Lovefordgalaxie Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 This is a Monogram model kit. It's a very old build, I think I built it around '94, or '95 when cars around here still had yellow licence plates with two letters and four numbers. It's my only Chrysler product, as I'm not a fan, I'm more into Fords, like you will notice if you see my builds When I moved, back in '07, this model broke, it's easy to see at the windshield corners where I glued it back together. I left the old Dodge inside a box for a long time, because I couldn't decide if I would strip the paint to do a better repair, or not, but decided to just glue it, and let it show it's "battle scars" like the old guy he is The car came molded in metallic blue, wich I hated, and also came with that oversized Monogrem tires and wheels. The wheels were not the steel wheels correct for a Super Bee of this vintage, so I solved two problems at once replacing the tire/wheel combo with items from my parts box. I didn't do a great job on it when I built it, as I didn't use to do a lot of research at the time. I just found out about the wheels because of a magazine picture. The paint used was Colorgin brand spray can bought at a super market. Foil is household aluminum foil kept in place with white glue. 1969 Dodge Super Bee by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1969 Dodge Super Bee by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1969 Dodge Super Bee by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1969 Dodge Super Bee by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1969 Dodge Super Bee by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr 1969 Dodge Super Bee by Lovefordgalaxie, on Flickr
skymnky721 Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Great job,,looks better than my builds from back then,,lol
rmvw guy Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 It looks good Tulio, especially from a Ford Guy. I can't believe the nice job you did on the foil. I, like you, have only one Mopar in my collection a '41 Plymouth.
Speedfreak Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Good job Tulio. It looks good, and , your skills have improved! That foil job is incredible, considering what you used! Edited February 24, 2014 by Speedfreak
GeeBee Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 That's one clean build, the foil looks superb, can't believe it's just household foil ...
Chris White Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 very nice, the body damage makes it look mean
Mr Stock Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Brilliant work Tulio, one of my favourite muscle cars of all time.
Platerpants Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Nice looking build that is as old as me
