horsepower Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Just thought I'd let you know what the thing is in the second picture, it appears as though there is a bird of some sort flying on the left side of the picture, I'm not a big bird watcher, but it doesn't appear to be a bald eagle. lol
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 21, 2014 Author Posted April 21, 2014 ust decided to paint the hood satin black. Still DeciDing if I like it.
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 21, 2014 Author Posted April 21, 2014 Got the rear end done, just have to do the charger logo. Not the neatest foil work around the tail light bezel but im some what happy with it. If I had my brushes I would have just painted it, oh well.
BIG NICKY Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 it still looks real nice...I did the 69 charger from the mpc general lee kit and I still cant get the rear bumper to fit
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Has anyone built this kit with the 440? all Ive seen on here from a quick search, is the hemi engine...
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) Got everything all wired up, not much. Compared to what I see on this forum, but its increasing my skills slowly. Edited April 24, 2014 by Mrdarkmonkey96
freakshow12 Posted April 24, 2014 Posted April 24, 2014 Looks good to me! Hit that oil filter with some white and you are set
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 24, 2014 Author Posted April 24, 2014 Looks good to me! Hit that oil filter with some white and you are set I was just scrounging through my paint supply and I'm fresh out! Might have to raid the little sisters finger paint supply! Nice work on the paint. even if its purple. Thank you!
rustybill1960 Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Very, VERY SHINY! And for the first time with BMF I would say that You have a definite knack for it! Anthony this build is shaping up very nice! Looking forward to seeing more Thank You for sharing Later
TFchronos Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Very nice work! That black hood looks good with that purple..
StevenGuthmiller Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 My favorite Charger, the '68. Something about the round quad tail lights I always liked. Made it a little more unique. Looks like you're doing this one right. Paint looks great! I keep eyeing the one in my stash. Some day I'll get going on it. Steve
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Posted April 28, 2014 Thanks guys! I appreciate the comments. To be honest I painted the hood black because I was low on clear coat and I didnt feel like waiting a week to do the hood, and was worried it wouldnt come out as good as the rest of the body.
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 29, 2014 Author Posted April 29, 2014 looks fantastic so far, great foil work. Thanks! I appreciate it. I had some trouble with the wheel well trim since the clear was so thick but I think I did an okay job.
slusher Posted April 29, 2014 Posted April 29, 2014 Model will look great with the black hood Anthony, and the engine looks great also..
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted April 29, 2014 Author Posted April 29, 2014 Model will look great with the black hood Anthony, and the engine looks great also.. Thanks! I've been test fitting some stuff and the heater hoses may have to be cut slightly because of the spark plug wires being in the way, but im sure Ill figure something. If its that much of a problem ill just make my own.
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted May 3, 2014 Author Posted May 3, 2014 Been having some difficulty fitting the lower part of the font bumper, I knew I should have just glued it on before paint.
Mrdarkmonkey96 Posted May 4, 2014 Author Posted May 4, 2014 Got a bit done today. Painted the grill and added a some engine detail.
