Mopar - D Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) This is a resin body I picked up on eBay that also included a Revell 69 Charger as a donor. I'm going with Hemi orange and a black interior. I've started trimming the chassis to fit and going with the Revell interior tub but using the 70 resin seats. I cut out the rear resin seat and also the front fender inter panels. Your comments and recommendations are always welcome. Edited August 1, 2014 by Mopar - D
CJ1971 Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Keen on how it turns out... I'm interested in getting Modelhaus's 70 resin charger... ?
Mopar - D Posted July 4, 2014 Author Posted July 4, 2014 Cliff I have on order new front and rear bumper from Modelhaus for this.
Bob Ellis Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Nice project, the '70 is my favorite year of '68-70.
Mopar - D Posted July 4, 2014 Author Posted July 4, 2014 Thanks for the comments I plan to get some good time on the bench over the holiday weekend.
om617 Posted July 5, 2014 Posted July 5, 2014 Nice project, the '70 is my favorite year of '68-70. X 2 Nice progress on this.
Mopar - D Posted July 6, 2014 Author Posted July 6, 2014 Some updates from today. Started work on the engine, detailed the wheels and more work on the body the resin body had a couple air bubbles that needed to be fixed. Also checked to see if the hood would close with the Hemi
philo426 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Cool Project!Model master international orange airbrushes super smooth with great color saturation.
freakshow12 Posted July 6, 2014 Posted July 6, 2014 Great start. Looks like a bit of work to get the hood/ bumper fitting properly
Mopar - D Posted July 6, 2014 Author Posted July 6, 2014 Spent time working on the interior today and found a better air cleaner in the parts box.
Mopar - D Posted July 7, 2014 Author Posted July 7, 2014 Fired up the air brush tonight with some Hemi orange.
Mopar - D Posted July 7, 2014 Author Posted July 7, 2014 Worked on the interior adding flocking and now have the seats glued in place. Also worked on the engine adding plug wires.
Mopar - D Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 Worked on getting the body ready for the 2nd coat and did another trial fit to see how it's going to look. While I'm waiting for the Modelhaus bumpers to arrive I'm working on the existing bumper to see what I can do with it to make it fit and add chrome to it. Here's today's progress pictures. Thanks for your comments.
