MPC Cavalier to Pontiac J2000 conversion.....

[MsDano85gt]

Finally got my holy grail kit the J-2000 drag car

Not sure who here on the forum was the one always looking for "pro street" chassis stuff, but this may become available real soon if it does not get used here......

wish me luck I have only seen 1 picture of a model transformed from chevy to pontiac dosn't look too hard though just a nose job and a tail jobber?

Interesting?

should be interesting, took me long enough to get the J2000 kit

I had one of these j2000 and its sister kit pro-street Baretta. They were great kits. I don't recall how accurately detailed they were, but fun builds that went together well.

the "pro street" chassis is crazy awsome on this kit I want to say the more modern revell/ monogram issues used the same frame/ format and very similar parts like the pro street 55'

upon further inspection of bodys the mpc and monogram kits share pretty much all the same details altho the pro street body is smooth ( no rub strips) belt line door trim I'm really going to try to make a "factory looking car out of the remenants of the J body glue the cavalier front and rear on it and build my own chassis possibly a rwd platform...... we will see
