LMDAVE Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) The end came together pretty fast on this one. Couple of mishaps during final assembly. You can see in the final pic, the rear bumper under molding wouldn't fix correctly, I made peace with it since everything else turned out well. The hood just came in from the other kit so this now matches the car I was going after, see last pic. And this is the car I modeled it after but black interior. And no...that's not my wife...that's Miss Alabama Edited March 6, 2015 by LMDAVE
mikemopar70 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Cool Mopar, cool color choice and the black vinyl top is a nice touch!
Nacho Z Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 I think you have a winner there, Dave! Nice color combo. Very nice.
rickd13 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Where did you get the different hood for the car? I have been wanting to do this kit also, but I wanted a hood like the one you used and I know that the Revell GTX kit comes with a different hood.
LMDAVE Posted March 6, 2015 Author Posted March 6, 2015 Thanks guys! Rick, I actually waited for the discontinued Monogram 1971 Plymouth Satellite package to show up on EBAY (One pops up every now and then), it has this hood, so it looks like at some point I'll be building a Satellite like this but it will have the hood from the GTX kit.

Thanks for response. Your car looks great.
'70 Grande Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Your build looks great... Miss Alabama looks... hmmm... great, too!
Quick GMC Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Looks very nice and clean. Did you take pics with your cell phone? It looks like the lens might be a little smudgy, the pictures are kind of hazy. Clean the lens with a soft cloth and I think the colors would pop a bit more. I got into the habit of wiping my phone lens on the inside of my shirt before I take pictures, it's helped a lot.
Stray Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Very nice! And, the car is nice, too. I see what you did there. And I completely agree!
