converted this one from Revells 68 Dodge dart, some parts were cast, engine came from a Lindberg kit, and some parts were scratch built.

AWSOME effort John, that is a real work of art, top job on all the scratch building mate, looks in about the same condition i found my own valiant ute, stashed in a barn recently. Compliments on the other 2 aswell, funny how the holden one has the most rust too. Rolling Eyes

WOW...DeeCee does the best paint jobs and you do the crappiest ....in the best way. That is a sweet build and with the other 2 ..well words fail me .

Fantastic work. Oh and the reason the Holden has the most rust is because it has spent the most time on the road ...unlike the other 2 always garaged at the 'mechanics' byebye rolf

No doubt about it you are an awesome mopar modeller. I can remember as a young adult towing the shell of one of these (by a holden) around our farm bush bashing. What fun it was until my cousin hit a larger sapling that refused to move. My brother kissed the dash and busted his mouth. It was much the same colour but had no front guards or grill. They were built Tonka tough. Nice build bowdown bowdown bowdown
