'68 Charger
Here she is.
I went with the kit decals for a change.
Wheels & tyres are Fujimi. Just don't count the studs...
This Revell chrome is very thin and rubs off far too easily - hence the bumper sticker

Re: '68 Charger
Thanks folks.
Mopar - Having shaved the door handles and with it sitting up in the air like that (stock front with race rear BTW) the body sides just looked ike they needed something there to break them up.
Plus I have a huge folder full of decals that I never use.
Plus no-one ever uses the decals on the kit they came with (almost like we're rebelling against being told what to do...).

Re: '68 Charger
So it was you who caused the road toll? I didn't notice that sticker on your ute BTW.
Nice Charger mate! It doesn't look too bad at all with the kit decals - brings out the boy racer in you. Well done Fred.

Thanks Bones.
It's White Knight Metaltones Green (it's called something like peppermint?) enamel under Zero Paints Green Candy Acrylic. Then Zero Paints Red Candy Acrylic up the sides.
It really pops in the sun. Maybe when it comes back (in September) i'll get some outside pics...

No probs with the colour, but those rear wheels and tyres are WAY too small for a race car...

Thanks Carps.
Bryce - they're treaded tyres and there's no cage either.
This is supposed to be street driven - all show and as much go as a dual quad 426 Hemi provides. Built for pulling birds on a Friday night...

Re: '68 Charger
Very impressive work Zen. It looks like it's out of some U.S. model mag!... are you sure you built this? Colour is sweet!
Re: '68 Charger
Thanks folks.
Shoey, see it with the sun making the red candy on the sides pop and you wouldn't doubt who picked the colours
