Whew! Just made it count as a 2013 build. cheers Finished 3 minutes ago.

Started life out as the AMT Fast and furious Dodge Charger. A real pig of a kit that I decided to do something with, and when the Work ute build came along, it seemed the perfect opportunity. 

Cut the roof off, moved it forwards and then chopped it to give it an even look.
Found and modified a tray to fit.
Cut the interior in half and made it suit, and then had to make a ute rear window that looks the part.
Scratch built; Tarp, Jerry can Cylinder head and damaged tyre/rim.

All in all, I'm very happy with the way it turned out... Pity it took Soooo long  Rolling Eyes

Beat ya!  Very Happy Razz Laughing 

Very nice.  I love the colour but then you all probably guessed that.  Wink
The shape of the back of the window openings makes it look like a 68-70/71-74 Hybrid.  The whole concept works well.
Good one.

Looks cool Adam, Reminds me a lot of that valiant coupe, in Mad Max II, that has been turned into a ute and has the big dart gun in the back.
