As a lifelong fan of Mopars, this Superbee was a must for my collection. This kit is another that I’ve tried to start a few times over the years and never got it rolling. I’ve decided to use a set of Fireball Modelworks wheels and tires and decided on a color for the build. I …
These old vans are awesome! The Little Red Wagon is also great, but it’s not the van. This will be my first resin kit build and I’m a bit intimidated. I bought both the Little Red Wagon and van body at the same swap meet. I’m guessing the body is a Jimmy Flintstone but I …
I bought this kit nearly 20 years ago and started building it. The original idea was to paint it true blue pearl but I used the wrong base and it didn’t turn out well. To make matters worse, the body was warped. I stuffed everything back into the box and set it aside. While eyeballing …
I bought this kit around 1995. It is one of the last kits in my collection that I bought during that time. I couldn’t say why it sat on the shelf for more than 20 years before I really started it but now it’s ready to be proudly displayed! Several years earlier, I painted the engine …
Originally, this model was a combination of two kits. I added a front suspension and rear axle from a 1970 GTX as well as the 440 from the same kit. I’ve tinkered with this kit over the years…primarily to get the stance right. When I built it, I painted the interior a khaki color and …
After I reworked my ’71 ‘Cuda I started to take a look at some of the other kits. The main premise of the rework on the ‘Cuda was to add detail to the chassis and engine bay. The body of this GTX was well done but everything else was rushed and minimally detailed. The scope …
You may say, there was no such thing as a 1982 Dodge Hemi Charger. That’s true, but it doesn’t mean I can’t build it that way! Pure kitbashing fun with this one. I recently finished building an identical Charger. When I discovered this kit, I wanted to build one that resembled the 1:1 that my …
Compared to the Chargers of the muscle car era, this one doesn’t quite live up to it’s name. However, during it’s time, performance was quite hard to come by. The motivation for this project was to build as close to a replica of the ’82 Charger my dad owned. I built this one along side …
This kit was originally finished in 2001. When I finished it, I threw on a set of parts box wheels with the intent on preparing a set of wheels for it. Several years later, I finally finished a set of wheels for it. In 2012, I decided to take care of the very tall ride …
I built a clear engine when I was a kid and I wanted to do another. This was a tedious but fun build. The valve train and other internal components were cumbersome but turned out awesome. I had built the internal portion of this kit about a year earlier. I stopped when I got to …
This is cheating! It is a die cast kit. I scrapped the nasty stock wheels and used wheels and tires from another Charger kit. I painted the interior and the engine to give it better detail. All together, it turned out really well. Completed: 2004
This GTX was a straightforward build. I did some minor shaving but otherwise, this is a box stock build. Completed: October 2002
This kit was built to replace one that I built as a kid. I think I tried to lower the front suspension by grinding away at the k-member but I couldn’t be sure. Beyond that, I added plug wires and a set of wheels from another kit. In 2012, I pulled this kit off the …
Built box stock, I really like the way this one turned out. I used the aftermarket wheels that came with the kit. Completed: 2001
After my first attempt at spraying this color was unsuccessful, I had to buy another kit and start over. I used white as the primer and I couldn’t build the color up properly. On the second body, I used grey primer and was much happier with the final results. Testors burgundy metallic is a sharp …
