Engine bay is your typical very realistic and excellent work. How come you are using the chassis from the 1970 kit?

Your engines areone of the best in the business. They're so realistic. Subtle weathering just make them almost like they were used. Maybe one day you can make a tutorial for us inexperienced modellers on how to make a great eingine bay like that?

the chassis in the daisy duke kit is crap! lol the engine bay doesnt fit proper big gaps etc, everything is molded on the bottom. just one of the crappy old mpc chassis lol

some people use the amt 71 charger as a donor but i think the super bee one is just as good . and you always have the pro street option with that one too

dash painted up, I just dry brushed the gauges since there not that visible when the dash is installed

added "glass" to them with epoxy and also added lenses to the shades the same way
