View Full Version : 71 Johan Cuda project!! 71 Johan Cuda project!! modelfan 05-06-2008, 03:28 PM This is a link to a Cuda work in progress. The photos of the orange Cuda were added but they don't have anything to do w/ the other ones, it's just another Johan model that I bought at a very good price and decided to include it with this batch of photos. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/barracuda%20project/barracuda009.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/barracuda%20project/CopyofCuda092.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/barracuda%20project/CopyofCuda097.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/barracuda%20project/DSC04715-1.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/barracuda%20project/DSC04725.jpg modelfan 05-06-2008, 03:36 PM http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/barracuda%20project/Cuda010.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/CopyofCuda046.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/CopyofCuda049.jpg http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/mmmdrc/CopyofCuda045.jpg Sorry for the different shades of green from one photo to another, my basement is pretty dark but the more accurate color is the lighter one. This color is actually called Citrus Yellow Metallic from the Testors Lacquers and it was a Chrysler color! I had to Alclad the headers as well as the bumpers for the kit was in pretty bad shape, also had to do a lot of cleaning of the parts but all in all it is the most accurate kit of the Barracuda out there right now specially after revell screwed up the long awaited reissue of this kit!!!:headshake stump 05-08-2008, 02:50 AM Hey Cruz, really love that colour you chose for this...:smokin: Every time I check it out, I like it a little bit more....

I saw that you ordered valve covers. modelfan 05-10-2008, 11:32 PM Is that the engine from the kit? I saw that you ordered valve covers.That is the engine w/ the kit, I decided not to use the metal valve covers after seeing how nice the Alclad Chrome came out on the ones on the kit.:smokin: :smokin: Viccario 05-11-2008, 07:55 AM Looks cool, I like the colour and the paint finish is excellent.
