My favorite kit of all time: `70 Challenger T/A (pics inside)

This is probably the 5th one of these kits I have built, and I have 6 more left! :eek: :D I used Tamiya light green spray, which is surprisingly close to the Chrysler light green some of these cars came in. One thing I have learned from this kit is that "The Treatment" model wax works wonders!!!! It makes the finish very smooth and glossy, and fills in tiny scratches from wet sanding/compound. I`ll post pictures of my other Challenger for comparison once I get it back from the contest it was in.
I am looking forward to seeing a real one of these in real life:

Nice work.You have six more,you must really love that kit.:D

interesting on the wax - where you'd get it?

btw, I can definitely see why this is your favorite kit, it's a very smooth and aggressive muscle car! I can almost hear the rumble of the V8!

You will have a PM in the next few minutes :cool:

Thanks, guys. The other 6 kits are actually factory sealed originals from 1984, so they probably wont get built. The model wax I found in a local hobby store. I am pretty sure you can get it through mail order though. I think I remember seeing it in Scale Auto Enthusiast.

Muscle cars ain't my thing but i have always liked the Challenger and that is one damn fine model there sonny!!!;)

How nice Hawk !, I take off my hat. Very nice. It gives me ideas also. I have the `72 Challenger Rallye from Otaki and well , watching yours , apple green it´s superb! What about the engine.Do you let us to take a little look?:smoker2:

what number is the TS? I have an AAR cuda that is supposed to be green and i am just looking for different colors that it could be.

Nice car! I purchased a car like that, then threw the decals onto my dark green ITR.

I`m not sure what TS color it is. Unfortunately, I already threw the can away.:( Would TS-17 sound right? I know it says on the top of the can "light green" and looks minty green.
I`ll try to get more pics of the engine and undercarriage if you want to see them.

Wonderful job on that charger. I am loving the old cars more and more :D

Ah, that's one of the muscle cars I'd love to own IRL someday....

There's a 440 roadrunner GTX around town here with almost the same paint job, I think your model looks better than his real car :D
