In progress Chrysler 300C

Andy Jones · 02-22-2006, 01:49 PM

I know I shouldn't be starting anything else at the moment but this arrived on Monday and after staring at it for awhile I began wondering what would happen if one was imported into Japan and got the VIP treatment.
I'd got an Aoshima DAD Aristo kit lying around so I stole the bodykit parts and with a bit of kitbashing here's the result. I need to extend the side skirt slightly at the front and also deepen the sideskirt to match the depth of the front & rear bumpers. There's some filling & tidying up required but I'll post more progress as I make it. Undecided on wheels at the moment.

Thanks for looking
Andy

looks great so far. the VIP look in't so far fetched, becouse the 300C IS available in Japan. so i'm sure there are some 300C's that have a VIP look already. I have a feeling that where going to see the 300C in an Aoshima box soon.

I kinda like it, it has Magnum wheels. which give it a more aggressive look.

Ha, sounds like me. I just can't help myself when I buy a new kit, I just have to start messing with it. That's why I had to stop buying so many, I now have like 20 models that I tinkered with but never finished

damn my lack of self control, lol. I know this will look good no matter which way you go with it. I will stay posted.

Wasn't very keen on the sideskirts from the Aristo kit so decided made some simple ones up from plastic sheet. Still undecided on the rims but here's another option.

Thanks for looking
