Conversion of a `71 Cuda to a `70?
I would like to convert Revell`s `71 Cuda to a `70, but I am having trouble finding parts for the conversion. There was a kit made a while back from an aftermarket company (can`t remember who) that looked pretty good, but that kit is no longer made. Has anyone here successfully built a `70 Cuda?
As most everyone knows, the Revell `70 AAR kit is terribly innaccurate, and I am fairly sure the front and rear from that kit wont fit on the `71 since they are two different scales. |

MPB Detail Products made the old conversion, long OOP. It was pretty nice...IIRC it was for making the AAR Barracuda.
The Monogram/Revell '71 Hemi and the really bad '70 AAR are both 1/24 scale...the AAR was based on the old Monogram Challenger T/A. The parts might work, but the roof is wrong etc. Perry's Resin makes a good '70 resin conversion for the AMT snap kit '74 Barracuda. The AMT kit has the best proportions IMHO, and the scale is more traditional for American iron. Just yesterday Lookout Design announced they have a new resin conversion for making a '70 out of the '71 Monogram Hemi kit. Looks decent...
