Completed - 68 Dodge Dart

The Revell Mr Norm kit pretty much out of the box except for slight lowering, some additional engine detail and Pegasus Chrome T's & brake rotors.








Thanks for looking
Andy

Another stunner from AJ modelworks, you make me sick! j/k
Looking very nice, but the holes in the brake discs are too big imo...exept for that the car looks flawless!

To borrow a word from the 80's....."sanitary"! Everything I've seen you post as of late has a consistently clean, well styled look to it. Excellent work.

Re: Completed - 68 Dodge Dart

Awesome work Andy, love the colour combo... I tried to build this kit several years ago when I was inexperienced and found the body tub could NOT fit properly with the chassis and body together... did you have a similar problem and if so what did you do?

Re: Completed - 68 Dodge Dart

wow I don't think there is anything that I can say that can describe just how awesome that turned out Andy. The only word that comes to mind right now is incredible and that doesn't even begin to describe it...................*Ryan*

AJ, you have managed to crank out another beauty!!! Glad you went with the white top too.

As for the brakes DukeMan, that's the way Pegasus brakes are made. They are cast with open holes. Any smaller and it probably couldn't be done. It's not like taking kit discs and drilling them by hand with a #80 drill bit.

Re: Completed - 68 Dodge Dart

I love it! That's just a fantastic model. I do kind of agree with DukeMan, though not entirely - I think if you painted the calipers another color (gray like BAER? gold Brembos?) it would make them look less giant and more appropriate. Nevertheless, I agree with everyone else, just a beautiful, clean build - just as we expect from you!

Yea I know that the pegasus discs come like that, maybe I should have said something like; "looks pretty good but I would´nt have used those discs, the holes are tadly too big IMO". But lets not focus too much on the brakes, after all it´s just details.
