Completed 67 Dodge Coronet R/T

Finished this one off last night & like my recent muscle car builds it's a mix of the old & the new.
Revell kit sprayed in Citroen Poseidion Blue Metallic with 5 spoke rims from the Revell Shelby GT500 Mustang on Tamiya rear tyres & & Revell Tuner fronts. The EFI came from an AMT Chevelle kit and front seats are from the Tamiya 350Z. Interior colour is Tamiya neutral grey.






Thanks for looking
Andy

Perfection!! The blue you've chosen really works with the body lines of the car!

Great showcase of kit bashing at its finest. I like the mix of old and new.

That color is very eye catching, and the engine looks great as well. Nice job.

Very clean build, I love it. I bet that BMF was a lot of fun to put on

That's one nice ride. The blue goes really well on that car. The wheels really set off the low body stance. Great build. I just don't know what the mopar guys are going to think about putting a chevy into a dodge.

Great work Andy. You are a master of the BMF! Do you have a closer pic of the interior. I really like that color.

Re: Completed 67 Dodge Coronet R/T

Looks great, how do you complete them so quickly? Do you bother to detail the underneath of the car or omit it to speed things up? I've noticed that you don't include pictures.

I very rarely detail the chassis because:

1) It's not seen normally.
2) I usually have to modify/remove suspension parts to lower the ride height
3) I'm lazy and it means I can complete kits quicker.

That's how I justify it to myself anyway !.

Cheers
Andy

BTW/ Thanks for the comments - much appreciated

That makes me feel better I was beginning to think that I was just extremely slow! And you're right you can definitely get a lot more done!

Thanks Zlaja
No real secret with the BMF I just give it a good rub with a soft cloth once it's been applied - although I think BMF do a polish for it.
Cheers
Andy
