Well I had a few wheels and tunning bits left over from "other" kits. So I was looking for an old American Muscel car to tune up. So here it is..... 1/25 scale "Monogram" 69 Dodge 440 six pack. Not sure on the colour yet, possible a metallic grey with a carbon fibre or black bonnet? Heres my insperation....

Works for me ;D
Maybe drop it a few scale inches for good measure too?

Should be a cool project and I have to agree with Rich, if was lowered it would complete the look .

The engine is getting there, I didnt go for the common "Red" colour.... a nice blue to go with the metallic grey body.. Ive just put in the HT leads, need to colour them though. Hopefully I will the chassis painted and a base coat on the body today (depends if I can get home for lunch).....

Well Ive just managed to pop home and give the chassis and bonnet a coat of matt black, and the body has now got its coat of charcoal grey..... Give it a day or so and I can then slap on the laquer. (hopefully for a glass like finish) When I get in I'll post some pickies

Never mind the couple of days..... Its been in a nice warm room all night and day, so the paint is ok. So here's some shots of the laquer coat.....
