cruz Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Built this completely box stock for a specific project that I can't say much about. I promise I will update you guys later. Color is Limelight mixed by MCW with Testors Wet Look, wet sanded, compounded, polished and waxed. Still hate the fact that this body is still way off when it comes to design but it does look pretty good when done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modlbldr Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 That looks very nice Cruz! I love this car and, although the kit is inaccurate, I still bought one and intend to get a couple more. Your paint looks fabulous. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Beautiful looking finish on this and the undercarriage looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drodg Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) So the front end height looks better. Every one except yours looks too high in the front and realistically the back end on the 1:1 car is a tad higher than the front. Good job. I know when I built the Hemi Cuda I used the custom setting for the front end and assume the AAR Cuda comes with the extra parts from the Hemi Cuda kit.

Snake45 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Sweet! As Letterman used to say (back when he was still funny), "You got all of that one, my friend!" That's probably the best build of the Revell '70 Cuda kit I've seen. It actually looks like a '70 Cuda in most of the pics! Well done and model on!

I added big and littles to this one just as the real one. If you use the tires in the kit, it will not be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972coronet Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Another outstanding build , Marcos ! To me the biggest disappointments with this kit are : 1.) Dana 60 differential . Needs an 8 3/4 . 2.) Tyres . You obviously got that handled -- Revell dropped the ball . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classicgas Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Which kit is this? The 1/24 or 1/25? Looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericanMuscleFan Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Very nice and clean build Marcos, the paint is gorgeous! It would cost a lot at a Barrett Jackson auction! Well Done!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
