Hart's parts Resin has a conversion set for the Monogram/Revell '69 Super Bee. It comes with that hood, the 3 tail light panel and side scoops. You can also add a bench seat to the set for a little more $$. I recently ordered it, but have not received it yet, so I can not speak to it's quality.

Maybe he does more than one, but if you look on the site, the one I ordered said it was for the Revell kit. It is under the conversion section.

What do you do for the underhood parts? An R/T wouldn't be a 6-Pack, so you would need a Hemi or a single 4-barrel intake for the kit 440, plus the Ramcharger air cleaner and underhood ducting, right? I assume that the Ramcharger hood ducting is interchangeable with the Plymouth "Coyote Duster" Air Grabber stuff?

I was thinking of using the Hemi from the Revellogram '71 Cuda in mine, because I have an extra one. If you are using the twin scoop hood, maybe the ducting from the AMT '70 Super Bee under the hood? A 440 six pack air cleaner from the '70 GTX would be close and could be modified to work on the kit 440. Hart's parts also make a stock RT hood that has that little dome in the center for the current 1/24 Super Bee, so you could use the 4bbl intake from the recently reissued '71 GTX. You would need to find an air cleaner, I am sure there is something out there that would work.(Revell '68/69 Charger or Dart?). Of course, if you are looking for super detailing, the older 1/24 Monogram/Revell muscle cars will need some upgrading, whether that's part swapping or scratch building. I think they look pretty good when they are built and they really do go together nicely.

i would use  either a 426 hemi from a charger  or a 440 magnum engine from a charger  both of which were  options for  5th gen coronet r/t

All true, but dual scoop hood uses ducting like this underneath. I am not sure where you get it in 1/24 scale.

i  never  even paint the underside of my hoods as i set them on top  of the roof of the car when i take pics of  the engine bay  so  not having that under hood piece  that would not be a  issue  for me
