Never mind, just saw this post. Awesome build either way you go with the wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It uses the Revell 68/69 Dart doner chassis. Going to be factory stock with a AMT 71 Duster 340 engine/trans. I really like this one! 70 darts are beautiful cars! That 68 dart kit is a great base too! Are you gonna go with the Dana 60 or the 8 3/4 axle? I’ve got a Hemi under glass barracuda that I’ve reverted to ‘factory stock’ because I wanted accurate floor pans and firewall before I started customizing it. Engine wise, It’s now a tossup between a turbo’d 340 4 gear or a 413 with a cross ram and 4 gear. I stole a Dana 60 out of a 68 dart kit for the axle in that car too!

Cheers, Mathias As always thanks for commenting Mathias, cant wait to get some colour on this LC Wheels and tyres I printed myself, painted with Alclad chrome and Vallejo 70.950 black. Wheels are 19' Staggered GM Magnum 500 and 3D files are ZFORCEMODELWORX they were up scaled to 19.5mm. Tyres are Mickey Thompson Sportsman low profile and 3D files are from MORRIESKUSTOMS they were rescaled to suit the wheels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooltime-fan Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 Revell's 68 Chevelle with some bits of the 67 pro street one Engine is going to be the 396 of the kit but with the pro street exhaust. I hope it pushs out enough power then to burn some rubber on the shelf when it is finally under glass Paint is Tango-red from Audi RS E-TRON GT 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I have decided to build this Pro Stock Dart instead of building it factory stock. I have everything to build it so it will be getting a Dana 60 rear and a Hemi using the Revell 68 Hemi Dart kit as a doner.One of these days I will get started on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC FitiWerks Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 The bench is never empty! I had someone tell me it's cheating to use 3d printed parts at the last HMCN.... New WIP. Chevy box van. Everything will be 3d printed for this build. I don't care how much resin I go through! More pics as they come off the printers 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyRiggins Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 A long benched project that needs to get back on track to completion. I made the rear truck arms out of dental glosser picks, It just hit me one night that those could work as neat looking suspension components. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutalform Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Revell 68 Chevelle. This is the red car on the box kit, but I’m gonna steal the stripes from the Germany kit for the hood and trunk. Still needs clear. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Bunch of cool mock ups. Sometimes that is the best part of the hobby. Got my 32 ford four door resin from drag city castings, or Ed Fluck. Sorry i forget his site name. Looking at using pegasus crossbar rims n tires with automotive touch up paint it is actually fords ember glo paint. I am using it on a amt 66 galaxie 500 7 litre. Of course this is not on top of the to do list yet so may be a while before much gets done. But then again who knows. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
