this is a monogram 70 challenger this was a pain in the neck I had to rebuild the roof then join it back to the body the resin hood was warped on 3 of the 4 corners the modern hemi engine I wanted to use would not fit the model as I did not have any spare 1970 style hemi engines was a mess I could not sand out all the ruff areas I had to use a set of monogram aar Cuda stripes and use a fine tip white paint pen to write r/t at the end of the stripes I painted body testors extreme lacquer fiery orange I painted the rims the side exhaust tips and hood scoop gun metal Grey the grille came from a die-cast hellcat challenger
 

I have a song that came out in 1970 playing in the background of the video
