STU111 Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 G’day everyone. Just finished this, put it on here because as far as I know “Hemi Thunder” is a fictional name from Revell and not actually a real super stock drag car. ( please correct me if I’m wrong and it needs to be moved to the Drag car section ).This is the second car I built and the one where l discovered that Tamiya ts-13 clear eats decals for breakfast if applied too heavily. Dejected, I put it back in its box and forgot about it. Recently I found it and decided to resurrect it. Armed with a second set of decals courtesy of another 68 Dart kit I plan to build as the standard version, l stripped the body and started again. Long story short, here it is 3 years after I initially started it. The hood won’t close properly but that’s down to me as l may have mounted the radiator slightly too high. As always, any comments welcome. Cheers, Stuart. 6
70 Sting Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 That built up really nice. Precision painting on the chrome trim and even on the fan belt. 1
XYHARRY Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 Nice Dodge Dart there Stu, well worth saving. Well done. Cheers, David. ?? 1
espo Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 Great looking paint and decals. Like the engine detailing. "Hemi Thunder", well I wouldn't doubt but what someone somewhere may have used that name on such a 1:1 car. 1
ybsluos Posted September 28, 2024 Posted September 28, 2024 Nice Stuart! The cleanest building I have seen on this kit-Mark 1
