1974 Plymouth Barracuda

[RACINE ISHRAQUR RAZA]

Here's a build from a year ago. 1974 Plymouth Barracuda in Lucerne Blue Poly. This is my idea of what Mike Brady(Robert Reed) would drive if The Brady Bunch had continued for another season beyond March 1974. This is one car with a solid roof that Bobby Brady(Mike Lookinland) cannot ruin with his umbrella! There's one episode where Bobby, Greg, and his girlfriend are at the Drive-In and Bobby opens the umbrella when the top is going up. The sharp end of the umbrella rips the convertible top.

The dude behind the wheel is the disco era man from the 1976 Dodge Dart kit. I took off a small slice of his belly and his bottom with a Dremel to make him slightly lower to fit inside my 1974 Barracuda. Prior to that his head was hitting the roof and the interior tub wouldn't close like it should.

Another very cool build. Disco man is a nice touch.

Great looking Barracuda, very neatly done. I love the driver figure you’ve added. It’s a nice touch. When l built military aircraft I always painted the pilot figures and put them in. ??

Damn! That's the snap kit? You got everything that one had to offer, and more. Great color choice and build! 

[RACINE ISHRAQUR RAZA]

@Ragtop ManThanks! Yes, that's the AMT snap kit, similar to the dealer promo models of this car.
