DWR Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 (edited) Correction: Avenger not Daytona I am starting a Revell Avenger funnycar kit and I would like to know if the door lines should be filled, same goes for the hood lines that are molded into the body.

whale392 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 As far as I remember them, yes the lines should be filled in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I have to agree with whale here. I have always filled the door lines on the funny cars I have done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragracer Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 After reading your post, I want and searched Dodge Avenger Funny Cars & then clicked on the images link & checked out some photo's of the Avenger F/C's, from all the pictures I checked it sure looked like all the bodies were smooth, no hood or door lines, so Fill em in!

tbusch Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) Guys, Some Funny Car bodies do have door panel lines, they are real small and would not show on a scale model but they are their. Looked at my photos I took at Gateway, you have to look real close on a large pic but they are their. I do not post photos online but if someone wants me to send them a pic or two I can e-mail them to them. tb Edited March 25, 2011 by tbusch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWR Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Hi Chris, Thank you for the photo, did you fill in the hood line as well? Thanks.....Dwayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Force Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 well I think the rules stipulates that Funny Car bodies must have door and hood lines, most of the NHRA Funny Cars I have seen has them, they are very faint but they are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MicroNitro Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I worked on a lot of 1:1 Avenger funny cars when I worked at mckinney race cars and they all had door and hood lines. All the funny cars that ever were in the shop also had door and trunk lines. I hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Hi Chris, Thank you for the photo, did you fill in the hood line as well? Thanks.....Dwayne Dwayne, this kit only had the door lines that I filled in. Don't remember it having hood lines that I can think of.
