Hello there! I'm new to Modelcarsmag and I wanted to start off with a build I did about 2 years ago of one of my favorite car movies and the best version of a 1969 R/T Charger in my book. This is the car from Dirty Mary Crazy Larry

I positioned the wheels turned just because that car didn't see to many straight roads. haha

Awesome build Brandon and welcome to MCM. Its funny I was just looking at different movie cars and couldn't remember the name of that movie so thanks! What kit did you use?

NICE build Brandon, the car was the best part of the entire movie, I have always felt that it was a cheezy knockoff of Vanishing Point my alltime favorite car flick!! great job!! :D

I use the Revell 68 Charger 2n1 kit #85-4202 and also parts from a Pro Modeler 69 Charger kit. The wheels were from the parts box. I just sprayed them with some rattle can aluminum. Does anyone know where I can find a replica of the police car that chased them at the end of the movie?

I liked that movie as it was kinda corny but had some great chasing. Great looking Charger Brandon you nailed it right on the money ! ! !

Now you can make the blue 66 Impala and you will have both cars.. LOL ! !

Great looking build!always like the side stripe decals on that car,and incase anyone's interested TCM is showing the movie tomorrow evening at 11pm pacific time.

Very nice model. I really like the CD antenna. I was in High School when that film came out so I ought to understand the dialogue but I just can't. What the heck does "unload" mean, as in "I think I'm gonna unload". They made it sound deep and philosophical but maybe it just meant vomit.

Supposedly the other car was a '68 Chevy. Weird that the actor following them around in a helicopter was killed by a movie helicopter crashing on him (Twilight Zone).

i'll assume you're talking about the original movie and then ask if you've seen the remake?

ow yes talking about the original. Didn't know they did a remake, but not surprised

other than a few cool cars, you didn't miss much
