1/24 1970 Challenger Rally or Flat, stock Hood?

[impcon]

Does anyone know if there is a resin 1/24 rally hood available? I have been looking around and can't seem to come up with anything. I'd take a stock, flat hood as my second choice but I really like the rally hood. I have a built up that I have torn down and stripped that I want to redo but it's missing the hood. So, I thought why not try something besides the usual shaker hood?

I bought a flat hood for my '71 pace car build from Time Machine Resin, I think he has the Twin Scoop hood too.

Ops, mine are 1/25 for the AMT kit, I just read you want the 1/24 parts. Sorry.

I just did some minor googling and couldn't find ANY 1/24 resin Challenger hoods. It MIGHT be possible to work over a 1/25 hood to fit by adding material to both sides and the rear edge. Not a perfect solution but sometimes you have to work with what you can get.

Thanks Rich,

You're probably right. I have been searching but sometimes someone knows of an obscure source for after market parts. I don't know what happened to the hood from my car but it is no where to be found. I did buy a resin rally hood for the 1/25 AMT convertible that I have so I will check and see if your suggestion will be workable. The nice thing with plastic is that you can add to it and take away from it fairly easily much of the time. Have a merry Christmas and thank you for the response.

The late Mike Watgen made one in the early '90s, but I don't think anyone has made such a hood since. IIRC he had a full 1/24 R/T conversion set for the 1/24 Monogram '70 Challenger T/A kit.

The 1/24 Arii '74 Challenger hood is not a good fit on the Monogram body, either.
