Diesel Gypsy Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Oh yeah a Charger !!!!!! I’ve read good things about this kit on the net & although I’m not particularly into modern cars I find this kit tickling my fancy. Are you going to build it as a highway patrol interceptor or a cruiser? I’m looking forward to following this build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

llking Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 OK I'll be getting back to this one in the next few days since I have finished my P-47 for that GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifer54 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 That does look good. I've learned something from this as well. For some reason, I'd assumed that the Charger, like most modern European cars, was front-wheel-drive with a transverse mounted engine. I now know that's not the case, and there is still hope. . . Also is this what Jim Brass drives in CSI Vegas? I think it is. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

llking Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 I painted the interior blue/gray and then I added a nuetral wash to bring out some of the highlights and to add some depth then assembled. The body is primed and it should have paint on it tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyC Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 That looks fantastic progress so far and look forward to seeing it finished. I have a soft spot for the Charger just 'looks' great. I was in FLA in June this year and was given the option at the rental of having a Charger for me and the family...sorely tempted but impractical for 5 of us plus suitcases...should have taken the Charger and tipped the kids...
