GREAT tip on the texturing of the dash with super low pressure on the AB!!!!
assembling the interior
added some plug boots on the engine
heres the fan belt, I thinned all the belts using the knife blade.
Beautiful!!! You making great job and fast!
painted the dash, I use super light air pressure to get the texture on the flat black paint.and thin wire to make the gauge bezels
painted up the grill
the doog WOW, James--there's just no comparing or competing with the work you do--STUNNING, as always. That weathered engine is perfect, and that embossing powder looks great! Where the heck do you get that? I never heard of it?

most dollar stores have it. mainly in silver or white. but i paint it whatever color is needed.
James you never cease to amaze!!!! WOW that is really looking great!!!
Doog, you can get it in the scrapbooking section of wherever they have scrapbooking sections lol. Sister scrapbooks alot and I have heard her say she uses it. normally used with a heat gun that makes it puff up a bit. HTH!
Awesome! I'm jealous of the work you do JT.
stuck some paint on . no clear coat either, I wanted a factory look so I only polished the enamel paint using some scratch X.
"thats detail master wire, about 2 bucks and you get enough for about 3 cars. I normally use "wrapping wire" its the same size you can find it at radioshack. but its impossible to find it in yellow, that cost 5 bucks but you get a spool of it enough for like 100 cars lol"
Radio Shack sells 50 spools for $3.99 in blue, red and white but Isn't that the same wire used in the phone cable in your house?
The Challenger looks great!
On Ed's bench, ???
Thanks. I'll keep my eye out for the wire next time I swing by my LHS. Keep up the great builds.
JT, I've been following all your builds as you post them and your work is amazing to say the least, I'm definitely a fan. You certainly crank out a lot of quality builds, do you ever get time to sleep. lol
Cheers,

more body work. The window trim on the front and side windows was poorly engraved and would have disappeared under a layer of paint.so I made new ones from some stretched sprue and sanded them to shape. I also sanded off the "chrome trim" around the wheel openings, i never liked the look of that on muscle cars. I'll throw some primer on later and check how its looking and if i need to tweak it.Oh and I re scribed all the panel lines so there nice and deep!
Brogar That engine looks incredible. Nice job with the weathering. What did you use for the ignition wires? I'm building a 70 Mustang and would like to include ignition wires on it.

James, that is one of the finest engines I've ever seen!
So long folks!
Wow! That engine looks awesome, and the interior looks great. I'm anxious to see the end result of this Challenger.
gunkified the engine bay a little, just wanted it lightly weathered.the interior is flocked I use embossing powder for that.
Ok! The engine looks REAL!!!!
I did a pastel wash, mix pastel dust with water & slop it on. let it dry then wipe off most of it leaving some were you want it
Looks great!!! How did you use for the "grease"?
gotta have some grease and gunk on the old engines!
Great start! looking forward! :)
gonna start on this one. it will be "go mango" for the color.
not much to show yet. painted the engine. did pre shading on it to give it some character. I'll add some washes on it after i stick all the parts on.the spacer on the carb is so i can use an aluminum air cleaner
also working on filling in those holes that were for the hinges. since this model is based on a diecast it had huge ugly holes there! that are not suppose to be there! lola bit more putty and sanding here still to do
