Go Mango Challenger T/A

Posted by 7055 on Saturday, April 8, 2006 6:45 PM

Their was no kit for a Challenger T/A in 1:25 so I had to do some major kit bashing between an AMT 1:25 Challenger kit and the Revell 1:24 Challenger T/A kit among many others, and lots of modifying to make 1:24 fit 1:25. I figured it was about time somebody built an E-body in a high impact color other than Sublime or Plum Crazy, so I painted my Challenger T/A Go Mango. Its built Factory Stock.

Read what the plates say.

The spark plug wires are in the correct firing order.

Please see the rest of the pictures on My Website

Factory correct body color overspray, I like to build my models factory correct to every detail. You see, Mopars were painted with the chassis in place and body colored overspray made it to the underside of the car.

Hey you forgot to add in the windshield wiper motor. Just kidding. That is awesome engine detail. Great build. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent. Love the color, too.

A day in the Corps is like a day on the farm; every meal is a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade... The Marine Corps is a department of the Navy? Yeah...The Men's Department.
