Hi everybody! Today I want to introduce a car that I did months ago. This car is a Dodge Charger like the one driven by Stuntman Mike in Tarantino's Death Proof. Although in the movie the car with a skull and bones is a Chevy Nova I have adapted decals for this Dodge.

Chevrolet Nova:

The original kit is Monogram.

From a Carrera Chevrolet Camaro I took the chassis, braids, and cockpit. I had to enlarge 5mm. the chassis to fit it in the body with a credit card.

The kit had a openable hood so I decided to keep it in the slot car.

The painting job has been done with Vallejo primer and black matt spray from Tamiya. Hope you like it.

I like it, but I think you will not be happy how it runs :blink: due to the Carrera chassis, but it is sure a good looking car. ;)
For some reason I'm a sucker for flat painted cars. :)
Love the credit card solution. :laugh2:
Take care

Not a snob in this hobby, after all it will be gone, if we keep on going like we do, and I have nothing to prove so I keep on posting because I have nothing to gain.
It's our duty to remember the past so we can have a future.
