Thanks, "the man in black" is awesome 👌. I built the first General Lee in the late 70's early 80's when the first editions came out. 🙂

[@moparnut6286]

I like the alternate colors on the general...and I liked that you showed the early version which they used the 69 charger 500 version that was a seprate model sold to the public it had a flush front grille "I think incuded in the model kit"... along with the window plug in the rear and was raced that way too... And eventually becoming a daytona charger. The wheels look great on your first general, I love slots I have a set on my real 74 charger... The turbines are cool too they even used a version of them on ramchargers and pickups up to 1993 or so.

[@davidchin350]

Thanks John, yeah I like the original release even with inaccuracies.😊

Thanks Thomas, yes definitely try the build again as a redemption kit.🙂

Great video, David! I love the color variety. If I remember correctly, there was an episode that actually had a green Charger. Don't remember the plot line or how it was used so pretty cool to see that you did a green one.👍👍

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Eric, now that I think about it, I should have done one in medium gray like the CSA uniform.

Thanks Glen, I had to try different colors since I can't picture building 4 same exact cars.😮

[@flyingfortressrc1794]

Man David now I'm wanting to build another General Lee. Lol
I know a lot of people like building General's out of the revell kits but I've always liked trying to make everything fit right on the MPC kits.
I've got a video of the black - before General charger and another one with the fast back kit like you have.
They are definitely looking good and the color variation between them is pretty cool too. 😁

[@davidchin350]

Thanks, I do like the 69 Chargers but didn't want to build all the same color. This video will make you build a General Lee. BTW I do have two B-17 Flying Fortress I will revisit soon.🙂

[@kdkustoms]

Awesome builds !

[@davidchin350]

You can never have enough 69 Chargers😁

[@onixfieroandscalemodelworks]

That’s a cool look back. I’m so used to seeing that car in orange, not sure if I could get used to it in another color..lol.. I picked up the country charger kit from mpc so I could build my own General lee. I’m going to checkout your first video. I like seeing how skills developed. My first videos since I started the scale models on you tube are horrible so don’t feel bad about your video quality, got to be better than mine..lol😂

[@davidchin350]

Thanks Onix, I hear the Revell Monogram 69 Charger is a better kit but you already have the Country Charger. I feel the same about GL but since I already built it in orange, I had to try it in different colors. Now I wish I had built one in medium gray like their CSA uniform.
