    Oh the joys of some of the AMT kits. Good to always have a plan B, C and D for them.

      This one really needs a complete design overhaul. Luckily I'm making it a regular Charger

    I understand the frustration. I picked up a Revell/Monogram pro modeler Daytona a while back that looks to be very nice. It's on the list for a future build. At least the tin is very cool👍

      I'd love to try the Revell one! This one is turning into a regular Charger, and so far so good. Not a great kit, but looking decent!!

    Yeah I have that kit Chris and I'm not looking forward to getting into it! I am however looking forward to seeing your progress on your charger. 😎👍

    I built one of those a few years ago and I used about a pound of putty. You will get a plan for the kit. Thanks for sharing.

    I had one of these back in the early 90s - the front end pieces where a pain but I liked the end result- I also had an older (mpc) Charger 500 a few years earlier that came out pretty good- IMO the Revell is a better kit but they're kinda scarce and pricey if you find one on ebay - since this has the 500/Daytona body, the Charger 500 bumper and grill should have come with the kit instead of the regular split grill (guess it has to do with molding costs or something else ) - Good luck with this kit

    • @carouselofcrazychrisb
      @carouselofcrazychrisb  Před měsícem +1

      Thanks, David. But I gotta say, I've built the general lee twice and each time it came out one of my favorites. Luckily this kit has the regular charger front end to make it, so that's what I'm doing here. I can't believe how bad, poorly, the Daytona nose is on this kit, total bummwr

    Ha ha ha Chris I still have the nose clip in my parts box got to be over 20yrs!.. It's AMT world of crap fit... The revell monogram was light years ahead of it 😂.... And I have opened the headlight doors on the Revell....on the AMT now that would really be a magic trick.....but I'm up for it 😂😂😂

    Well at least you got a cool box. You could make it into like the Joe Dirt version? Or maybe just add the wing to it?
