That was one HECK of a '70 Dodge Charger Doug! That detail is just incredible all around! I believe as a kid I had a diecast replica of one as a toy. Those wheels look familiar! I need to grab one of these for the stash!
I enjoyed this video for a number of reasons: A discussion of the parts in this kit both their contents and fit, the length of the video (longer than a simple unboxing, but not a full hour time lapse assembly which are nice sometimes, but sometimes I want something a little shorter), and the subject matter (a recent release of a long awaited and popular muscle car subject).
Thanks Jason we're here to inform and inspire and you can't do that with an open box review. Those OOB reviews are really only sales tools. There's almost always a link for purchasing the kit. If a review doesn't delve into kit issues - it's kit for collectors - not kit builders! Thanks for sharing and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
DMG, Modeling methods generally carryover when applied to similar subjects. Do you have a specific area in mind? Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already to help us reach more modelers! -Doug
@RightOnReplicas Thank you. I just got back into modeling. I did this as a kid didn't know what I was doing. Now I can get tips from folks like you. It may be a short lived hobby. I won't be able to afford the kits, paints, or tools. I had no idea this stuff was so expensive. Lol! But I'll enjoy it for a while. Great fun
Tom, The seams are molded into the headliner. It's just painted as it has a textured surface also! Thanks for watching and please subscribe if you haven't already, to help us continue our mission to inspire more modelers! -Doug
It's hard to find a good 70 charger model. I have an original MPC model a promo model and a real full size car. The hardest part for them to replicate is the front grill and the rear grill and tail lights. Most likely I will buy one of these and give it a shot. My original one was built way back when but still looks great, lots of detail on the original MPC models. Wish MPC / someone would re-pop those old original model kits.
JS, I think this is one of the best versions. Thanks for sharing and please subscribe if you haven't already, to help us continue our mission to inspire more modelers! -Doug!

Awesome build! I wonder if the same techniques apply to the 68 Charger kit Revell puts out?

Very cool! I got a question. If a kit comes molded in color, can it be painted over?
BBCB, Yes, but a good coat of primer will ensure consistency! -Doug

BBCB, There are some low cost options available for that too! -Doug
@RightOnReplicas I'll definable be looking. I took your advice on using rustoleum paints for that reason. Low cost. Thanks for that tip
How did you do the headliner with the seams?

I hope Revell re-pops this kit.
RB, That would be nice! -Doug
