We had some nice sunny weather today so I figured I would get some pictures.Two attempts at adding some decals went bad. The first attempt the decals broke apart and the second set of decals ended up not sticking well, probably too old.I notice the headlight buckets have no depth to them unlike the convertible I just built . I am assuming this must be the Pro stock front end? Anyway I am happy with how it came out.

Great color. The big meats in the back are killer. Definitely got my vote.

Love it . Nothing meaner than an E body with fat centrelines poking out the back . (Slightly Biased me !)
Nice to see that you left those bumper over riders on there too . Sign o' the times !

Thanks! If I had a set of bumpers without the over riders I would have used them. But I am ok with these.

I don't know. I kind of like the look. Sometimes a guy can smooth a car out a little too much. Either way, it's a sharp looking build.

I used the extra bumpers in the Revell '70 Hemi 'Cuda kit on my '72 Plymouth 'Cuda convertible from the TV series Mannix made from the AMT '74 Barracuda. I painted them with Alclad II Chrome paint. No more bulky bumper guards!
