Continuing with the detailing on the Hemi.
Things are beginning to come together.

Wow, that's a helluva job. I'm still getting over the kickdown linkage !
On the fan, both my '68 Hemi cars used the clutch fan, not the 4-blade.
The PS pulley looks like the '69 Saginaw pump unit, IIRC, but neither of my '68s had PS.
Since I'm sure you'll add the vacuum advance hose, it goes to the rear (primary) carb.

Yes, I've become aware of the fan discrepancy and have already taken steps to correct it. Don't know that much about the PS pulley. Just using what was in the Revell '68 Charger kit, so I assume it is correct, but who knows. Anyway, it will stay.
Already got the hole drilled for the vacuum advance hose.

Thanks jcon.
Got the coil, distributor base and fuel splitter installed, and then added the vacuum advance hose, fuel lines and throttle cable.

beautiful!! besides your freakish talent on building plastic models, i think the main part that makes these so beautiful is your detail to scale. nothing seems over or under sized. you don't just grab the closest thing and use it. there is no "this will do" thoughts.

^^^ ain't that the truth ! I half expect to see rubber boots on the valve covers for the plug wires...

Thanks guys!
No, not exactly any rubber boots for the plugs, but here's what I'm trying out.
The rear boot is finished.
