2021 Dodge Charger R/T The BuildGuilherme Rosa (my friend) gave me this kit last Sunday at the CPMC Expo and he suggested maybe to add my McNally character to it. What a great idea! I have changed my mind about the color though. I am using Tamiya TS-54 Light Metallic Blue instead of the Tamiya TS-89 Pearl Blue. No one is related to anybody living or deceased. The StoryWith the road chase ended, McNally has the time to sit and reflect upon his actions. A cop had wounded the last person who had tried to kill the Boston, PI and she was waiting to tell her story to Lt. Det. Adam Troy. What is true is that a contract has been issued on McNally and it has cost him his relationship with Attorney Charlotte Rothmann and now McNally is a man all alone in Boston. |

Yes, it is! 2021 Dodge Charger R/T
The Story
The female cop was Casey Westerfield who has sold him her old 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee LTD V8 and had shot the man attempting to shoot him in the back. She had identified herself to McNally and they had chatted together for a few minutes. He even thanked her for saving his life to which she was extremely grateful. The BuildThe engine was assembled and already I am deviating from the instructions. The instructions calls for paint the engine an assortment of blacks and silvers, but I'm going to paint the engine block Street Hemi Orange.
McNally will return...

Thanks Ed! I am trying to get a B5 Blue Metallic color and the Tamiya TS-54 Light Metallic Blue is very close to that color!

2021 Dodge Charger R/T
The Story McNally gets a ride to the Hospital to talk with the remaining suspect who is still alive. He enters the room and the cop guarding him steps out. He pulls his Smith & Wesson Model 4506 from his should holster and sticks the nose of the gun in the suspects should and causes him much pain. "Who sent you after me?" McNally again sticks the gun into the suspects should and the pain is unbearable and he repeats the question, "Who sent you after me?" "Dean MaComber and he works for Dean Anderson." McNally sticks his gun back in his shoulder holster and leaves the room and the cop walks back in to guard his prisoner.
The Build Typical AMT! Fitment issues! The first picture is the strut cover on the left side with the body attached. Note the gap which I will have to fill. The second and third picture shows the firewall in place after I modified the firewall mounting points and lowered the firewall some. The unmodified firewall would stand as least the width of the plastic above the chassis. I wonder what else I will find? I thought AMT would have done away with these issues!

The StoryAs McNally leaves the Hospital, he knows that the hour is late and he should go home and have sometimes to eat. When he gets home, he finds Charlotte Rothmann upstairs in his bedroom packing the rest of her clothes and is startled by him. She wanted to leave him, but before she left him, she wanted to pack up the rest of her things and leave him a note on the kitchen counter and leave. Not this time. She was leaving him since she can't put up with his dangerous job.
The BuildI felt like I should patch the hole up and I did. Since I now know the the hole is covered, I just felt that I should do it anyway. No one has said anything about the firewall. McNally will return...

Thanks Joe! It was something I had to do just to satisfy me. Anybody else would just bypass it.
