OK, I'm bringing it on!!! I am using 2 kits, the old shoe box pro street chevy as a chassis donor, which will prop up the Revell 70' Plymouth CUDA, and i have a " Big Ears Resin" 610 HEMI to try and shoe horn in the front of this thing.

Thought you'd likethat choice mate, well, a bit of shortening of the chassis behind the wheels to get it under the short rear of the Cuda. And a tiny bit off the top of the fire wall and this is how it should sit.

( cut the quarters ) Thanks guys, i think i will have some fun with this build, been wanting to do something like this for a while now. Sirbeast, i did not want to use the pro slicks, as i think i prefer streetable tyres to keep with a street effect, but the same size tyres would not fit, and i din't want to cut the rear quarters, so i am using the tyres from a Max Rat or similar kit, they fit under just nicely, a lot less work too, i think i have enough on my plate, with out cutting into the quarters.

Thanks for the interest guys, well, i got a bit of actual work done on this . I had to modify a few things on the engine, and fabricate a tunnel ram, as nothing else was big enough for this engine. Also made my Split Dominator Carbs for it too, just for something different. Also painted the tube chassis, i was going to do everything black, but that was too boring, so i added some candy green into the mix, and there will be a back story to go with it too..

Next step is the interior, but the Cuda door trims are too fancy and too large for what i am looking for. BUT, the sportsman kit has NO door trims, so i made some from some thicker styrene. Then the roll cage from the chevy was nothing like i wanted, as it fully caged out the driver, and was for track only style. As this guy will need to "pick up the chicks" he will need another seat. So i manipulated a couple of cage's from the junk box, just got to manipulate the Cuda dash to fit now.
