It's been a while but here is an update. I started painting the wheels. I made pedals and an automatic shifter for the interior. I'll be using a heater under the dash board from a Revell 69 Charger. The engine is a 440 with an automatic like used on the show cars. This model comes with a Hemi engine that was never used on the show. The head rest on the front seat is a set from a Revell 69 Charger.
I started painting the chassis. I painted it mostly like it would be painted at the factory with gray primer in the middle and the body color overspray. I painted the engine compartment and inner front wheel wells as if the car was painted with the front end off.
I painted the body with Testors Custom Lacquer System Hugger Orange and applied the decals. The decals represent how the car looked in the early Georgia episodes. I also painted the headliner inside the body.
