  3. Might wanna check it on an online video first to make sure it's the one you're thinking.
  4. I do believe that's "The Fugitive," S4 E5, with the Motocross. I think.
  5. ...was it the one in which she had a ton of T-shirts printed for an event? Maybe not?

  19. Only other points is to remind that the combination of the AMT '71 Charger chassis/engine/exhaust/suspension/tires with aftermarket wheel hubs under the MPC Monaco body and most of the interior is a fantastic combination. For those who have tried to tackle the MPC kit as it was, you will recognize in this photo the vast improvement in appearance and "stance".
  20. How to improve the grill: Model car grills are notoriously unrealistic. First remove the chrome with a soak in bleach. Then thin from behind until it can be opened, everything removed that shouldn't be up to the bars. Then cut appropriately sized pieces of fine metal mesh to attach behind. Prime, paint, highlight and install. Major improvement.
  21. HOW TO IMPROVE THE LIGHTS: The molded-on side marker lights were sanded off before the body was painted. Then simply taking the clear sprue for the clear windows and red lights, file/sand it very thin (less than 1mm), cut to the correct length, then cut the other way to the correct width. Then paint using transparent acrylics, attach with superglue and the result is 1) realistic, 2) stunningly improving and 3) FREE.
  22. The story behind: The MPC kit itself is very crude other than the generally good outline of the body itself. The AMT '71 Charger kit provides a FANTASTIC chassis/engine/suspension which can easily be adapted for many Chrysler products from this time period. In modelmaking lingo, this is called "KITBASHING." Only challenge was having to remove the floor of the MPC interior to fit onto the Charger chassis, but it works well. Then some scratchbuilding of the radio/electronic equipment. A modified 1/25 resin basset hound makes it complete.
