July 13, 20197 yr My latest project completed; MPC Dodge Monaco body and interior, 71 Charger chassis, engine and suspension, plus lots more : Some of what went into it:
July 14, 20197 yr I agree Hobie. It's hard to believe it's a model since it looks so real....incredible attention to detail, especially the interior.
July 14, 20197 yr Very cool! I have the MPC model as well but man is it bad compared to this one! In my opinion the best surrounding county color scheme.
July 15, 20197 yr Excellent work, Andrew. Did you ever consider adding the fangs seen in earlier episodes?
July 27, 20197 yr Author Hey there Hobie; I did at first, but I did my research. The fangs were only on a black-interior car used in three episodes in Season 4. Can't see the front bumper for the single episode in Season 3 when he was introduced. I still had to modify the bumper anyway, to fill in the Monaco's signal lights, plus add the "tabs" that were sometimes there on either side of the license plate, and sometimes not. All episodes after the first 3 episodes in S4 were tan-interior vehicles without the fangs. Since I like the tan interior so much more (it's what I vividly remember as a child), I went with that. Here's the breakdown: –S3 E14 My Son, Bo Hogg – black interior (no clear view of front bumper) –S4 E2 Double Dukes – black interior, bumper fangs present –S4 E4 Coltrane vs. Duke – black interior, bumper fangs present –S4 E8 10 Million Dollar Sheriff Part 1 – black interior, bumper fangs present –S4 E12 Cletus Falls in Love – mixed black and tan interiors, NO bumper fangs –S4 E16 Shine On Hazzard Moon – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S4 E24 Miss Tri-Counties – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S4 E25 Share and Share Alike – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S5 E12 The Treasure of Soggy Marsh – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S6 E5 The Boar’s Nest Bears – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S6 E14 Dead and Alive – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S7 E11 Sittin’ Dukes -- (didn't get around to checking this one)
