Sujet: -62 Chrysler 300 "the Electroflare" Mar 14 Jan 2014 - 23:05
Now that my European car-kit is almost finished, I had to start a new one. this time i dug out a started custom-build from my stash. An AMERICAN/US 1962 Chrysler 300 HT, that's got the top removed and replaced by a glass bubble-top!
I'll make a completly new interior for it and, since the original hood has disappeared since I last had this model on the bench I had to make a new hood. The Hood was made today and I just took Another , stock, Chrysler 300-hood and used as a template then cut down some spare hood from the parts box. Looks pretty good IMHO.

The grille has been a really tough one to crack....I have many hundreds of different grilles in my stash, but when I talked to a good friend and VERY talented modelbuilder today he finally put me in the right direction. I Went the really old school/TRaK way and used an old Aurora parts pack:

I just decided on building this as a curbside. So the hood will be glued shut and there will just be some kind of Engine dummy in the enginebay to make look OK from below.

I decided to go with the kit supplied Engine for the "dummy". The hood will be glued shut. I had to do some filling to the bottom of the Engine/oil pan and then glued two short pieces of Evergreen tube for "headers". Everything under the car will be semiflat black.

Made a Little more progress yesterday. Still not quite finished with the bodymoulding around the rear part of the bubbletop. The Revell Parts Pack dashboard has been slightly changed. The steeringwheel came with the same Parts Pack.

Right now I'm doing 4 headrests using halfround evergreen-rod and chromed bullets from AMT's -57 Chevy.
