Nice job dge467.
Seeing what you have accomplished has caused me to dig my cuda out of the bodies bin.
I see a new transam in my future.
Lovely piece of work.

That is sweet!

Really nice work :)

Just fantastic. You really nailed this one sir. One of your best.

Dang it, now I want to finish the RMS one I have. :)

And have to echo Dave on the foil work, I dream about results like that.

Thanks for the compliments! Foiling the Plymouth lettering on the rear just about drove me nuts!

[Reslotted]

Wow, You guys just keep raising the bar.
That's Awesome.
Ditto on the foiling. I just keep coming back to look at this.

Beautiful work and I have to echo the foil comments......I wish I had the steady hands for that!

Lovely job. I have a resin copy of that 'Cuda. It's one of those sort of slightly started projects that I have. I didn't like it when I first saw the shell, but when I started doing some pictorial research it really started to grow on me.

That is a beautiful car and spot on as for the looks and stance of that period racer. I would also like to thank you for another part of your picture, your work area reminds me a lot of mine. I always seem to be a bit too busy to have all my parts and pieces placed in their assigned area. Now, if I could just locate my hobby knife I could complete that cut on my thumb.

Wow that came out greet. I've always liked that body style and the racer look you gave it is perfect.

dge467,

To begin with I love the car you have chosen to model. My Dad owned a 64 Plymouth Barracuda and I had a 1966 Formula "S" car. As a matter of fact, of all the cars I have owned, I think that 66 Formula "S" car is one that I'd like to have today. It drove very well, handled exquisitely and had adequate power. The gas mileage, when you did not have the 4 bbl open was respectable at 22 mpg. Overall, a good car.

I see your car to be a 64/65 model year. About the only way to tell the years apart is either with the VIN code or if it was equipped with an automatic transmission, 64 had the pushbutton shifter on the dash and 65 had the column shifter.

BTW - I owned one of each of the 'Cuda body styles. Awesome cars.

Man that is a nice looking car. I was going to post my RMS build but not now. LOL This is beautiful. If you haven't tried the RMS resin it is nice. I am waiting on wheel and a few more decals, to be honest but I 'll let the dust settle before I post LOL. Very impressive build. LOVE IT. Jim
