1967 Dodge Charger 426 Hemi

This is one of those models that once its done theirs no way you cant be proud of it. It was really fun to build but at the same time presenting challenges and the overall amount of optional customization is great.(Note their are some extra pieces that are not listed you can customize with ex. racing gauge) the only issue I had to make this a four star is that not all of the directions were as clear as they could be on where to put things.

Not happy with the model. The body was warped so I had to place it in hot water to straighten it out. The car will not turn out like the picture and I don't know how Fooze is allowing his name to be used on this rendering of his car. There is no option to lower the body over the Fooze wheels so instead if you use the Fooze wheels you'll just have a stock Charger with over sized wheels that don't squeeze into the wheel wells. To do this correctly you would have to open the wheel wells and channel the interior for the drive shaft. The hood scoop will not work correctly it's better to just glue it into the hood rather than have it sit on the engine. Final assembly required me to shave off parts because the body would not fit to the assembled chassis. In addition the hood did not fit to the body and had to be cut to fit. Overall I had to do too much sanding and cutting to get a car that actually looked like a Charger. I didn't bother trying to build a Fooze Charger that would have been more work than I wanted. It's models like this that discourage people from pursuing the hobby. If this was some kid's first model he would have given up and gone back to his video games.

Really good kit as usual from Revell lately. Build it stock or Foose or pretty much however you want as there are lots of part options. Plenty of detail also, especially the interior, engine, and engine bay. If you need a couple of parts for their '67 GTX (hood scoops, interior stuff) for some reason you'll find them here, this kit must share alot of the same tooling. Only problem is some flash (my guess is again - old tooling.) Nice kit overall and goes together well.
