MPC 1974 Plymouth Duster Dealer Promotional Promo Model BEAUTIFUL | eBay Riddler

I've been trying to find a 75/76 Duster Grill to finish a model of my car I've been working on. I have a beautiful resin 73 grill. Once I find one I might see about getting a resin cast of it made. Been 2 years of searching! Riddler

Started mocking up the body, to make sure it all fits together and what needs putty and sanding. So far it's fit pretty well. I found the hood scoop by chance and purchased it from a Resin mold maker using old MPC parts. Engine now fits but I need more resin parts to complete the RMS front...

Lastly the resin kit calls for the 75 Duster (Dart) kit but it lacks detail. So I decided to use the 71 AMT kit which means the body is missing some things. First up, inner fender wells. After that was glued and drying I used some leaf springs and putty to make subframe connectors. Sadly I...

Here’s an update... I don’t get a lot of time but was fortunate enough today. Started on the chassis and of course like the real thing the Hemi needs room. Cut notch out of the frame rail, just like the real thing. Then started kit bashing a K frame to work. While glue dried I cut and...

I guess I'm a rare duck... I use a bunch of things. All depends on what I'm gluing, painting etc. For basic assembly I use super glue, for putting bodies onto chassis I use model glue (melts the plastic together) and for windows, clear parts I use PVA elmers glue. Leaves the windows clear...

Yeah a 71 AMT kit should work. But whoever sold you the resin kit has a suggestion for assembly or at least can tell what kit it’s based off of. Riddler

Got the base coats down, now to go back and clean up my lines, do some detail work and add wiring. Riddler

Well it's getting cold outside again...so I guess I'm back at the model game. My son (9) has decided he wants to build a car so I gifted him a Viper model. Nothing like teaching the young-ins. I found a snorkel hood at harts parts resin. Now I need to still find a grill. I know MPC made a...

Lastly I'm in need of a 75-76 grill for my build. I've got a resin 73-74 grill if anyone wants it. Does anyone have a 75-76 grill they'll trade, sell or cast for me? Thanks, Riddler

I’ve also started to paint the resin 6.1 Hemi. My gold paint has dried up so I need to get more. Riddler

Back at it again. Couldn’t find my wheels in 1:24 scale so I had some made. 3D printed. I'm also having a dual snorkel hood scoop 3d printed. If your interested in one for your model I can prolly have more printed. These will come raw and need to be sanded and primed before paint. Riddler

Now that the summer show season is coming to a rest I've been back searching for parts for my 1/25 car. Still cannot find a snorkel hood scoop. But I did read that a lot of serious modellers are using a 70TA Challenger scoop and filing/cutting it into the correct shape. If anyone has either...

It'll continue during the cold months. I don't do inside work during the summer. Riddler

No thanks I really like my wheels and for what I paid for them to be made, I'll keep them. I might have my neighbor make some on his cnc machines for my 1:25. @RustyRatRod thank you. I can't wait to make it to more shows. I've been out driving it to work out the bugs. Riddler

WOW!!!! I'm currently working on recreating my car. I've yet to find the wheels I need. How hard is it to create parts from scratch? I'd love to see how you do it from beginning to end. Thanks Riddler

73-76 Duster Resin Kit. Riddler

Tiday I took the very limited time I had and filled the resin holes with green stuff two part modeling clay. Should be able to mount and prime soon! Riddler

Competition Resin's for the 73-76 Body. It needs a lot of work but it's really the only place to find an actual 73-76 Duster. The grill is wrong for mine but I'm hoping to find one or make one. The engine was found on ebay. Riddler

You don't even know. The resin version was a whopping $10 shipped. I'll get more done when I decide what primer and paints I'm going to use. I hate Testor's as they are so thick. Riddler

I'm on the hunt for wheels to match mine (as close as possible) and a snorkel hood or scoop. Then I'll be needing help deciding on other things. Any suggestions to keep me going? Riddler

Next I needed to remove the NAG1 trans molded into the 6.1 Hemi. I also needed to clean up the resin as it’s got a bunch of molding flash. The last photo is a model I worked in years ago but never finished. It’s a 440 dressed in detail. Riddler

Here’s where I’ve started. I purchased a 73 Resin cast model and also a 1971 AMT Duster kit. I’ve also purchased a 6.1 Hemi in resin and purchased a viper engine/trans combo. Riddler

This is something I’ve always wanted to do. I’m goung to recreate my car in 1:25 scale. It involves a bunch of work and I’m sure I’ll be asking for suggestions. Here’s my car I’m going to recreate in 1:25. As you can see this is no small task. Riddler

Your all lucky, I haven't found any Duster or A bodies for my collection. Riddler

Man I'd love to get my hands on one of those MPC Dusters. I'd make a mold of the grill, bumpers and other 74 parts and start making resin parts. I have a 71 kit I was going to use Resin parts with but the seller stopped making them. Riddler

What is the track made of? This looks so fun I might have to see about making a track and getting my kids and friends involved in a valve cover racing league... Thanks, Riddler

This is so cool! I wish there were a racing thing in Windsor/Detroit. Riddler

Anyone ever see a 73-76 Duster? I'm really wanting to make a kit of one of these. Riddler

I need a 73-76 Duster. Prefer the 75-76 grill but I'll take what I can get. I saw some resin parts online but can't seem to find them anymore. Riddler
