Here is a Life Like Dodge Intrepid Nascar that I've converted into a P/S. After the add ons of the rear air foil and hood scoop I primered the body and then sprayed a silver base coat over it. After sitting on the bench for a few weeks I was able to return to this project. After laying down some masking tape along the side I then drew out a flame pattern. Next I used my X-ACTO knife to cut along the lines I then masked off the rest of the body and sprayed candy blue over the unmasked area. I also added some black along the area where the flames are. The black is hard to see now but will show up better after a clear coat is added.

Here is another MM/PS body option for the Dodge fans. This one is made out of the Dodge Charger body that Auto World sells. After filling in the door lines, cutting off the mirrors and door pillars. It kind of looks like the Dodge Avenger P/S. Still lots to do to make it smoother. Almost looks like a modern 68-69 Barracuda. One of my favorite web sites www.Gregrusselldesign.com

SAM Well you done it now. I saw the charger and said thats the car for me. I always thought the avenger was the best looking MOPAR PRO STOCK ever. Your charger is close to it cant wait to see it done. TOM

Thanks! I like the looks of the Charger also. I might have to switch over to Mopar. This one comes with a NOS bottle in the fuel tank

LOL, No problems with the F/C cars. It's just the P/S guys you have to watch.
Jeff, I used a small round grinding stone on my Dremel. I trimmed out as close as I could then used a X-Acto knife for the rest of it. Be careful if you use a dremel. The plastic builds up on the stone and makes a bigger grinding surface as you trim.
