Hello Josh and welcome :wave: i would take a guess its a Charger? what year though? will it be standard or a General? silver would be a good colour ;) reminds me of Simons Charger.

Some men hear are very grumpy and dont like the Jet Car because it slows Down there racing :x well lets tell these grumpy guys the Jet Car Rocks 8-) 8-) 8-)

Landy replica? Do you need a Hemi for that! :D Nice to see a youngster into modelling. It seems it's a dying art with youngsters nowadays. When I was a kid I was up the model shop or newsagents to get an Airfix "baggie" 1:72 every Saturday morning! Built on Saturday, shot with the airgun or falling aflame out of the bedroom window Sunday!

Funny car. Hence the stretched forward wheel arches, flush rear window and the grille will be a decal.

Excellent photos. I hope it comes out well.

Bring it to the Nats so we can see it.

Maybe we should have a MoPar model table near the MMA stand this year.
