Tom McEwen 1971 Plymouth Duster Funny Car
Revell kit sent to me a few years back by JohnJ. Thanks John.
Had a few issues.
Had to modify the rear suspension and roll cage to get the the chassis further into the body, in order to correct the WAY too high stance. This led to the engine being too tall to fit and I had to leave out the intake manifold in order to get the engine in. Hence the fuel lines location is 'fudged'
Had a couple of decal issues too.

Great build sir .............. I remember that car well and you have nailed it beautifully ............ sometimes you have to "fudge" a little to make everything come together ........ really impressive

Fudging? You call that minor 'adjustment' fudging?
Looks great, Al.
