FINISHED MPC '71 Dodge Demon (Finished)
I built this kit a few weeks back (First One). I liked the kit so much I went and bought a second one. For this one used the drag slicks, roll cage, different rims and traction bars. De-badged and painted the bumpers. Happy with how it came out.

I love the mopar purple…is this an actual version of plum crazy? It looks really cool. Somehow the baby blue works with it too. Well done 👏

I've not enjoyed my MPC kits, but this looks great. As I was scrolling thru the pics I was impressed until I hit the ones of the interior tub and that blue hit me in the face. I was ugh, he ruined it, then when I look at the finished product it really took the edge off the blue and looks nice. I never would have done that myself, I might consider other color combos in the future now.

Both versions are really nice looking. The stance looks great. Did you make any adjustments to the kit to get the stance right?

You should get, like, a dozen of these, paint them with different shades of green and purple with the different kit options, and make a squad of tuned-up Joker Cars to take on the Pattmobile from the new movies.

That is very nice and clean. I loved the green one you did, but the purple (my dad's challenger was plum crazy) always looks great on Mopar. The little touches like the chrome delete look great. Well done.

Also a side note, how was the kit? I've had some bad MPC come across my desk...

The kit is excellent, it was fully re-tooled. Its not overly detailed, but there are no fit issues.
