Monograms 1970 Plymouth GTX built as the Street Fighter X. Engine is the 429 from Revells Hemi Cuda, wheels and brakes are Pegasus. Front splitter and rear spoiler are scratchbuilt. Interior has a roll cage, sport steering wheel and sport seats. Sprayed bright red with black stripes. Body is warped, it looked not so bad when I started it but it is unfortunately quite visible.

Even with the warped body it looks pretty good. Just put it on the shelf and no one will notice. Sure looks good though.

Great finish on this on, Tim. The mean forward stance is a great look for this one.I was not familiar with this Street Fighter X kit before, but I may have to check it out after seeing your build.
If you ever need a hand, or a foot, or a leg, look me up, my number is 9-1-1!

I gotta say I can't find the warp. My shelves are full of cars that each have something wrong but you just move on. It's a mean looking car (in a good way). I like the engine bay.
I'm not just trying to start trouble...

Great job Tim, you really captured the classic American muscle car look.

Even with a warped body it still looks great. Nice job on the stance it looks pretty aggressive.

I really like this build.  Clean, original, and mean. What more could you ask for? Don  Stand on it...brakes only slow you down.
Has a checkered past.
