Pros 

Like the 4-door version, it comes with all the 70’s era MPC police equipment and weaponry. The wide steel rims and dog dish hub caps are a nice change of pace.

Cons 

The biggest draw back to the kit was the chassis. There is a large gap between the top of the inner fenders and the body Nebulous body to chassis fit. There is no front suspension detail and the shocks molded into rear suspension. Additionally, it only comes with a single exhaust for the kit's 440 engine.

Comments 

This is a unique Dodge two-door body style that builds into a handsome model. Even with the draw backs of the chassis, it was an enjoyable build.
