Thanks Guys.....the first dio is one half of the very first General Lee jumped for the tv programme in the 70s and the other half is how they found it after being in a junkyard for 20 odd years. It was painted blue and looked like a race car for the 4th episode "repo men" then it was never seen again until 2000
this is the website for it... http://www.generalleefanclub.com/71/71.html

This is the first dio of it i made...

Wow! I really like that half and half General Lee. I remember reading that story about finding the #1 Charger from the show like that. Very cool.

Well dont tell the missus :D but all i did was i put a piece of kitchen foil into a frying pan then when it heated up i pressed the wheel onto the foil until the tyre melted to the shape i wanted then cut away the excess rubber.

Welcome to the home of rust, junk and wackos. The builds look great. I like the half and half approach you've taken on some of the builds. It's nice to see shiny builds. No one here appreciates an SA type cover car build. Stick around and you will learn some very interesting secrets by some of the greatest car modelers out there.

One quick note. If you set the car at a slight angle to the base it will give it a bit more life. Try it and let us know what you think.
