Yeah right man.:lol:
If you go with the Cuda, don't go with that color, looks like junk on that car(IMO).

Your crazy. the only color this car works with, and the only car that this color works with, is "Lime Light" green.

[stangdude94]

Did none of u read i am going to ask bondo to do so flames on it

so it will either black or grey or silver for the base color but the flames will look like real flames


tex that not the same car as mine

[texan_idiot25]

Yes it is Stangdude. Do you have any idea what a 'Cuda is? Google "green cuda"

And yes we read. But you didn't type it smartass.


also i am lokking to do a custom flame job on it any way here it is

No where do I see bondo's name.

[stangdude94]

k i didnt say his name and btw i know what a cuda is tex

any way other than flames what color paint shuld i do i cant find the green to match tex's pic

[texan_idiot25]

Obviously, you don't. The car I posted is a '72 Plymouth Cuda. Only difference is in the years. Take a gander: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plymouth_Barracuda

If your going to try and tell someone their wrong, make sure your right 1st.

[GearHeadV8]

sooo back on topic we go. are you looking to make it a racer or drag racer or anything:p

[imnotmikal]

Stop fighting...

Any body have any model mounting tricks or tips

Why not try yourself(directed to stang person)...I liked that green on Lancer's Mustang...that would look alright on the Hemi Cuda....and with a s2 and LiPo w/o AWD you don't go anywhere.

what u mean that thing rips yeah i am going to paint it my self

any way i am going to order the stuff tonight

[2wdpancar]

I mean w/o AWD, you just get spinouts.
LiPo is too powerful on s2, maybe 8-25 s1 on full throttle might work, but on low setting, my camaro xmod(r.i.p.) did spinouts in 2wd.

Nice avatar, I thought I had one just like it?:roll:

[stangdude94]

yeah blt i have 2 use s2 cuz of chasic length but i got a track to run it so it runs fine.

thanks but i foung this on iconator.com

[bondo]

i'll get to your PM shortly.
sorry for the wait but other things come first.
as for mounting, that is the same exact model i used for my tutorial.
mounting model bodies (http://www.xmodsforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=34)
so it should be pretty straight forward,

[stangdude94]

thanks bondo i replyed to ur pm

yeah greekone i went with the prostreet rims ^ they look so much better

pleze ad some input. let me know what u think.

[TheXmodifyer]

It looks good! It's way too dark to be authentic 'Cuda green but it still looks good! Im eager to see this ***** done!

[bondo]

lookin pretty **** good but you should have fixed those additional body pieces before paint.
models like that are tricky because of the way the body is paid out.
it's great for a model but if you want to run it then you need to reinforce those pieces otherwise they'll ssnap off with the quickness.

[stangdude94]

thanks guys!!

Xmodifyer - the paint only looks dark in the pics in person it looks awesome

b-man - im not sure what u mean

[TheXmodifyer]

He means that model pieces are extremely delecate. Think, Models are supposed to be set on shelves and not bumped around, so thats why they made the delecate pieces. If they were meant to be slammed around, they'da made the pieces like..titanium. He's just saying you really need to reinforce those pieces.

[stangdude94]

ok kool i get it now

[SYNDYCATE]

Wow Times 2!!

[xtremeoffrdin]

It's lookin pretty sweet,and that paint looks pretty close to the paint on the eclipse in "The Fast and the Furious".

[stangdude94]

alright the plates say DR. HEMI and the bilbord decals say HEMI

let me know what u what u think later on i may upgrade some performance but this is mostly done all but the tail light need instaled

sorry 2 double post but i forgot to say it going to be in the comp

[2wdpancar]

The edit button, there..

And it looks good to me except that stuff by the wheel well...the word Hemi is cool and all but I seriously don't like that big square-looking-thing.

Good luck:)

[dontspamme]

I'm impressed! The "Hemi" decals are put on VERY well. Any plans for performance? Any windows or rim change? It doesnt look complete without windows...

[stangdude94]

thanks blt i forgot to edit it al right that u dont care for it . its not a car that every one would love but i love it

[Lancer_Man]

Windows. Other than that, nice looking. Green and black look great on that car. :D

(Maybe I do like green. :lol:)

[2wdpancar]

Just noticed, is this on a stock chassis or the LiPo'd chassis?
The body is mounted on one with a stock battery tray, will it just be switched back and forth between chassis?

[stangdude94]

BLT- its stock something went weird with my lipos and they got realy hot realy quick so i ran out side with it. and i havent messed with it sence.

window arent going to happen the model only came with front and rear windows. so yeah that sucks ik .but as for rims change im leaving the pro street rims on it . as for performance i want to get my lipos working and maby some day do a 180 motor on itthat way it will have a "big block" 426 HEMI. lol

it has an s2 motor in now il add the other rs upgrades in it for the comp

btw not sure if anybody noticed but it has custom drag tires on it off of a die cat model firebird

[greekone]

Body came out really good and you should try to find some fatter tires for the back.

[stangdude94]

they are fatter than stock

[xmodkidd33]

Looks awesome! I'm not a fan of the bumper lights, but you can do whatever you want, it's your car. I would suggest taking better pictures, they would make the car look better.

[xmodkidd33]

btw u already know that ur from pa 2

Was that directed at me? What?

[stangdude94]

any who any one elese have any input

[greekone]

Body came out really good and you should try to find some fatter tires for the back.

I meant something like the tires that come with 65 Mustang or 67 Camaro BK.

[xmodkidd33]

Did it come with windows? If it did, paint them black or smoke grey and put them in. The red wiring and chassis throws the whole look off a bit.

[stangdude94]

it has the windows in already but the model didnt come with side windows
