With no oil pressure, I guess it burns pistons and gas!

Man that's gorgeous! The cream is pretty crazy with the dark green, but very "period" and unique.

For some reason I expected to see the entire rear end gone, not just the guts...

I mean, I even hate "tributes" when they take base Chevelles and make SS396s, 318 (or Slant-6) Challengers and make them into Hemi R/Ts, etc. Even if the correct car is worth far more than the "tribute", the latter is still just incorrectly restored in my eyes, and worth less than the...

My thoughts exactly: "tribute" just means "restored incorrectly" to me.

I smell a derby in this poor thing's future :(

That is actually a big improvement over the normal look of those Imperials! That's actually a really nice-looking car. The continental "bump" isn't value-added, but is interesting and definitely speaks to the time.

That's an awesome car, but seems like a pretty penny for a 318.

What's with the front bumper guards?

Brown with a vinyl top but CHP? Was it done more "civilian" after retirement?

So we know he's lied about at least one thing... Seeing that car from 2018 turned into this abomination is why I keep buying cars and not selling any; I can't bear to think of someone doing something like this to one of my (not popular, not worth anything) cars.

:( Oh well, as long as you've kept the original wheels, covers and tires, it's always easy to swap!

Looks totally sharp like that. Please, no more mags on nice cars like this!

The grill was black-washed, "bare metal foil" was used on all of the rocker and window trim... And note the custom lisence plates... ...and the back-up light! The underside wasn't ignored, either! So, all in all, it's not my best work (I'm used to modeling at 1:24-1:25 scale), but...

Then some gloss: And then a polish! I used Tamiya tape to create some vinyl roof strips, and for masking to spray the vinyl top: It's looking like my car more and more! Add in the vent windows with some plastic stock, using what I left of the original window frame as the front of the...

Ever since I was a kid, I've wanted a replica of a car that we, as a family, own/owned. I've gotten close - the Matchbox Cougar station wagon, when we had a Cougar XR7; my Corgi S&H Torino when my dad had a '76 base Torino, etc. - but never something in the right colour, or with the right number...

They're no dingier than any other brand I've had. Using a proper cleaner, and keeping them clean, will help more than anything.

That's gorgeous; very reminiscent of the '71 Charger but not quite so... phallic. The vinyl top style is silly but everyone was trying all kinds of weirdness with vinyl roofs throughout the '70s!

Could be; that'd be a fun option, and easier for people to talk to one another than in a station wagon.

LOL fair, I didn't think that one would need to adjust the passenger side vent window. The air flow through the kick-panel vents is tremendous and what I use for cooling... I just wish Chrysler had not put the controls for seemingly everything behind the steering wheel!
