I think it's fitting that this 1970 MPC Dodge Coronet Super Bee is first to cross the finishing line in 2024. Actually finishing this 2 years to the day after I started it, which is not bad considering my 1st car project took me over 4 years! The kit has it's issues, mainly cleaning up the body and chrome pieces, but the details is good. I added plug wires and a few other details such as resin door handles and replacing the side markers with aluminum tape. Painted MCW Limelight Green Metallic lacquer.

Congrats! That looks great!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

A wonderful build! Two years is a long time to put in but the result is clearly worth it.
