Hi,
I am a rookie when it comes to car modeling,I am mainly an armor and figure guy.I was watching the tv show AGENTS of S.H.I.E.L.D and saw an awsome 69 dodge charger fully blown driven by Ghost rider,a charater on the show.I would like to know first of all,
1.who makes the best kit of the 69 in 1/25th?
2.when it comes to aftermarket stuff for this kit who would be the best place to get ALL I need for it? I do mean everything.Anything and everything needed for the engine,interior,rims,tires ect...I have seen at model shows mind blowing works so there is a place.
3.Also,the show had said that the color was blackstone black,what the hell is blackstone black?
Thank you and I hope you can help me.

The best 1969 Dodge Charger in 1/25 is probably the Revell ProModeler '69 Charger R/T (Kit #5937). Best to try to get the reissued version as the original has some body issues). Unfortunately, it does sit a little high, but this article will tell you how to correct that: Build a General Lee Ok, so it's about the General Lee from "The Dukes of Hazard", but you get the idea.

The Model Car Garage makes a nice P/E set for the 1969 Charger . Along with some other parts.

Since I'm not familiar with Ghost Rider's Hell Charger, I really can't help much more than that. I'm really a truck modeler that dabbles in cars, so I'm not as familiar with the model car aftermarket.

I'm not sure that Blackstone Black is, either. But a good Gloss Black will probably suffice. We're not quite as picky about colors over here on "The Shiny Side" as armor modelers are. You know, 14 different shades of Olive Drab & 57 varieties of gray!

If I find any more aftermarket vendors, I'll be sure to post them.

Also, I don't know how many forums you belong to, but the guys over here really know there stuff!

Good luck with your project.

Jim

Interesting project.

At Modelroundup you can find, the kit & pe-parts James mention. In addition they have a set of Crager wheels.
