'69 Charger
Topic: Theology III '05-'06
Midway through the semester some students at St. Philip Catholic School adopted me praying for me, send care packages, and the like. In my first major care package, my classes sent me wonder goodies and other sundry items. One included a ’69 Charger glue model. I figured this was a chance for me to have a directed break in my studies. It wasn’t until I really started putting the model together that I realized that it is a car from my childhood per se. In other words, the car was a “character” in a TV show I watched religiously with my brother as a kid. That car was the “General Lee” of The Dukes of Hazard. I decided then and there that is what the model would be. I went into the planning stages of how I was to pull off the paint job and decals. The paint job was easy…all I needed was orange paint. The decals presented the problem, but after a few tries with my printer I came up with the decals I needed. Below is the finished product (and an in-process pic)…all I need now is a little Bo and Luke to stand by the car.
