[MOC] [MOD] Dodge Challenger SRT - 10295 b-model

Dodge Challenger is one of my favorite cars.  Both, the first generation and the current one, regardless of the edition, always gives me the effect of an uncontrolled wide smile on my face.  After Lego released the Technic 42111 Dodge Dom set, which didn't really appeal to me, I lost hope of a 16 stud wide Creator like Mustang.  However, in order not to disappoint Dom and faith in the family, the idea was born that it could be built from the 10295 set.

In anticipation of your comments, yes I know it is too short.  It would be useful to extend it by 2 studs.  One on the hood and the other in the cabin.  In the middle part it was my conscious choice, but the second one turned out to be an accident at work.  Unfortunately it can be seen very much.  The second biggest problem with the Challenger is the B-pillars and the roof.  I'll not talk about it.  Contrary to the Hummer, I tried to make as few compromises as possible and used most of available bricks.  There is a steering axle connected to the steering wheel.  16 studs wide.  Openable door and hood.  A mock-up interior with folding seats.  What I am most happy about is the back section, which I had absolutely no idea for when building it.

These single-set rebuilds are a lot of fun.  It reminds me a bit of the times when as a child I got my first sets and tried to reproduce the models that were presented on the back of the boxes.  It seems to me that the fashion for rebuilds came from nostalgia for those times.  In my case it is just like that.  In addition, creating instructions is something completely new which also gives a lot of satisfaction.  The one for the Challenger took me a lot of time and work.  Its design is as challenging as the model itself.
