What are all those extra pieces in the new R/M Dodge kits?
Part numbers 37 and 38 are the roof spoilers. Roof spoilers are for the 2001 season only; they were not used in the 2002 season. They are in all the Dodge kits but not mentioned in the instructions for Sterling Marlin’s Dodge. Part 42 is a brace for the engine compartment. The pins line up with the holes in the chassis bars. They are also not mentioned in the instructions, but will fit fine. Apparently Part 43 is also an engine compartment brace, so you have your choice. Part 80 appears to be a radiator hose, but is not mentioned in the instructions anywhere. This part appears to be superfluous.
