[tyrone]

[brett]

looking cool already T, nice work on the wheelie bars

[Nitrozilla]

Great start to a great subject Tyrone. I'm keeping my eyes glued to this.

[thumper86]

I agree it has the perfect stance . looks fast just sitting there thats for sure.

[Mooneyzs]

I have to agree the stance is just Bad A$$ and its perfect.

Man Tyrone this looks perfect, you make me want to go out and by the 1/24 69 yenko camaro and use one of my pro stock kits! I was at the Hobby store last night and saw that Chi Town Hustler with those wheels almost picked it up... I had already spent enough money and had to resist. Let me tell you it wasn't easy!

[futurattraction]

[tyrone]

thanks fellas I really appreciate it.....

That stance is just perfect. It's going to be great build again. That rollgace looks really good and fits nicely under the body. GREAT job with it so far, I'm watching this one very closely.

thanks again fellas, I've got all my tabs on for the trunk and the front end they stil need to be trimmed down, I also got the doors opened up, I cut the hood out for the hood scoop but I'm gonna need a taller cowl than this, so I'm gonna make one, i got the bumpers stripped and stuck them on and I started in the engine, thanks for looking and comments welcome......

these are after the doors were removed and I also trimmed wiper blades off...

[thumper86]

NICE!

[Mooneyzs]

Looking Good... Very nice on the tabs and getting the doors cut out.

Nice Job on the Tabs Tyrone, and very clean job on cutting the doors out! Did you have to do any clean up on the lines? I usually mess up half way though and have to fix something because I slipped. Say a few cuss words and say, "Oh Well.... it is just a model and can be fixed." LOL

One thing I noticed is the shifters, these look much nicer than the old crappy ones that I seem to recall. They were chrome and all in a horizontal line, had no bends or showed them in any certain order.

I have to ask, what Pro Stock kit do you always use, because they seem to go really well with all of your builds. It was like they were meant to go together.

Anyway, awesome job on the progress you are making!

[mikemodeler]

As always, another awesome build and detailing that is beyond my skill and patience level! Whatever color you decide to paint it will be the right one.

[tyrone]

THANKS fellas, your nice comments about my work keep me going....

Robert and Chris thanks alot I really appreciate it..

Bart thanks buddy the kits I use are the r/m 55 & 57 pro sportsman kits, those will work with almost anything after doing some minor trimming here and there, the lenco shifter is the one that comes with the kit. I've found that it's not that bad after stripping that thick chrome plating off, It has some pretty nice detail, while opening the doors I always manage to slip and make a mistake at least once or twice on mine also..lol.. but these turned out pretty good..

Mike thanks buddy, I dont know what color I'll paint it yet but I'm leaning towards yellow w/the SS hockey sticks instead of the Yenko stripes, but we'll see..... thanks again fellas.
