Finally finished this, started it 7-8 years ago. Slixx came out with some cool decals for these Camaros that is what got me going on it again. Paint is Tamiya Base White ove Tamiya white primer, interior is Mr Hobby flat red

Nice clean work. I built the Mustang and while it looks OK it SEEMS bigger than 1/24. Either way a decent display model, I did chage out wheels.....how does the Camaro scale out??? I did not pick it up.

Best I can figure it is some where between 1/21 & 1/23. I started the Mustang a couple years ago might try to dig it out to finish. I have also done the Vette and the Ford GT all seem to be oversized with out hitting the 1/20 scale. Here is a pic of my Mustang

Hi Dave!

Curious to get your opinion on the kit's mag wheels. You seem to have swapped them for something else?

The Jada wheels appear to be more "squarish" on the box art... with even more offset than your replacements (Pegasus?)

Mine are Pegasus wheels. The kit wheels are just HUGE! 

Thank you!  You confirm my perception. But I wanted to ask someone who should know, and not just trust my eyes!

I have a few Jada 1/24 diecasts (not model kits) and they always seem bigger then my other 1/24 diecasts or 1/24 Monogram plastic model cars. 

The Mustang above and Camaro in this thread look great.
