David G. Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Looks like an interesting project. Do you plan to use the molded body color or paint? David G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) I had some troubles with this one. Interference between the tub and windshield/cowl for one. I also wound up separating the subframe from the floor pan and installing them separately. Good luck with it. Check my build thread here if you like. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/133121-amt-70-12-camaro/page/2/ Edited March 3, 2021 by NOBLNG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowmag Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 I will be painting it in Model Master metallic blue with white strips. Have the body work and sanding done just have to prime. I did the interior and engine/subframe some time ago and on test fit found that subframe and floor are best separated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve H Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Hi Alex, this looks fantastic. What clear did you use? I assume it’s polished, very nice shine. I have one of these planned for the fall. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
