Koellefornia Kid Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Hi, guys, here's my first build of 2022. Amt´s ´68 El Camino (street machine kit) which i call the "El Cleano" I removed all handles, badges and trim from the body to give it a smooth and clean look. The stock taillights were also deleted in favour of a set of ´97 Corvette lenses inserted into the tail gate. Added some fuzzy dices to the rear view mirror, otherwise the interior and engine is box stock. Lowered he suspension and added a set of aftermarket 5-spoke wheels. Paint is a custom mixed blue metallic sprayed over VW Reflex Silver. Hope you like it, comments welcome! Thanks for looking 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koellefornia Kid Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 Thanks again, guys, for kind words are much appreciated! 11 hours ago, Bills72sj said: That turned out nice. Did you sand the vinyl top off? Yes I did. Though the vinyl top was nicely detailed in this kit it just interfered with the clean look I was after, so off it went along all the other chrome trim.
