  1. could you please pm me when these become available?
  2. I have built the a/12 option in both the roadrunner and coronet. I used the wheels from the 68 charger. I built front hubs and filled the holes for the rear. They worked fine for both the builds. Of course i used the satco redline tires. I would like some of these wheels as well if they become available in resin.
  3. I also found out by accident that if you clear over the blushing it will disappear. I did this with a metallic paint job. Blushing was the word i was looking for earlier. Good luck with your project hope you post pictures when your done.
  4. When i paint i prep the body then wash and let it dry. Anytime i sand the body i rinse it and use a toothbrush to scrub the body seams and crevises. Once i get to the clear coat stages i use a tack cloth specifically for basecoat clear coat finishes. I only wash with dawn dish soap until i actually start the painting process. I live in seattle so i have to deal with paint fogging and humidity as well. Good luck with your paint. Black is touchy even in the 1 to 1 car world.
  5. Sounda like you have fogging from humidity. I would let it cure a few days. Wet sand lightly and put on a few more coats. Are you painting in a humid area?
  6. A picture would be nice. Is that possible?
  7. By the way what is the color of christines engine.
  8. Nice job. Nice job.
  9. Sorry for the post layouts. Started using another sight. Then photobucket came back so used them. Enjoy the pictures. Onto the coronet now. Thanks for the kind comments.
  10. I should have clarified front clip is 69 to retain the lower lights and meld with body. The grill is 68. I just modified the wheel lip mouldings to smooth the body.

  17. This is my first online build. It is a combined kit of a 1969 mpc camaro and firebird. The chassis, interior and engine are from the fir ebird kit. The decals are from a 69 camaro with firebird emblems on the nose and tailight panel. The wheels are cragars to stay with the 60's theme of the car. The tailights and mirrors are from a 87 firebird. I shaved the doorhandles and replaced them with photoetch detailmaster door handles. The license plate is a custom washington plate. Enjoy. On to the next project. Just tap the picture to enlarge.
