Very good eye Mark! But here is the catch, They did start with an RS and shorten the nose a little but also made it bigger. They move the lights from the top to the bottom under the bumper and narrow the bumper up by 1/2 of what the real one was to make this look right. The valance was also remade to fit the new mods on the car. Here is a photo of the car after this was done on all the work from the nose.

Thank you for the kind words. After every thing goes in if it is right then here is how it ends up. I was also able to get the vents with in +/- .005 from any part of where you take a measuerment at. Front the fender body line down to the dooer jam in or to the outer edge of the fender in. Also the vents are with in +/- .003 at any one point from each other in size or angle.

John Teresi told me a lot about the stuff at the last GSL, and yes you can get a chrome look to the point of real chrome from this stuff. He would be the one to do an "How To" on it as it would take a lot to type on each step and there is a part of it that the more you put urathane clear on it the brighter the chrome is.

Putty the running boards in smooth and also got the marker lights taken out and smooth to the fenders front and rear. Both sides are now smooth fitted and also have the vents put in place. The rear section has been cut out and then filled in also.

Front air vent for the LS7 motor intake. This is just the same on how they did the real car as it is really wider the what the intake vent looks like., On the Front side vent this is just a outer vent to let out the heat and then the rear vent also I made a part that has a tube that will go to the rear brakes. The top ruff part is just a mod that they did and the molds is just some of the parts that this car will have on in resin from rim ring sizes to the duel fans for the radiator to the oil coolers
-
Bumper is in the same location, The middle part bumper will be made out of the resin grill using the upper support part of that as it has the same design and angle that is needed to make the two part one that goes across the grill area.
-
ground it out and will be filling it in with putty and smoth it out. The light was relocated to the lower front end area.

Some of the body mods are a lot of vents was put into this car. The hood vents and also nose air induction vent and the relocation of the round running lights. The ruff was just a special job that did to change the look of the car when looking at it from the rear. I open up the trunk and will be doing all the inner work on that and brace with brass parts and then painting them. The turn does not open like a normal camaro as it was changed to open more from the top with a thick lip that will be not seen when the spoiler is put on.
-
Thanks for the kind words. I will have pics of the rim center as it's in ruff stage but will be changed using some cad programs and then in to the 3D Printing when it goes out. A lot of the parts will either be done in the new 3d stuff or changed and then in resin cast for the bigger parts. Plans are for this to having full working hood and trunk.
-
Hood, nose, rear tail section, under pan section, ruff, all for 4 fenders, front and back window section. A lot of the stuff as two to three changes in them.

The tape is for where all the points of measuer line is to do all mods on the sides and the hood and top. There is also some nose work will be done off the center line. There will be over 20 diffrent mods done to the body in all. The tape is for where all the points of measuer line is to do all mods on the sides and the hood and top.

If you was tired of seeing "Runt" in build mold here is the next one in line, "Brute Force" The body mods are now starting to be in place as I open up the vents so they can be molded into the body work

Able to do all this work goes to learning from people on here and the great guys like Hollywood Jim, Mark D Jones, Bob Wix and Tom Nungester and others from the GSL show. I'm not sure if I would be able to do this or even be pushed to do stuff like this if it was not for there input and help. Thank you all.
-
Thank you Rick, I just wish I could have made the front struts work is all. Other then that it's coming together real nice and i'm ready to get the interior done now.

This year has a been a lot of diffrent things. Found out that i'm going to be a grandfather tops it all off. But for the modeling world I was able to get back to doing what I like best and that is 1 off cars and working hand and hand with RPM Custom Hot Rods and Area51 Paint people doing "Runt". For wins I only made 3 shows this year and got to see my friends from Puerto Rico at the Indy show this last Nov and also winning the "Best Replica" with Boyd Coddington Memorial 61 Chevy.
