2010 Camaro

Awesome Nova. I love it. Very very nice.

That was very inappropriate. I too find that very offensive. That's all I'll say now because the rest of what I would like to say would just a bunch of "blah". I'll keep the rest of my opinion to myself.

I've been told there's a photoetch set for this. It replaces all the tower structure and a bunch of other stuff. It costs more than the kit, by about double.

Nice job. There was a very short time Ford did use this cab on a F250. It was 7 lug. It was some special project or something. I've seen it in magazines and once in person. 1997 and 1998 they were F250 light duty and then 99 they were F150 7700.

Your profile on the forum is yours, no matter what topic you post in. If you setup an alternate account, you don't really have a limit.

Great work so far. Very nice weathering. Your only allowed so much room on the forums servers. Setup a photobucket or fotki account. Then you can pretty much post pics to your content.

Got the radiator started. It's not going to be exact. I'm just goin for the idea kinda.

BMF looks great. That's how I was gonna start doin the windshield frames, just haven't gotten around to buy in any. It's coming along nicely. Lookin forward to more.

Thanks Tom. The spoons are very nice to sample on. For comparison and see how the colors change over the curves.

I took advantage of the sunny, windless day. Using Pat's, (landman), method of plastic spoons for paint samples, to figure out the yellow. I used 6 different base colors/primers, and the 4 shades of yellow I have, I got some great results. It seems that base colors don't really matter to much, but, I found the Tamiya Chrome Yellow is real close to CAT yellow, Tamiya TS-16 and Krylon sun yellow are just about perfect and Duplicolor Daytona yellow is too light. I played with base colors for the green. Found that base coats really change this color. Since deciding on Krylon Sun Yellow, I resprayed the engine and then sprayed Tamiya Pearl clear over it, just like the 1:1.

Thanks Dennis.

The stretch looks cool. The tan interior looks cool with this color blue.

I started cuttin on the interior tub. I definitely have some work to do here. The same with the door panels. I'm gonna end up scratch building the door panels and putting the flames on them one way or another. At least I can use these as a template. Here's a mock up of how the seats are gonna be. They just how I want them, on the floor.

Thanks man. I may end up making new himges. These are a bit big, but again, it was my first go at them.

Till I can't keep my eyes open or I run out of things to do at the bench or I get to frustrated at the bench. I don't think I've ever looked at the forum on a computer, I'm always on my phone.

Nice job on both JT. I like the Italeri wheels on the truck. The Raptor looks cool.

Both doors are back on the truck. It wasn't too bad, makin the doors open. This was my first attempt ever. I don't think it came out too bad.

That's the coolest truck yet. I never get tired of that truck. It's been around what, 20 some years.

If you do 1 of the "Test" trailers with a Canadian spread, I'll put a deposit on it on Tuesday when I get paid.

Made the first set of door hinges. I used some small aluminum tubing and brass rod.

I think a Canadian spread, for me anyway.

Those sure are some great lookin Petes man. Good lookin builds man.

Another 45 minutes or so and the other door is cut open.

Couldn't wait till tomorrow. I start cuttin on the cab. I have 1 door cut. That only took 45 minutes. And I managed to this without cuttin or stabbing a finger!
