  1. Regardless, it will be a sweet Camaro.
  2. Thanks guys, I was sweating on the color but finally got it!
  3. Not quite settled on the interior yet, but I think it will be light colors. Maybe white and gold? No need to heat the punch. I take a little out of the inside of the tube with the point of the blade, then cut to length. After that I stand the stubby on end and tap the tool with a light hammer. I only had one that split, but I did hit it to hard! I used 3/32" tube, it's a little bigger than the metal stacks I have seen and that is the look I wanted. You could use any size.
  4. I like the rear treatment, and if I may. The window should be closed in some as you stated.
  5. Thanks Dave, here it is fresh out of the spray booth. It'll set for awhile before BMF.
  6. Thanks guys, John, the stacks where made from EverGreen tube. I used the leather tool to flare them after thinning out the edge a little with a knife. Yes that is a BBC from the Baldwin Motion Camaro kit, I did fill in the outer stripe on the roof and the head lights just seemed to fit. They are from the Modified Stocker hauler kit. The idae was to simplify the body without making it look to much like a Chevy. Thanks again for the comments.
  7. I made a hasty choice the other day, and deleted my own post. I have made an attempt to set things right and will start a new post for this build. I have the final body color done and I'm very happy with it at this point. I'll post more as time allows. I welcome your comments or questions about this build, thanks guys. James
  8. I have discovered the extra $$$ for an original most times is worth it. While it is nice to see repops, I do hope the manufactures would at least clean things up before distributing. I have been disappointed more often than not, with the re-released kits. I hope you build your truck Dr. sounds cool.
  9. That looks pretty good.
  10. Only one warning point!

  13. Not a NAPCAR fan, but that is a nice build you have there.
  14. WOW, is that nice or what!
  15. Right or wrong, I have had to wait until spring to find many a tool!
  16. Well done. I know there was a lot of scratch building, modifying and test fit'n go'n on in there.
  17. If I didn't know better, I'd say ya sent that out to the Yost Body Shop! So far I have resisted building this kit because of the amount of others doing it, but you are not helping me, I like it.
  18. Too cool!
  19. I like it!
  20. Yea, that's the look right there!
  21. Coming along nicely. I kinda like that yellow. Don't forget the tail lights!
