Underglass started http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/180145-roberts-70-12-camaro/ Just a quick Thanks to you guys for the advise and for following along... now back to the planned builds...

Ok, for those who aren't up to speed a little back story... Over the last 10 years, I've made a few lifelong friends at work... very few... One of these being the maintenance supervisor. He is an older gentleman, planning to retire in the next couple years... a godly man.. a mentor.. a pastor.. a genuine good friend. We have bonded over the years and had several conversation about life, cars and everything in between. He's often said he wished we had been closer in age so we could have hung out back in the day. He's always been interested in my model building and has said on several occasions, "I'm going to get you to build me a car one day." I always responded, "Robert, just say when." Right around thanksgiving, he told me he was thinking about leaving the company for another job offer. We talked about the pros and cons for days.. he prayed on it. Talked to his wife about it, and got my feedback daily... He eventually took the offer and at the end of January, we all said our farewells... On his last day, he brought me a beat up box of the AMT 70 Camaro "Orange car" and a pretty terrible picture. He said, "This is the one I want you to do. Just like mine. This is the only picture I have of my car. Mine was full bumper though. And those wheels don't match mine either." I told him, I'd try my best.. His reply, "Yeah I know. But I ain't worried about it. This way, at least we'll have to get together someday." Since his had a full bumper, I dug my full bumper kit out of the stash... I really never expected to build this car... Here is the picture.. And the journey began... Tamiya TS1 and a set of centerlines from the parts boxes... The decals gave me fits... and I have a couple little things to button up, but we're right at the end of the road for it. I'm looking forward to giving it to him... I just hope he digs it. As always, thanks for looking...

Thanks Steve! About to get her buttoned up... One issue I had that I forgot to mention... the decals are tragic. They look good, but they don't lay down good... and they split into several pieces. I had to piece them all back together. In the process I lost a tiny pieces. I put some white paint in the spot, but I'm gonna have to cover it again... ugh... Gotta add a couple little things but we're getting closer to the handoff... stay tuned.

Gonna look mean all nice and low like that... Nice job on the tubs!

Nice looking chassis/engine you got there. It's gonna be a real looker I'm sure.

I do believe that's gonna look cool... tell her we say model on!

Thank Gareth and David I did... the forward process the next time through was not so smooth. But I think I got it all worked out. Letting things dry so I can put some finishing touches on it.

digging this already.. I picked up that exact kit to do this sort of think with. I'll be following along

Thanks Carl... Made a lil bit of progress today... Got the assembly line going. Everything was going good, until I realized I forgot to put the grill in... duh... had to bust it all back open and start again. Oh well... gotta gig tonight so looks like that's it for this weekend. Stay tuned...

Steve that came out awesome

very nicely done
