Thanks! I will do my best Yes its fun, especialy that I can build it as i would like to build it. Thanks mate!

So I have had an idea to make a replica of the Camaro that I imported to Sweden from CA back in 2009. And this week I got hacking on it. I wanted to make at top as I had so I had purchased a ‘93 amt to kit bash to make the best ‘98 I could. I first started by hacking out the grill with a 10 blade so I can replicate my one that only had the uruthane bumper and a polished grill so the plastic grill insert had to go. next up was the t tops which meant hacking up both the ‘93 and the ‘98. Make a new reinforcement piece to replicate the 1:1. I decided to keep the revell windscreen due to the wipers on the amt was molded to the glass. I will be using the amt chassi and most part of the interior since it’s more accurate in my opinion with the sail panels and speakers.

Sweet build! looks just right!

Sweet build!

Nice build! Your body mods looks great and improves the look many times! I have a couple of 1/16 kits and seen some more, and I feel like they are just upscaled 1/25 or 1/24 kits with low detail overal. Some might be better but the ones i have all need allot of work to be worthy the scale difference to their smaller siblings. And over all allot of things have been simplifyed and might look toyish. I can not talk for the Chargers though since i have not seen these.

I have started to paint the engine and components.. looking mighty fine!

Nice build! One of the coolest 55’s! Nice work on that hinge and firewall.

Sounds like my cup of tea! My last OBS would definitely fit right in this category! And Dan, your plan sound much as my build recipe?

Nice work!

Nice build! Decals must be PITA! But looks good when done!

Thank you sir Tanks for those words

Thank you Carl! Thanks! even though its "almost" stock

Made some progress now when the Porsche is done. roof is sanded and primed to look for imperfections. Front suspension is in. Next is to drill and tap them so I can have them turning.

Thank you verry much!

Looking great! Makes me wanting to finish my Supra wide body.

Thanks Emre! There is some masking required! Most interesting was the bumper rubber seal on the top which had to be eyeballed

Thank you! Yes he enjoyed it a lot! Thank you for those words!

Nice!

Beautiful build on a modern classic! Great kit to, I have two, one rebuilder that is up soon and one mint not started. Missing parts though so I need to buy the big detail up kit I believe.

Great build! What does such a custom decal work go for?

Thanks mate! They suit the car well. thank you sir! Thank you Enzo!

Thanks! Thank you sir! Thanks Espo! Thank you Dan! Thanks Jon! I might get some better pics with the pair later when he brings it out of storage for summer, he has a good camera as well. his 1:1 is a also a red 911 but a 997, but he always wanted a 1984 911. Hence the gift.

Did some new tires for my Silverado project, AT44's and i did a mockup in the cad program how it might look. I hope its ok to post a digital truck mockup of a project.

Thank you Thanks Mike! I belive i got the stance just right for my taste, i hope my friend enjoy Thank you Roger! I got a detailing spray yesterday so i could make the last clean and ad some final shine, i belive it payed of! Thanks Dan! I planed on having it solid red but the tamiya Laquer i bought was more like a metalic collor, i like how it looks though.

So my Porsche got to the finish line in time for my friend’s 40th birthday tomorrow. It’s a Fujimi curbside kit modified with a Black Box resin engine that I made a custom turbo setup for based on his setup. I modified the floor pan to look more oem with a spare Tamiya GT2 kit I had, where the transmission also was sourced from. 3d printed wheels, tires and brakes. Interior is basic but with Tamiya buckets, arm rests(which the curbside lacs) from a Tamiya BMW. I also flocked the floor and back seat to resemble the 1:1 better.
