Thanks, Bob. Like I said, I think the switch plate is a little too big but that's about as small as I can work. I finish the chassis and am feeling good about it and then I realize I put the rear brake rotors on backwards. I can either leave it that way or cut off the calipers and try to make new ones to install in the correct position. Don't know if it's worth the effort. Bummer.

Pierre, I'm glad I'm getting in fairly early on this wip. This is really going to be great. That blue is very deep and stunning. Curious it's not Green? I wonder what the story is behind that. Looking forward to more progress on this one.

Another Wow, Pierre, That yellow looks spectacular. If you had a wip on this one, I totally missed it. Looks perfect as usual. If you can build one of these, A NextGen nascar would be nothing for you. I might need your help on the recipe for a yellow I'm going to have to do on a Nextgen Penske Mustang in the future. Again, some fabulous work on this one.

Wow, Pierre, I had no idea you had finished this one. Really excellent build and driver too. Looks just like the ref photos and the paint looks perfect as usual. Now I need to find the 911. I guess I'm getting too old to keep up.

I was following along on the 64 Sebring deal, but it hasn't updated lately, and I did not know you had finished it. Didn't know anything about the 911.

Thanks, Pierre. The switches are .020 rod. When you use enamel chrome paint touch it on with a tooth pick a couple times on the tip which makes the tip a little bigger like a toggle switch. Jag project? where will it be?

Finally got the switch plate and the digital mirror installed. The switch plate is too big, but I couldn't make it any smaller. My hands and eyes can't work any smaller. Just a couple more things to do to the chassis.

Tim, don't know how I missed this one. Sharp and clean and beautiful as usual. Just like all your fantastic builds.

Super clean beautiful build. Stance looks perfect.

Thanks, Jason. Thats the picture I used loosely to do mine. My switch box is a little different from that one but basically the same. I had to make mine thinner to get in behind the shifter.

Not correct, but without ref images, I'll just have to guess. It's hard to see this stuff when its installed anyway. the teams are sure secretive about what they let out there. Not a whole lot left to do on the chassis. Lookinf forward to moving on to the body.

Okay guys. Any updates? This is very interesting building you got going on here.

Very clean and beautiful , Jason. I see no flaws at all. Love the attention to detail.

In some ways it kinda resembles a 66 Fairlane but more boxy. Especially in the roof. What engine did they run in that. Don't see any clues on the hood about cubic inches. I don't even remember what Rambler had back then.

Excellent build, Tony. I like your attention to detail. You have taken no short cuts with this build, and it is perfectly clean as well. A real joy to look at.

Coming along very nicely. I will be staying in tune with this one. Lumina's were fine race cars.

Excellent build. Looks like the decals held up very well. Wish Salvinos could make modern truck kits. I would definitely build a couple of those.

I have noticed that the Salvino NextGen Camaros hood will not fit flush if the air cleaner is installed. Thats why I did not install it but place it on top of the engine to take under hood shots. I keep it in the model case off of the engine when displaying the model. I am going to try to fix it on the Nextgen Camaro I am now building. I have seen a few finished Camaro's that the hood does not fit flush. I guess those builders are okay with it.

Got the switch plate done. Just need to paint and install it. It's not correct, but I really don't know what it looks like in the real car. It's just kind of a generic one. Got the dash painted and did more to the chassis.

Started on the switch plate and got the dash panel installed. I messed up the paint in a few places, so I had to reprime in places. I will repaint the dash tomorrow. The switch plate is just a made-up part because I could find no ref pics of the one, I'm doing. Just need to make some toggles for the switches and install and then paint everything and install it.

Dave, my wife owned a gray 1984 z-28 which was the same generation as your Camaro. It had gold stripes and had the back glass louvers just like yours had. They rattled something terrible but looked really cool. Had a 4barrel 305 engine which was kind of a dog. We couldn't afford the IROC version or maybe it had not come out yet. I really can't remember.

Thanks, Martin. No the dash panel nor the switch plate comes in the kit. Hopefully the 2023 kits will have these two items.

Somebody built a NextGen Camaro and built their own switch plate. I've been trying to find it for reference to make one to get the size right, but I can't remember the builder. If you see this, could you post a picture of your switch plate in your model here, so I can gauge how big I should make mine? Thanks.

Thanks, guys for sharing. Those cars were such big battle ships back then but back then they didn't seem that big at all. Now everybody is driving around in small suv's.

Got the dash panel mostly finished. I just need to make some small patches to fill in the voids. I still have to make a switch plate for this one. The overall build is moving much better on this one than the last one.
