  1. The problem is in the tail panel itself, I had to file opposite corners of the openings and fill to correct. Thanks for the heads up.
  2. Model Car Garage has the markers on the 68 Nova set( they are the same on real cars- the rear ones, but there are 4). I did reach out to Keith Marks this morning, I have not gotten a reply yet. I will let every one know if he has anything for market decals. I had to get in touch with him to see if he could do white sport stripes as he only lists black and red. As for the interior, yes, a ton of work. My father’s car had deluxe interior, I now have about 5 hours of work into remaking one door panel( getting close now). I already drilled out the dash to make the vents. I figure I will probably have 25- 30 hours on interior mods alone. Thank you for the info. The pics are after about 2 hours into door panel.
  3. Thank you, I will look into fixing that on body mock up. Interior is going to take some time. I already have over 3 hours into 1 door panel. I will be posting in WIP soon
  4. I remember the car well, I was a kid when he picked it up from dealer. It had ivory/ black deluxe interior, I am reconfiguring the door panels right now. I drilled out the dash to put in vents for strato air. Another thing, the 67 console is different- round gauges instead of rectangular. Does anybody have a console from the 69 that they would want to swap? I already have about $150 in this with the paint I got from MCS and I still have to hit Keith Marks up for the Sport Stripes and the air cleaner decal.
  5. I am trying to recreate a car my father special ordered. It was a 68 RS/SS Camaro with L89( aluminum head 396/375) with the M22 Muncie, Matador Red w/ White Sport Stripe. I know that AMT does have the 68 kit, but I have already purchased both the Nickey and the Revell 67 Camaro SS 396 kits so I could have the proper hood, grille, tail lights and exhaust manifolds. I have also picked up the proper fake hood velocity stacks. I have already modified the upper belt molding to get rid of the vent window, but I can’t seem to find decals for the marker lights. I don’t have a problem reworking the seats for proper pattern. What other issues should I be concerned with and any ideas where I can find the marker lights?
  6. Hi, I’m Rich from central NC. I was an avid builder when much younger, now getting back into it with a decent stash of kits from past/ present.
  7. I just wanted to post that I requested the Pontiac Rally II wheels in 1/16. In a matter of days they were to my door. A+ thank you once again
