I bought this kit because I owned a 1:1 1980 Z28 and was excited to build my former car. After reading the review on this site and opening the box and looking at the parts I am very disappointed. I've now decided to use this as a platform to learn new things. I remember seeing an article in a car magazine about a custom 1980 Z28 with a whale tail and extended quarter panels. These modifications have always stuck with me, but I've been unable to find any photos of this car online.
What I remember is that the quarter panels were "flat" around the doors, not blended back into the body and the rear ones housed an oil and transmission fluid cooler. They extended out several inches from the stock body. I know I'm not describing this very well, but I can see it in my head.
How would I go about building something like this? I'm guessing some styrene sheets and putty, but I don't know if there might be a better way.
I did manage to find one photograph of a car that looks similar but I'm not sure what the rules are about posting/ linking photos from other sites.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
