That GOAT is looking cool and those three maroon ones, WOW, fantastic trio! Awesome modelling, can't wait to see the wagon finished, and happy that Covid didn't set you back TOO much. Cheers! -

1: I found this cool rear bumper in my parts box, and wanted to put it in close to the body. 2: I got it tucked in and added aluminum exhaust tips, and those tail lights from Norm. They're tiny and foiling them was "trying" but like all Norm's stuff, well worth it! 3: The front bumper posed another problem, it doesn't have any design elements that are compatible with the custom rear bumper! 4: So I totally re-designed it into split bumpers, thinner and more like the rear in profile. 5 and 6: Then I foiled it (them) and thinned the mounting brackets.

Looks really good and it'll be a crowd pleaser as there's not many 6 cylinder Camaros built and displayed. Very cool!

Wow, that looks great! Never built an Ebbro kit, looks like it's well made? Love your paint scheme, looks nice!

The kit windshield was a perfect fit for the opening, too bad there was no place to glue it! 1: I made my own windshield, slightly larger than the opening, and made A pillar covers and a top header to hold it in place. 2: I foiled the mirror face and painted the rest flat black, you can see my sun visors and A pillar covers. Interior is pretty complete, test fitted and now to glue it all together!

The whole interior, except the dash and the door tops are Tamiya fine white primer. Oh and the floor is flat mix of golds because I couldn't find proper flocking, but it's barely visible. I made some old school arm rests to add a bit more depth to the kit panels. 1: I start by making the indents on a piece of styrene leaving enough room for mistakes, here I didn't make any! 2: I cut them to the approximate size. 3: I glue them to another pice of the same styrene strip. 4: I file them to shape, they of course are not perfect, they do the job though. 5: Here's what they look like glued on. 40 Ford steering wheel, '53 pickup column, knobs drilled out and replaced with dress pins, parts box shifter and parts box pedals.

On to the interior: 1: I made some door tops for the interior, .015 styrene sheet. 2: I marked each one on the side to be glued. 3: I painted them to match the body and dashboard. 4: Here's how they'll look installed.

Your Torino is looking great, that engine detail is fabulous! Surely you can fine new whitewalls. Keep on it man, it'll be a beauty!

Great colour choice and I LOVE the wheel/tire combo, model on brother!

I love the Vallejo "model air" paints and they come in many nice shades of tan and they have a great finish for interiors as is! These are two different shades of Vallejo, airbrush ready (pre-thinned)

Can't remember where I got this paint, I THINK it's from Bob, BOB'S PAINT. Mixed 4 to one, shot over a gold base, over Tamiya white primer, then cleared with Mr. Hobby UV cut.

I decided to reshape the trunk lid, and I have the body in paint, candy gold, here's that trunk lid, non opening.
