Carl, Chris, David and Mario, thank you so much. David, no, it had the ancient Monogram no name vinyl tires they put in every kit from that era.
-
That came out great. And it's something different and looks good in the yellow you chose.
-
I really like this build. That color is very vivid and looks perfect on this car. Wheels really look good.
-
Well done build, I like your background too.

Outstanding build. The details are exceptional especially the engine compartment. -
Very well done, it's a decent kit I've built two of them.
-
Now that's definitely a crazy, fun looking build. Very nice paint.
-
Very sharp, looks great in that color.
-
Very nice Poncho. Great color, I like the wheels and tires a lot, beautiful photos in the sun.
-
Very nice Vette, nothing like a first year roadster for total coolness. Well done.
-
Very cool 41. I like the paint color and the white top, and those wide whitewalls really set it off.
-
Michelle and Larry thanks very much.
-
That's different, I like it. Very cool build.
-
Excellent, very nice build.

Very nice build. I think that's the first one I've seen built stock. I really like the green with black fenders. Well done.
-
That's a beautiful build. Very clean, well designed, excellent craftsmanship. Very vibrant yellow glossy finish.
-
Jeremy, Curtis, Garry, Steve, Doyle, Bill, Mathias, and David, thank you all for the very kind words.

Thanks Tom. House of Kolor has beautiful and very vibrant golds and silvers in their paint line. They're great as base coats for their Kandy Kolors, or stand alone Kolors by themselves.

This is a pretty easy kit to build. I actually built this about 10 years ago but only recently finished final details. Pros: Easy assembly, nice rendition of the Camaro, it looks like a Z/28 when complete. Once the body is prepped, it's ready for primer and paint. That simple. Pretty decent interior, T-tops which some like, some don't. I don't care for them in a kit but that's a personal preference. Chassis and engine detail is fairly simple but with a little work and detailing they look pretty good. Nice decals in different colors. Cons: As stated, a simple kit without a lot of detail, however, it's still worth building. Front fascia doesn't fit very well, and I decided to mold it in which gives it a more finished look. Engine compartment lacks detail, with no separate parts (brake reservoir, battery, etc.) and because of that, I just added wires and hoses and called it finished. What is there isn't accurate. I couldn't resist painting the engine Chevrolet Engine Orange, although I think by this point in the car's life they were painted Corporate Blue. Details: I airbrushed the build in House of Kolor Solar Gold over light grey primer, with House of Kolor Klear, then polished. Interior was painted Testors enamel flat beige. I think it was Radome Tan with a little white added from their former military range. Wheels and tires are Fujimi items I'd had in the stash for some time. Not my most detailed build but it was easy and fun to work on and makes a nice shelf model.

Very nice build. Black is difficult to get right but yours looks great, well done.
-
Beautiful yellow, nice and bright, excellent build.
-
Very well done conversion and the car looks beautiful in that color. Nice and low and looks fast sitting there.
-
Outstanding Michelle. Very cool build. And that Nano skin? I want it, lol. I like the figure too. All around excellent stuff.
-
I really like this build. A friend had one of these for a while, real fun car. Your replica is excellent. And your photography and background are superb.

Excellent dune buggy. These things were so popular back in the day. Yours is very well done, excellent color and detailing all over.
