Thank you mustang1989

Hello, had to file the motor mounts about a 1/32 . The hood does not want to close. So I did this. Closes now. Always checking for fit issues.

Merry Christmas. The front lower pan caught me off guard. It does not fit very well. I had to fit it after painting which is nerve racking.(sanding and filing) Do this before painting. Made some mounting plates from an evergreen plastic card. It’s very thin. This will make it much easier to glue after everything is in the body and you do have to cuss, er I mean fit it when everything is in the body.

Thank you Tom

Thank you mustang1989.

I love these kits. I have them all except the Camaro. Just gave the lotus away to a friend. He builds 1/20 to 1/24/25 scale f1 and Indy cars. And he is a really great modeler. He has helped me with a few projects so when he said he was interested in the lotus , I gave it to him. Cannot wait to see the results. I had this camaro in 1/1. Some people dog these cars, but I had a blast with mine. I really love the shape and style of the car. You will have a blast restoring these. Great score sir! By the way the lotus engine in the 23 t would be really cool!!!!

Thank you Carl. We have several dogs but they are a lot older and not as active. This one came into our lives and definitely livened up the place!

Thank you Charlie

Always checking the stance. Put the front pan on to check the center of the tire to the body. Tires and wheels have to set in the body nicely. Just bothers me when tires and wheels do not set properly in the body. This is a pet peeve of mine. So far it’s comming out the way I would like.

Thank you Bernard. When I was a kid it was AMT. but now it’s revell. Even the older monogram kits are good. Here is a monogram 55 Chevy. Older kit.

Fantastic sir

One finished , out of box and One wip.

Great job sir!!!

I had just sanded the seam lines and painted it silver. I saw one side was gone. Looked all over and heard a crunching sound. She was just chewing away. Glad it wasn’t the body!!! LOL

Disaster struck! My new 7 month old puppy ate my exhaust. I have a 1968 camaro amt kit I will steal the exhaust from. Here is the culprit.

The stance is a little easier on this kit. Just sanded the rear leaf down a little and made new spindles for the front. So far it’s a nice kit for small mods. Only thing I’m disappointed in is that I cannot use the carb that I wanted to use. Have to use the kit one for hood clearance issues. If I put a cowl hood on, there would be clearance, but I want to use the stock hood. No front or rear spoiler’s, just the stock body. The kit does supply the front and rear spoilers.

Thank you Carl, here is a pic of the chassis with the suspension

Thank you Calb56

Have been working on the suspension. The chassis and suspension are temporarily in place . The wheels and tires are temporarily mounted. But this is where she will be sitting. Really happy with this kit. So far. The kit axle pins work great for mounting the wheel/ tire on the suspension and make a great cap cover for the wheel.

Thank you Bill

By the way I have been insisting on gm products for some time and it’s comming true. If they come out with the grand sport 1963/65 I’m hoping to do that.

Agora has announced this. We knew about it for awhile but could not talk about it. It was kept a secret for awhile now. Everyone wants to build this. I would love to but have not been issued to. We will see. I have a Lamborghini Muira still going. A 1/8 VW bug convertible, a Mazda cozmo, and the GT 500. Plus a pocher 1/8 testarossa to start. My big scale plate is pretty full. But you never know what happens. Anything is possible.

Thank you very much

Thank you, the kit does have the vent windows. I need to put foil on them and I will install the glass and vent windows.
