I think it's a great idea. Love the wheels, they really go with your concept. Bob

Thank you for the kind words Joe, Scott and Virgil! The paint on the Willies (now stripped from it because of a Future overkill) was a one-shot lime something-or-other. Bob

I was thinking that the subject of this thread meant what specific tooling has been used in the most released kits. Bob

Last I heard SRT brand is on it's own, also Hummer, they are no longer part of Chrysler. Bob

Thanks for all the kind words Billy, Jim, Mike, Ray, Caleb, Felix and Rob! If I were to do this one over, (and I DO have another '40 Ford) the first change would be to use the Cobra windshield and frame. Next would be to not lose the headlight lenses. The wheel openings need a softer touch and the front fenders widened and the rears rotated down towards the front. This was version 2.0 because I ripped it apart and moved things around after having the first go at it. Oh, I also did all the bodywork without remembering to NOT erode the front and rear light openings. Here is the method used to plan the cutting... ...the thumbs are 1:1 scale. Before doing another '40 Ford, this now stripped Willies is running around my head... Bob

Very nice build. I have been keeping my eyes on the lookout for this kit and you have done it justice! Bob

Only about 70% happy with this... Bob

I took these pics at some car shows in 2009, is it the same car?

I like it! Gives me ideas on what to do with my kit, the hood got melted. Thanks for posting your work. Bob

Thanks Danny. Rob, that bright Camaro was dumped in Super Clean, then Easy Off and finally brake fluid. The brake fluid made the paint rubbery/soft and the discolouration is what happened a few days after pushing my finger nail into the paint, it spread out from the indents but I could not "tear" anymore off. Bob

Thanks for the comments all! To bobthehobbyguy, I used a Revell SCCA kit for the chassis and the wheels are from that kit. To Jantrix, if you are talking about the stripped 3-piece Camaro, what is left is the plastic after bondo was removed and the warped look is just not having the pieces lined up for the pics. Bob

Nicely done, love the mean stance! Bob

Found them... Bob

This IMSA Camaro is the "after" shot, I'm looking for the "before"shots. This was an early try at major body mods and it had a few cracks that could not be fixed, also the raised hood turned concave after many years... Bob

Updates... Located some parts and it now both might be salvageable. ...the Camaro needed a new kit, which I now have. These pics show how rubbery the body ended up after stripping methods, funny thing is some of the parts stripped perfectly...

I have a kit that has resisted everything you have used and I gave up, total loss. Bob

Jonathan, your 2 links are the same. Any chance of re-posting that long list link please? Bob

Ya, I MIGHT have gotten into RC years ago (I am not posting this to sell things, most of them are gone anyway)... Bob

I like it a lot. The details are great, the grill, gauges, etc., are well done! Bob

First car that I had/drove legally was an orange woodie Astra wagon. I got a job delivering pizza the day before the drivers door packed it in. Thanks Dad! Bob

Any idea of what stores might carry this mag? I'm in Toronto and would drive anywhere in the city to buy it. Bob

This was an aftermarket kit-in-a-bag... Bob

Thanks for the kind words Terry, Shane and Sam Bob
