I would suggest starting with the Revell '67 Camaro instead of any of the AMT kits. The reason being the AMT kits had body proportion issues. Since you're going to be doing body modifications anyway the '68 grill shouldn't be a problem, and the rear spoiler and rear valance area are all going to be fabricated also. The pictures you have should be a perfect guide for the rear. In a resent build on the forum the builder used pieces cut from a plastic spoon to create the fender flares and they looked perfect. I'll enjoy watching this build. I have owned several Camaros in the past including a '69 that I had for a total of 18 years, I was the second and forth owner.

Great looking 4X4. Thanks for the tip on the hood. The tires look perfect. I would consider a touch of paint or a wash on the bead locks on the wheels.

Very nice clean looking build. I just got out of the habit of painting everything that color, now you know what color the next build will be.

The Vette looks great and I really like the colors. The trailer is very nice also. What kit had that in it ?? If you haven't already you should post pictures of your Diorama in that section on the Forum.

Great looking build. The interior almost looks to nice for a Law Enforcement car.

That looks Plum Crazy cool. I also like the wheels.

Great job on the chassis. Very realistic looking.

You sure that isn't a real engine ??

The Hub Caps should be readily available if you list what you need on the Wanted part of this forum. The same for the white walls. Another source for the tires would be Round 2 / AMT offer some very nice Firestone Deluxe Champion tires in both wide and thin stripe styles. Pegsus now offers some wheels and tires now that look great also.

Turned out perfect to the 1:1. Great attention to detail.

Beautiful build. Outstanding attention to all the little details. Very real looking.

Great looking build. Lots off detailing.

Beautiful looking build. I like the front splitter, is that a rear diffuser ??

I have no doubt but what such a vehicle existed at one time. As you mentioned this was and is a common practice in the development of any new model. The paint and interior look great and I'll look forward to watching your build.

I have used the Tamiya Extra Thin Cement and have been less than thrilled with the results. I wouldn't buy it again for all the reasons mentioned by others. For a majority of my assemblies I use Model Master Liquid Cement and sometimes Zap-A-Gap Medium CA+ when needed. Windows I have been using Aleene's Jewel-It that I purchased at a fabric shop. Someone else on this Forum recommended it and I have been using it ever since. Of course there are many other options that other members have tried and they may be worth trying also.

Beautiful looking build. I don't think they would look that good after a few years of service. I noticed the "salt" spreader and how close to the roadway it rides. I think that's a very good idea, around here the KDOT (Kansas Department of Transportation) likes to have them closer to windshield height so that they can spray your hood and windshield and any other car on either side of the truck.

Turned out great. I like the interior, but I think it looks best displayed with the top on.

Looks great. If you ever decide to redo this you could remove the inner fenders that are attached to the frame and then you could add headers.

Great looking build. All of the trim looks perfect to the 1:1. I like the later time period "pin" white walls.

One thing you might try on the trim if you're not already doing it. I would use a #11 blade and outline the moldings just like you were cutting foil. Use a very fine brush with what ever color paint you're going to use, and let a little paint at a time from the brush sort of flow on the moldings. The "cut" from the blade forms a stop for the paint to stay off body panels.

Interesting subject, not familiar with the kit. If you're needing side "glass" you could use some clear plastic and create your own. Did the hood louvers come in the kit or is that something you added ?? The interior is hard to see in the photos but does look good. Is this a curb side or does it have an engine in the kit ??

Very nice clean build. As others have mentioned I think the Flares are a must do.

Great looking build, especially considering the kit. I've given up on two and only use them for parts now.

Great looking Pontiac. The early '60's Pontiacs were some of the best looking cars at that time, and they were fast.

Great looking T-Bucket. The gold trim was the thing at that time.
