jbattersby Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 The El Camaro you see here is a project I started during Winter 2014, and just recently completed a couple of days ago. The Model is a mix of an unfinished Revell 1978 El Camino Model I had laying around, and Monogram's Frank Iaconio's Pro Stock Camaro. I have always wanted to see what an IROC style El Camino would have looked like, so this was a great chance to try something and have a bit of fun with the surgery. The final bodywork is not my best but I just wanted to wrap up the project and move on to something new. The Interior is basically the stock El Camino interior except for the seats which are from another IROC donor model. I hope you guys enjoy the pics!

RestoModGuy Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 well done! nice blend. I have this similar build started using a 70 Camaro front and tail on the 86 Camino, but I think I like your blend better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumblebi Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Awesome build. Bernt Karlsson built one El Camaro in the 90's and one a few years ago, on the current generations of fitting GM cars; this reminds me of those a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikemodeler Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 That is a nice "What if?" rendition. I agree, it's a shame GM didn't think of that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
