RestoModGuy Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 My good friends bought this restored 327 1967 Camaro last year and of course with the excellent Revell kit out, had to build a tribute for them. Hand made the cowl hood, steering wheel, BM QuickShifter and hand-painted the "Camaro Club of the Rockies" logo sticker on the rear window, and photo-shopped their actual Colorado Vintage license plate. Pretty happy with the build. The 1:1... of course The tribute... The actual car and Club decal 1:1 Hand made steering wheel with Camaro PE center, added door locks and hand-made BM Quickshifter Handmade triangle air-cleaner and MSD system on firewall
Yahshu Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 A very nicely built represention of the 1:1, from what kit did you acquire the wheels from?
cobraman Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 Looks like you pretty much nailed it ! I like building models of actual cars that people I know or that I had.
RestoModGuy Posted June 20, 2016 Author Posted June 20, 2016 A very nicely built represention of the 1:1, from what kit did you acquire the wheels from? Thanks for the compliment... The wheels and tires came from the old Tom Daniels Custom California Vette. I did make the "slots" larger with my dremel to match the actual. Hard to find deep 5-slots
unclescott58 Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 Great job of recreating your friend's Camaro. Very nice.
bbowser Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 Great replica! Foiling the wheel well trim could not have been easy, well done.
Foxer Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 A beautiful tribute, build and detailing!Cars I have had seems to be where my most fun builds are nowadays .. this one looks like fun.

Canso65 Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 You must have quite a few hours into this build Jim. You did a great job replicating the original. I'm sure your friend is very pleased.
darthsideous Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 You did a very nice job. The paint job looks fantastic.
