Oh awesome, that is perfect. I have bought probably 100 kits looking for key parts an have missed out on most so this is great. If you need stuff let me know, I am trying not to cast box stock so don't have much ready. Look for stuff by action-modeler an that is me.

Got some interior work completed.The seats have black/white houndstooth so I would need some decals to replicate this. I didn't want to pay the $17 for a sheet from Scale Motorsports so I decided to try making my own. As luck would have it ,I had a pack of decal paper from a decade ago. Thankfully it still worked! My computer skills are less than stellar so the best I could manage was to shrink and repeat an image I found online. It looks to be a bit large in scale but i liked it. I sprayed the base white and taped it off for the decal inserts. I sprayed the whole affair with matte clear at the end. I also removed the factory console and filled it in with epoxy. The flocking covered everything up nicely.

I completed most of the chassis. The real car is in pretty good shape with only a bit of road dust so that's what I replicated.  I used the dirt from the Rustall set. I still need to scratch build the exhaust,fuel system,and rear shocks but I am waiting on an order of styrene to arrive. Traction bars are from the Baldwin Motion Camaro kit.

I built a replica of the Crusher Camaro with the blown big block and finished it last year, based on the Revell '67. I'd show ya a pic but Photobucket is dumb. I love the Houndstooth interior decals. I'd love to have some for mine, as I left my seats plain. 

Looking great so far, keep it up!

Thanks! I certainly looked to your build for inspiration. I had to have one as well.:D

If you are able to use them,I would be glad to send you a section of the decal sheet. Just PM me your address.
