Here is a 1/8 scale camaro I'm working on. This is a learning project. I'm learning to solder brass, and I'm fabricating the engine and rear differential from styrene. I'm not super happy about the wheels. They are for 1/10 RC cars from the local hobby shop. I'm looking at getting a resin 3d printer soon so I can start printing parts. I've reached out to dozens of people about making wheels, and Noone wants to do it. So, I'll attempt it myself. 

 

It's very slow going. I'm learning skills to build another 1/8scale model in the future. Wish me luck.

Wow. Impressive undertaking…especially if you are just now learning how to solder. Good Luck with this and future projects.👍
