Love how this is looking, the blue looks great, love the stance.

A dumb question, does the Revell 67 kit not have the vent window frame?

Thank you, the kit does have the vent windows. I need to put foil on them and I will install the glass and vent windows.

Have been working on the suspension. The chassis and suspension are temporarily in place . The wheels and tires are temporarily mounted. But this is where she will be sitting. Really happy with this kit. So far. The kit axle pins work great for mounting the wheel/ tire on the suspension and make a great cap cover for the wheel.

The stance is a little easier on this kit. Just sanded the rear leaf down a little and made new spindles for the front. So far it’s a nice kit for small mods. Only thing I’m disappointed in is that I cannot use the carb that I wanted to use. Have to use the kit one for hood clearance issues. If I put a cowl hood on, there would be clearance, but I want to use the stock hood. No front or rear spoiler’s, just the stock body. The kit does supply the front and rear spoilers.

Disaster struck! My new 7 month old puppy ate my exhaust. I have a 1968 camaro amt kit I will steal the exhaust from.    Here is the culprit.

You think that if I sent some exhausts your way he could do exactly that for a couple of junkyard cars for me? I probably could not deliberately make such a good rotted out muffler.

I had just sanded the seam lines and painted it silver. I saw one side was gone. Looked all over and heard a crunching sound. She was just chewing away. Glad it wasn’t the body!!! LOL

Always checking the stance. Put the front pan on to check the center of the tire to the body. Tires and wheels have to set in the body nicely. Just bothers me when tires and wheels do not set properly in the body. This is a pet peeve of mine. So far it’s comming out the way I would like.

Thank you Carl. We have several dogs but they are a lot older and not as active. This one came into our lives and definitely livened up the place!

Merry Christmas. The front lower pan caught me off guard. It does not fit very well. I had to fit it after painting which is nerve racking.(sanding and filing)  Do this before painting. Made some mounting plates from an evergreen plastic card. It’s very thin. This will make it much easier to glue after everything is in the body and you do have to cuss, er I mean fit it when everything is in the body.

Hello, had to file the motor mounts about a 1/32 . The hood does not want to close. So I did this. Closes now. Always checking for fit issues.

I can't get over that paint finish!! Looks like glass!!
