R. Thorne Posted June 11, 2024 Posted June 11, 2024 (edited) This build was gonna be a replica of my friend Thomas Arnett’s car, but, lack of wheels and the unusual paint trim waylaid those plans. This build represents a Stocker from about 2008 era. Paint was Tamiya TS10 French blue (applied 3 times due to operator clumsiness) and TS30 silver leaf. Details of my screw up are in the WIP section. By the way, I still only used 1 can of the TS10 paint. It was a fun build and many new and different things were tried out. Maybe now I can finish the 56 and 57 Chevies. Edited June 11, 2024 by R. Thorne Add 7
espo Posted June 11, 2024 Posted June 11, 2024 Great looking paint color and finish. Like that you added the sub frame connectors.
Maurice Henderson Posted June 11, 2024 Posted June 11, 2024 Nice job on the build..Clean looking A/SA like you would see at any drag strip..I really like you added the Cal-tracs to the rear suspension..You won't find too many Stockers at the track without that system on them..Nice addition to all the other features..Job well done.

Thanks, guys. Stockers are way cool.
Zippi Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 The 69 Camaro is looking pretty sharp there Ron. That Tamiya TS10 looks really nice.

Bainford Posted June 25, 2024 Posted June 25, 2024 Good looking stocker, Ron. I really like that shade of blue on this build. Great stance and overall look. Nice work.
