KBB Sponsor, Elliot car, 2022 Camaro, Salvino JR

[dougwintz]

This is my second SalvinoJR car. I added seatbelts, a 3d printed dash, ignition wiring, hood pins. I wanted to find a paint color that was closer to what the 1:1 car has, so I tried RustOleum "Peaceful Blue"  I would like to know more about how the plumbing all connects for my next NASCAR build. Any suggestions are welcomed.

I am a new modeler just started in early 2024, how hard are the salvino kits?

Hi Zack. I would say the salvino kits are a mixed bag in terms of difficulty. The body and decals are relatively easy to manage. The frame and suspension are difficult. I found that purchasing a jig helped set the ride height and the position of the frame. There's some trimming of the frame parts that needs to be done. Both are described in the video below. I like the fact that there are so many kits available from Salvinojr. Great to see a model company that has been growing instead of shrinking.
