1967 Camaro SS

[Pat Cardz]

OK, here's one I just got started on this weekend.

Most of you know the issues regarding this kit.

I am building this for a friend, he was born in 67 and always wanted a SS Camaro.

I deepened all panel lines and started adding some that were missing, rear deck and lower front valance. I still need to open up the air ducts a little more on the front valance to better represent the 1:1.

The seats in the kit are horrible, I will attempt to make these 69 camaro seats into a better representation of the 67 seats.

I also sanded off part of the trim above the rocker panels. The hood is from MPC's 69 Camaro, its a little long and will require some shaving, and will be outfitted with 67 chevelle hood louvers.

Hopefully I can add the side vent windows without too much trouble.

You're off to a good start, Pat. Haven't seen you around much lately.

I always deepen the door and trunk lines when possible as it makes your model look better. The vent windows should not be too difficult. Get some .040 x .040 Evergreen strips. I've managed to pick up two AMT '67 Camaro annual builders that already have the side vent glass in place.

Thanks Marc!

Yeah this past year and a half has been busy, having two toddlers will do that.

I got the seat pattern changed, I'm pretty happy with the results, just need to smooth out where the headrest used to be.
