HIGHWAY MASTERS SCCA CAMARO

[chris coller]

I picked this up at my local flea market for $2. I am attempting to throw some detail at it as well. I am using Pro Tech braided line and carb, Detail Master fittings, a seat belt set from Studio27 and a few more things as well. It will be a wheels off style build. The torsion bars and radius rods will be from RB Motion when I get around to ordering them. The rear overflow tank is made from K&S aluminum tubing and sheet.

This is what you get after a week or so working on the car. The decals will be from Slixx although I have no idea what they look like because the don't have a pic of them on their site. So I will be surprised when the get here. So here you go

wow dude that is awesome! who makes that kit? i want one!!!

[chris coller]

It's made by Revell. I built one when I was like 17 and didn't turn out all that well. So for $2 why the heck not!

[vizio93]

do you have the box art?

Nice work Chris. Watch the fit and relationship between the hood, body and front fascia, it takes some work for a good fit which is probably why I never finished the one I had.

Here is a pic of the decals.

Now, that's a darn fine start Chris....two thumbs up here..

I might hang around for this one, as I got one at about the same stage you are....just haven't been able to get back to it....

Very much looking forward to seeing more...

cheers

Very cool Chris, you are doing miracles with this thing!!

Once again the awesomeness of your builds continues to amaze us mere mortals. If it looks this good in photos, it should be a knockout in person. Get 'r done for the Showdown! I also built the Hot Wheels Camaro when it came out, for Nick to display in his room. It didn't turn out that great, and thankfully he played with it and destroyed it.

Turned very good for a 2$ kit

Your is extremely nice, Trans Am was always the best thing to do with American cars!

A small update on this project. I got some of the lines tied down. Got the front brake rotors/calipers all but buttoned up. I need to scratch built the hubs and lug studs and add some coil over shocks on all four corners. Also need to make the rear radius rods for the rear axle and as well as finish up the brakes. A few more parts and I can wrap this fun project up. Detailed the wheels with a white gel pen and decals from an Indy Car decal set. Here yo go

Wow man that's looks really good since i last saw it .

[envious8420]

very cool for 2 bucks,

your rear tires are both for the same side though looking at the directional markings.

Another incredible build! After seeing it at the show Sunday, I can't wait till it's done. This paint scheme, along with the Hot Wheels and Rain-x cars were my favorites. Hey Chris, now you'll have to get Paul Gentilozzi to sign the roof with a big Sharpie!

[chris coller]

Can't ruin my paint job with some drivers autograph! This subject I wanted to try and throw some detail at. I am happy so far. Just hope I didn't jump the gun and put the rear axle in to soon. I am thinking it might mess up my plans for the rear radius rods.

Sweet

Paint and Decals look great.

Detail is just unbelievable..

Awesome work..
