69 Camaro Indy Pace Car

[Mike]

It's been a long time since I've built a Camaro (favorite car). An Indy 500 CBP on another forum gave me the motivation. The decals were a bit tempermental due to age. I also added some extra plumbing and wiring in the engine bay. Thanks for looking.

Mike the Camaro looks fantastic. The decals look great even if they are old..

Beautiful! I am working on this kit now. If mine turns out half as nice as yours, I'll be happy. How did you do the woodgrain on the dash?

I hand painted it/dry brushed it. I'll send you a PM.

That Camaro looks spectacular! The '69 Indy pace car has to be my favorite Camaro. I love the white with orange stripes. The orange interior is very cool.

Great looking Camaro

I like the pace car versions...

White lettered tires?

Very nice! I really like the interior detail and the discoloration in the exhaust.

Really nice work. The subtle weathering is very good.

Looks great, Mike! I really like the work you did on the rally wheels. Nicest Camaro ever made, and you have built a great replica of it!

Fantastic build Mike.

Very nice job! Looks terrific. I am supposed to have one coming, minus decals. So I am on the hunt for some. LOL. On the engine bay and the belly shot, is there a yellow/gold tint used, or is that from lighting? Again. Nice job! Jody

It's a mix of base coating the exhaust steel, then drybrushing metallic copper or bronze, gold, & clear yellow and clear blue or using a blue oil paint for a wash.

[Smart-Resins]

That is a terrific touch on that! If only I could learn how to do that and add more realism to some of these Super stockers I have to build! Jody

This is a kit I would definitely like to do someday if I can find one. I've got a stupid question. How did you do the two-tone interior, namely the darker parts of the seats?

They are actually decals that come with the kit. Printed with the classic "hounds tooth" pattern on them. After a bit of Micro Set to get them to snuggle in to the contours of the seats, I painted them over with flat clear to give them a cloth-like appearance in comparison to the vinyl/leather part of the seat.

Great build, one of my favorite cars of all time.
