Reeves Racing Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) This is another kit bash of mine. MPC's 79 Camaro and Revell's Prostock Firebird. Slixx decals. Custom mixed red paint airbrushed. Reliable Resin Centerlines. Lee Shepherd was my favorite Prostock driver of all time. I plan on building his 82 Camaro soon. Mitch Edited April 26, 2010 by seveeRRacing
prostock100 Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 One of my favorites also. Great build Mitch !!!
Ben Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 Beautiful job!!!!!! Just out of curiosity, why didn't you go with the Drag Lites like in the picture?
John Teresi Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 Very nice......inside and out.......can`t wait to see the next one.
Reeves Racing Posted April 27, 2010 Author Posted April 27, 2010 Beautiful job!!!!!! Just out of curiosity, why didn't you go with the Drag Lites like in the picture? Mostly because I used this picture as inspiration... The other picture was bigger and made for a better back drop.
mikelo Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 Very nice! I was a fan and attempted a couple times to do this build. Glad to see one done. Mike
W117monte Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 His cars were the best looking prostock cars ever in my opinion! You did a heck of a job on it!
Dragline Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 What a wonderful build. It's inspiring me to finish my own R*M car. See what ya started?????? Bob
crowe-t Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 (edited) Great job Mitch! Lee Shepherd was my favorite Pro Stock driver too. I built his 82 Camaro years ago but it's currently in storage now and don't have any pictures. Edited September 4, 2010 by crowe-t
W-409 Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 Very nice looks looks like 1:1! Very nice job with the decals and detaliling is super! Good job with it!
Nitro Neil Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Nice, I have had all the same kit/parts/decals in a paper bag on my bench for way too long. I am going to use your model as inspiration to build mine. I have a friend who is a big Bob Glidden fan, and I just say the words "Lee Shepherd" when he starts going on too long about Glidden. That usually shuts him up for a while. Gone too soon.
camarobuilder Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 (edited) Very nice build. A great tribute to 2 greats that we have lost...Lee Shepherd and Buddy Morrison. Edited November 22, 2010 by camarobuilder
cody Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 I have a pic of his 82 camaro from the 82 gator nationals. My dad took me to the races when I was 9 and I got a pic of his car in the staging lanes. Nice job on the build!
Build Up Boy Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 AWESOME build! Shepherd was a GREAT driver, miss seeing him in action. If ya got hte time build 2 of those 82 Pro-stockers, it would make a great X-Mas present! Marty

Marty Not only a great driver but a head wizard, befor the word of big chif pontiac, dart, brodix, merlin and so on Lee Shepherd had some 900 hr. rework intake runer and exh. ports. The man was BADDDDDD!!!!!!! He make POWER. Thanks Lee Shepherd and Thanks U Bro. for the build. Edited November 23, 2010 by baddgass
Reeves Racing Posted February 20, 2011 Author Posted February 20, 2011 Thanks for the nice comments. I just finished up Lee's 83 Camaro too.

jeff ewaskey Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) Wow, another impressive RMS Camaro!!!! You seem to have building them down to an artform. Lee Shepherd was truly one of the greats. Totally awesome job on "BOTH" of your RMS Camaros. Edited February 23, 2011 by nhrafan
