Has anyone here converted the AMT 08' Camaro to a TA??

Using the Jimmy Flintstone Conversion Body? I received mine last night and I started cleaning it up, and fitting the hood. I had to use green putty to tighten up the gap between the hood and the fenders. I let it sit overnight, and I sanded it down this morning. I had to add a small amount to an area this morning, and I left it to sit while I am at work.

So, has anyone completed their conversion of this kit?

If you have, would you post some pictures.

Thanks

I don't know how big that gap is you had to fix, but I do know that green putty can lack strength, and tends to dry slow, and has shrinkage issues. Thin plastic strips, superglued to one or more edges will sand smooth and form a clean edge.

I have seen the late-model Camaro transformed into a T/A. If I come across any pics, I will post, if the builder(s) don't do so first.
