Pro Tech Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 Thanks guys, here's another small update. I finnished the rear wheel/tire assembly. I decided to remove the molded on lugnuts on the wheels and drilled them out to accept .025 Evergreen rod along with my PTMC 25 Hex Fittings for the lugnuts. I also added my PTMC 72 Tire Valve Stems then gave everything a light wash for that raced look. Thanks for looking. Charlie Pro Tech protechmodelparts.com
gasser59 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Very nice Charlie. I know these seem like small steps but they're spectacular.
W-409 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Absolutely Great job with this Camaro FC. Interior looks very good to me, and I like those rear wheels and tires too. They look very realistic. These builds make me want to buy some Pro Tech Parts from the next Model Car Contest.
Dragracer Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 The wheels look great Charlie!, I've seen the lug/stud idea on your website & plan on using it myself, I'll be posting some pics very soon (maybe if I can later today). This is to Niko, go ahead & buy the parts from Charlie, while I don't have some of the things Charlie sells, I do have his Detail Wire, Seatbelts & Braided Line, they are excellent & not expensive, I highly recommend them.
Romell R Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Knock out job Charlie love the attention to detail. great use of the pastel chalks too
vintagedragfan Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 wheels are awesome Charlie, could't have turned out any better!
Mooneyzs Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Charlie... beautiful work Bud!! Those wheels are killer and look great.
bytownshaker Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 Charlie, thanks for your update on the rim detailing, This build looks great!!!!
Pro Tech Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 Thamks guys, I finally got a little more done on this. The chassis is complete with engine and cockpit installed. I used one of the tanks as a water tank and scratcbuilt a pump. All the lines plumbed with my (Pro Tech) braid and fittings. Next, wheels and tires will be installed and onto some body work. Thanks for looking! Charlie Pro Tech
John Teresi Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Charlie......this is INCREDIBLE!!!!!.......the detail is AWESOME !!!!!.......those "Pro Tech" parts really make an engine look GREAT don`t they?
Dragracer Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 The chassis/engine came out looking great Charlie, can't wait to see the body done-up & mounted on the chassis.
MadKaw6 Posted June 4, 2012 Posted June 4, 2012 Nice work Charlie. Looks great so far. Can't wait to see it finished.
Pro Tech Posted June 4, 2012 Author Posted June 4, 2012 Thanks guys, I did manage to get the wheels/tires mounted. Now on to the body. Thanks for looking! Charlie Pro Tech
Pro Tech Posted June 25, 2012 Author Posted June 25, 2012 Thanks guys, well the body's done with the tin and windows installed, onto the decals........ Charlie Pro Tech
John Teresi Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Charlie.......that is a gorgeous paint job......WOW!!!!!!
W-409 Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 That paintjob looks impressive! Very smooth and very shiny, I can't wait to see this one finished.
Terry Sumner Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 This whole thing is coming out sweet! Too bad you don't make a good injector scoop yourself...I'm sure it would look way better than that stock kit hat. Man the front of that thing is grossly thick! But that's minor... Looking forward to seeing the decals on this body!!!
vintagedragfan Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 i have to agree here with every one, paint is gorgous Charlie! too bad it has decals , lol
GoatGuy Posted June 25, 2012 Posted June 25, 2012 Terrific work Charlie. The lighting in your photos really shows the gloss.
