Ok everyone, got a little update for you. Got the chassis 99% finished, still have a bit of plumbing to do. Car will be Hugger orange with white stripes, so I painted the chassis to match. Painted the front of the chassis black, I used a few different metalizer paints on portions of the front and rear suspensions.I also used some carbon fiber decals on the tanks. I made the front steering posable with some brass rod. Added brake lines front and rear. So on with the pictures. Next up the interior. Do you guys think I should paint the interior the bland grays of today cars or should with go with something to match the orange?

I would do the interior with orange accent pieces... Maybe a white interior or grey.

this model is unbelievable, i love it great job so far cant wait for more

[Jeremy Jon]

Fantastic idea! Looks great, looking forward to seeing it completed!

[azers]

I suggest dark and light grays with orange accents. Or various shades of metallics with orange highlights to mimic the engine and frame details. By the way nice work so far.

[PappyD340]

I like it , I like it a lot!! can't wait to see the end result I know it's going to be awesome great job so far

[customsrus]

Interior is finished. I decided to go with light and medium tans with some carbon fiber thrown into the mix, also added some orange accents to the door panels and dash. Colors are Krylon Almond (light tan) and Khaki. I then painted everything with Krylon satin gloss.Made some seat belts out of ribbon and used photo-etch buckles. I also used flocking for carpet.

[customsrus]

Oh no I not finished yet. Also got some color on this build. Color is Testors Hugger Orange. I still need to put the stripes on. I will then clear coat, sand and polish this, I am hoping to get this finished in time for Heartland. Wish me luck. Thanks.

Oooh, love that hugger orange!

Looking forward to your finished assembly pics

[freakshow12]

That looks awesome! I really like the decision on tan interior vs grey. I am a big fan of tan

[goodguyinar416]

You got my attention! that is one sharp looking Cavelle or Chamero whichever! It is looking awesome, but the only thing I think I would have put the Camero headlights in it and used a different grill that does not say Chevelle? otherwise keep it going....
