JamesW Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 I'll be building this in memory of a friend of mine. When complete it will go into a case and be given to his wife. Jacob passed away 10/21/12 at 28 years of age. He was a great friend and coworker and will be truly missed. The kit: The plan: Need to find some suitable wheels for it.

JamesW Posted October 28, 2012 Author Posted October 28, 2012 Thanks Bryan. I'm not able to help her out financially, so I figured I would build the car that he had always wanted.

relaxednoma Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Very cool what your doing for sure! That's a killer 1:1 camaro he had. I believe them to be Bonspeed Quicksilvers maybe?
slusher Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Very kind of you to build a model and give it to his wife...
JamesW Posted October 29, 2012 Author Posted October 29, 2012 im gettin ready to start the same kit when i get my truck finnished wich will hopfuly be tonight or tomaro. im going pro touring also maybe we can swap ideas good luck onur build ill be watching I originally bought this one to do Pro Touring for a club build, but thought this would be more appropriate. Very cool what your doing for sure! That's a killer 1:1 camaro he had. I believe them to be Bonspeed Quicksilvers maybe? He didn't own that car, just a pic I found online. He always wanted a Camaro (any year) This is the only Camaro I have except a 2010, so I figured I'd build it in memeory of him.
JamesW Posted October 30, 2012 Author Posted October 30, 2012 Instead of doin a gloss, I'm thinkin satin black.
