Cool project. I'll be watching.

Love these projects!! I've always hated the Prowler but Im liking this!

[vintagercr]

This is going to be fun to watch.

[LacrosseBoss]

I've seen this kit and always laughed because the Prowler was such a bad idea. Your plan looks pretty neat though. Can I assume you'll be ditching the trailer?

[customsrus]

looks better already Keep up the good work

[Len Woodruff]

Interesting idea, your bodywork is looking great.... I will be watching.

The Prowler was the most daring vehicle ANY motor car company has ever tried!

And I like what you're doing here!

Question: what kit provided the front side cove and what filler are you using?

[Chris White]

Didn't you here your phone ringing. It was Chysler, they need you to design there products.........

LOL

Question: what kit provided the front side cove and what filler are you using?

The side coves were created using the two halves from a Corvette Grand Sport hood I had in my parts bin, the rear quarter coves were from the tailights from the same Corvette body. The filler I am using is Bondo Pro Gold. (Great stuff, bonds amazing to plastic when sanded.)

[Len Woodruff]

Thanks Ken for the info.

[Sixx]

Wow!!! That's looking sweet!!!!

[Kennyboy]

Finally found the right wheels.......and started on the roll hoops

[jrherald420]

I like the rims, what did they come off of?

[DrKerry]

Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kennyboy]

Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Kerry

I like the rims, what did they come off of?

Finally found something usable on a 1/24 Maisto "All Stars" Die cast Camaro. Believe me it was an uphill battle to find the right size.

Ok, here is where I turn to you guys for some suggestions on paint colors.......been so worried about body work and such I haven't been able to rest on a color(s) yet. I have some HOK paint in stock here so that is a maybe (Kandy's include: Apple red, Pagan gold, Passion Purple Pearl, Tangerine, also have Planet Green Pearl.) Hmmmmmm....
