Kenny B Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Andre, Looks good black on black. I too have the same kit built about 11 years ago after the one I owned. I'll have to post it. They were a basic kit especially under the hood. Good job though brings back memories. Ken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrone Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) Clean build Andre... looks great.. Edited March 3, 2015 by tyrone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogger44 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Nice work Andre, that black sure looks good on it. The kit I'm building now I am planning on painting black, hope it comes out as nice as yours did. I had issues with the hood on mine, too. The air cleaner seemed to be the culprit, so I trimmed down the underside of the hood around where the air cleaner was making contact.

Hawk312 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Very nice work! As everyone said, very smooth black finish. What paint did you use? I am loving all these 2nd gen Camaros lately! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford guy Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Sweet build Andre, the paint looks so smooth. Very cool. This kit always had hood fit problems, but you built it up into a great looking car. My girlfriend back in the '80's had a 1:1 black '79 Z-28. It had wheels like this but black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scalper Posted March 5, 2015 Author Share Posted March 5, 2015 Thanks guys. About the paint. It was already painted when I got it. It had some scratches drip marks and bubble along the rear panel. I guess that's why who ever painted it never finished. But I fixed it the best I could. And gave it a good cleaning. My guess on the paint tamiya ?
