Hey Eastrock, I just cleaned up my Camaro body and noticed that the rear corners of the hood when installed seemed to be curved upward, I bent mine back straight. You might want to check yours. Just a heads up.

Will have to check on that, Gil and have this noted  on the Camaro; final body coat done, paint still wet unable to wetsand for prepping the clear coat. still need to dry a few more days for the paint to cure.  Engine done and fix to the chassis, there is a fitting problem in which I decide to assemble the engine on the chassis. there's a bit trouble when assembling the engine separately just notice a problem with the shaft connecting to the engine.  Cheers!! |

apologies Bill on the very late reply... been busy with a local event!!! just came thru a needle hole, judging here are very strict when it comes to details, paint and assembly... even the chassis needed to be detailed. anyway here's a progress on the Camaro decals already done, prepping for clear. This is a pure OOB build no BMF or mod even the turn cignal decals have been use (looks like a toy)   Cheers!!! |

Coming out great, Eastrock. Looks like we may finish about the same time. Too bad we can't get a side by side picture of both when finished. Would look real cool.
