|
|
David Pearson's short track ASA Camaro.......Started with a Revell #17 Superflo ASA Camaro chassis with several modifications, added front and rear bumper bars and lengthened the chassis 1/4"and built the cold air box behind the radiator so it could stand up straight. Body is from the AMT 70-1/2 Baldwin Motion kit.....replaced pretty much everything from just in front of the firewall, built the front fenders, lowered the roof and replaced the A-posts. Also opened the trunk and re flared the sides and rear quarter panels, they were rolled in way more than the chassis would allow for a good fit and look I wanted. Resin nose and lower bumper with a few changes. Tamiya pure white, satin black and Italian red along with Testors Extreme Lacquer Icy Blue for the roof. The hauler just behind the photo of the real car is on the workbench now. Thanks for looking

James, this is spectacular in so many ways.
The complexity of the body alterations, gorgeous detailing and impeccable fit and finish. Wow! _________________ "When you arrive at a fork in the road, take it" - Yogi Berra |

I also see moving the door number forward on the side is nothing new. |

That is some of the best scratch building I’ve seen. Awesome looking race car.
Could you offer some more detail on how/where you lengthened that chassis? |
