1975 Chevrolet Camaro

Bud, I don't bother cutting out the "tree", but I suppose one could. Be REAL careful, though, clear styrene is really fragile, as evidenced by the already existing crack.

Oldsalty's suggestion about Future (now known as Pledge with Future Shine) is a good one. It probably won't eliminate the entire crack, but it will fill in the gaps and minimize it.

Hey Bud, Use Future floor polish. Get a glass container enough to fit the clear part or you can even cut them apart they will fit better anyway. Dip the part in and hold it on a angle so the Future runs to the corner that way you don't have a blob on the end.

OK for all you car guys out there. The windows....... when you put windows in, do you cut them so you don't see the " Tree " on the inside roof. You can see what I meen in the pics.

And there is a small crack on the bottom of the front window, how do I get rid of that?

Thanks again all

Bud

Dry fitting and cleaning up parts. Still waiting on some paint to get in.

I don't know how car models are these days but a 35 year old kit and not much with the wheel wells and the engine

Well I don't plan to display it with the hood off, so I am not going to be bothered with a lot of extra's in the engine.

Bud

It's going, cleaning up parts and waiting on some more paint to get in, I hope by Monday.

I should have some new pics up this week.

Bud

I can't wait to see this car finished!

Cool, thanks for the info. I am going to go with the Chevrolet Orange for the covers and engine.

Bud

If the valve covers on the engine represent the stamped steel ones that came on most Camaro V-8's then yes, it's supposed to be Chevrolet Orange.  If they represent the finned aluminum valve covers found on some of the up-level trim and equipment packages (Z28, RS), then they will be aluminum-colored. 

The transmission and bell housing will be aluminum-colored.

Well I got my 1st thing that ant right on this 35 year old kit. The tires are hard as a rock and the rims are not the ones I want to use.

Going to have to look on the net to see if I can find some others.
