69 Camaro Pro Tour-ish

While test fitting the interior, I realized there was no way in hell I'd fit the firewall, engine etc. and not chip the body paint. Since this was one of my better paintjobs, this one ended up being curbside. I had the modern Camaro wheels (I think 35th anniversary) and thought they might look nice on an old Camaro. Swapped some disc brakes from the Revell '05 Mustang and after some dremmeling and epoxying I think it turned out OK.







Tried out some gels on the flash:

I think it looks great. I can see why you did not want to chip that paint!
