hello,
thanks for your replies,for the wheels they will change by coolest and more beautiful rims but pics later here i post the last pics of my first version of the camaro,
but even if i love cars which doesnt show what they hide under their hood with sun burnt paint or rust i think it would be a pity to leave it in this state so i decided to turn it on beautiful show car,
and i have the opportunity to use some machines(lathes,good qulity paint)for one month evey day before 9a:m, between 12a:m to 2 p:m and after 7p:m,so i spent a lot of time to made some good stuff,
pics of the second version very soon,
(hiroboy,it was me who contact you about some bolts and nuts problems but i resolved them,thanks again)and thanks again,for the replies,

Yeah man, get you some nice classic five spokes, and save those wheels for if they ever come out with a 1:12 Escalade.

ok rims don't look god on it...
some pics of th details of the new version:
front brake system:

rear brake system:

wide low profile tires:

new wheels and new paint:
one evening when i was at home i decided to cut off the roof because the previous owner had broken the front part so if i wanted to paint it again it would be a problem so i cut it off(after searching a lot of pic to see if it might be possible to have a convertible based on "normal" body)
paint need polishing and some accessories,
taht's it for tonight,
hopping your replies,
