Deals Wheels Z/28

Here is my version of Revells Deals Wheels Camaro. The rear wheels and tires, the blower and the wheelie wheels are all from a Hot Wheels 1/18 scale diecast. I added an injector and scoop from Comp Resins in 1/16 scale, and the parachute is a 1/12 scale resin piece I had laying around. The front wheels and tires are from Revells 1/25 scale Firebird. The paint is Tamiya chrome yellow with pearl clear. I had a ton of fun with this kit even though it had some flash and was molded in an awful orange plastic. th kit wheels and tires are awful.
My goal here was to make the model look closer to the Deal drawing.

What a big enhancement compared to the base kit. Those wheels sure look many times better than OOB. Nice color and details!

I like the rubber band for the blower belt, looks great. If you can, trim it a bit width wise so that the edges do not raise and then it will sit more flush.

Pick out the latching mechanism on the chute with some brighter silver to make it stand out more (if you want).

What happened to the bumper on the right side up front?

Completely crazy and different, I like it!
