69 SS396 Convertible Progress Pics

Pics only I have been working on this one for several weeks, most of the time was spent waiting for the paint I ordered at work. I used 2003 Corvette Yellow Tint WA423G 79U. I think It turned out pretty good. 3 Coats of primer and 7 coats of paint. I will be using the Bare Metal foil for the trim on this one.

So far it is going pretty smoothly.

Ok here are the pics hope you like them.

love the paint job! but i cant say the same for the whole car cuase its a muscle car

but i love the paint

absolutely beautiful. Glad to see that your last attempt (that you thought of as unsuccessful) didn't discourage you from trying again. I can't understand how you get that grill detailed like you do. I didn't even try, for fear of messing it up. The paint is beautiful. The only thing I'm not sure about is the gray used for the engine. Great work so far though :)

This thread really needs more muscle car builders. This one is looking great. Can't wait to see it finished.

The grey was supposed to look like the block was polished, ocassionaly people will polish their engine blocks as opposed to painting them(in the real world). i wanted to try it but could never get the paint mix quite right though. It does look a little brighter with some better lighting.
Thanks for all of the comments though:D

Looks great! Love to see someone making alot of Camaro kits. Supercar_Man is right though, we need more people building them on here.

Just tell them it's a ZL1 engine, all aluminum!!
Love them yellow Camaros, yours is looking awesome!!

Pretty Cool~
