Rain-X Camaro
My first motor-sport associated car, Hopefully not my last.
It's an older Revell kit that I scored for 10 bucks. Figured after My Celsior I'd stick more to box stock builds from now on. I have it around ~45% complete, Been workin on it for a couple days, It's definetly not as good as 99% of the the stuff in this forum. But that doesn't bother me. I'm building it with the skills that I have, which aren't much. I should have atleast a coat of primer on it tomarrow, along with the interior, (cockpit) part finished tomarrow. Then I'll start on the motor. Here's some pictures.. So far.

I'm building the Jack Baldwin version of this kit with the Hot Wheels livery. It's one of Revell's finer series of kits (started life as an IMSA GTO Mustang out of the Roush stables) and time has actually been pretty good to the tooling.
It's also still the best place to get a 4 speed Jerico transmission for all of you Pro Touring builders.

Re: Rain-X Camaro
That looks really good. In my younger years I got as far as painting the chassis and decalling the body (Directly over the yellow plastic....). If I could find another decal sheet of any kind I'd strip it and start over. I also have a Hot Wheels version untouched: Got them both and an AMT Ranger on a trip to Florida for like 40% off when this hobby shop in 'Old Town' was going out of business.
