Re: SCCA Camaro Trans Am Set

And now the Sunoco car is finished. For some reason the body fit quite a bit better over the chassis than the Rain-X car did even though they are the same exact parts. I did the same adjustments to the dash on this as the last one too, but the Rain-X body just didn't fit without magnets to pull the sides in and down; I did not need them on the Sunoco car.

How long does it take for it to be completely finished?

If I only built the Sunoco car and didn't have to go to work, I could do it in about one month.

Re: SCCA Camaro Trans Am Set

Last but not least, the Hot Wheels car is finished. It, like the Sunoco car, did not need the magnet treatment to get the body to fit over the chassis, just the trimming of the dash.

Re: SCCA Camaro Trans Am Set

Here's all three. If I build another one of these kits it will be a curbside. I'm glad I did the full interior on these, but they are a lot easier to build as curbsides and the interior detail is just OK.
