AJ-Modelworks goes Pro Touring
Thought I'd have a go a some pro touring projects (although I don't know too much about it - I suppose like all other automotive styles there are no rules except the unwritten ones ! so I'll apologise now if I transgress any.Here's where I am so far:
Revell 69 Yenko Camaro

Smoothed the body by sanding off all the emblems etc - since I took the pic I've also sanded off the ridge on the hood for a smoother look. Rims are from the Aoshima Kunny's chaser with Revell Civic tyres.
Engine will be stock but I'll use the valvecovers and aircleaner from the Testors Smoother kit.
Revell 67 Chevelle

Rims are Kranze LX's with SAS Advan tyres - engine is from the AMT Wagonrod.
Revell 65 Mustang

Rims are Aoshima Lowenharts with Junction Scara Rims and SAS Advan tyres. Engine will be stock except for MCG Edelbrock dress up kit.
Just spraying the bodies up at the mo as we're blessed with a fine bank holiday - hopefully post pics later. I may swap the rims around between the Mustang & the Chevelle - I'll see which ones I prefer once they're painted up.
Thanks for looking
Andy

The polishing kit is going to see some heavy use next weekend

Great tuning.

Sometimes I wish it would be that easy and cheap to tune cars in real life

Well done.

Again, these cars are more like "whips" than "pro-tourers." I guess in modeling there are no real rules, but I have yet to see anything I'd really call pro-touring. They're all beautiful cars, but I just can't get into the ridiculously large wheels on old muscle cars look. Those are some fantastic paint jobs, though. In the Chevelle, is that a TPI engine? I'm not familiar with the AMT Wagonrod....

I'm totally jealous of your painting skills though.

According to the Wagon Rod instructions it's a Chevrolet LT5 375 hp DOHC with EFI
