I picked up all the parts to this at the NNL West show as this has been in my mind for a while. Luckily the revell/ gears contest gave me a great reason to bring my plan to life. It is a 69 camaro with a modern corvette chassis and running gear, sort of a cross between a pro touring car and a full on race car. It will have a full rollcage and scratchbuilt interior pan, however some of the kit pan will be used. Im trying to meet the 50% parts requirement and make it over the top so we will see what happens.

Body will be painted smoke pearl with one thick and one thin pearl green stripe going down the driver's site line, similar to the box art viper of revell's new kit.

Here is the corvette chassis after only a small amount of trimming. Surprizingly the wheel base of both kits is the same.

And how would it be complete without a corvette LS motor!
Thanks for looking and any suggestions are more than welcome.
