          Awesome BUILD...I'd love to have one of these bad boys. I've been eyeballing these 1/6 diecast motors, and wishing someone would build a T/F hull....

            I have spent about 20 hours looking threw pictures trying to find a good shot of the bottom of the sponson. Bullet Fiberglass built my friends Tallon 38 If I must I will call him to get a picture But i did not want to bother him. I was hoping a bright friend had what I wanted with out the stress of another 20 hours.

              Thank you, I wanted to work on it today but a good friend needed help on a 1971 Camero 1/4 pannel today, we have about 2 more hours of work to get it to the fitting stage. Oh well there will be other days. Thanks for the cudos, I can not wait either!

                Within the Week, matey.

                          Very nice Randy, other than "69" that's my fav Camaro, is it a split bumper car? Anything newer than "73" is No Bueno!!

                            Frank is building the 71 for his 16 year old son and wants to have the larger stock bumper for safety. Frank put a newer drive train in the car efi and all. It has a Dakota digital dash, new 8.5 stronger rear end. 4L60E trans and a Vortec 350 with a older tunnel-port EFI.
                            Yes the "69" Camero with the RS package is one of my favorites too.

                              How did the repop panel fit. My buddy Gary built a car for Von Gittin Drift Car Champ. It was a dynacor 1969 Mustang . I must say that was most jacked up body ever >>new repop<< body right out of the shipping crate . Nothing fit fenders doors hood rear deck stock tail light housing wouldn't even bolt up. Looked awesome once done but before that what a pile before .

                                It was AMD. I suggested the full panel but my friend oped for the short/cheaper panel. we did try to use it but the short panel or 1/2 panel was to long a pos. We bought the full AMD panel and it was excellent.

                                "A up date" the seams for the trunk lid turned out to be 1/2 of an inch on the drivers side and 1/8 passenger side. On the 72 T top Camero we have in same garage the trunk seams are 3/16 on both sides. we will ajust the trunk lid on the 71 to be centered but much wider.
