I like the panels on that silver 68 Camaro. Those took some time huh?
This is a PROTOform Trans Am. Beautiful body before you paint it. The colors and scheme were selected by a local racer friend. I think he's going to like it! The black numbers with silver outlines were cut from liquid mask. They show up, but aren't loud. I think its a good scheme.
I normally take pictures outdoors. The colors look better. But, its 6 below zero where I am. I'm too much of a weenie to do that today! So, these inside shots will have to do. I'll deliver the body tomorrow.

Quick question guys: which VTA bodies are the sturdiest?
The reason I ask, I ordered a Challenger body from Tower (my first body) and this thing is horribly thin, especially the nose. It's the flimsiest body I've ever had my hands on. Maybe I'm just spoiled by off-road bodies?

Yeah, I went back and forth on that. In the end I went for looks. It looked kinda silly when I put the extra nose on the car and it wasn't rusted. I faded it a bit but still just looked out of place.
