1/12th Scale 1969 Camaro Build

[2165 Turbo Rail]

DAMN IT!... it would be bad ass to have one of the GTO but I'm not gonna lie... I wouldn't pay more then 500 for one... I know its not near what you would ask probably but still

how about a cake that looks like the GTO

[black2002ls]

I wish I had the time to work on models. My cake business takes up every bit of spare time I have right now. that 1/12th. I would never get out of it the $$ and time I have invested. Once its done, if it ever gets that far, I don't think I would even consider an offer that isn't north of $2500

[2165 Turbo Rail]

damn that's bad ass....

what would you charge me to make a detailed model of the GTO? LS1 Turbo and all?

Subscribed.

Damn good work!


Now how much would one of these sell for?

[SMKR]

quite the talent man, great job.

[black2002ls]

No. I haven't had the time, space, or money to progress much farther. Its pretty much to the point where wheels are needed to get all of the suspension taken care of. Its sitting in storage until a time when I can give it the attention it deserves

Any updates?

I've found someone who machines wheels in 1/24 and 1/16th who said he could machine the wheels for me. $35 each, after a $125 set-up fee for the CNC programming. I'm currently looking for someone who might want to do this as a side project and make a little money. I can send the requirements for the program to anyone who might be interested.

Dammit, I saw you post, and thought we'd get an update. $265 for wheels on a model is damn steep. Not that it's not gonna be a nice car when you're done, but damn.

Styrene, aluminum and brass tubing, and some machined aluminum bits here and there

Wow! Nice!

What material are you using for the custom stuff?

[ELD3782]

That looks like ALOT of detailed work. Wow.

[Vertnut]

Damn! It would work out better for me to just go buy a real one! Pretty damn impressive!

[black2002ls]

Thanks! hopefully the wheels come together this time around. I also found out today that Revell is releasing a 1/12th scale 2010 GT500. Which means, I have a source for some modern parts for my 1/12th scale 65 mustang I'm working on too. Its not scheduled to be released until september. I'll have a pre-order for 2 or 3 of them for sure!

That's bigger than I thought in the original pics. That thing will be bad ass when done, nice work man.
