Chevy Camaro Z28 1970 1/2

I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this kit! interior detail was above average for AMT, although I found the rims included very disappointing=the slots on the wheels were mostly flashed over and they were molded in neon orange as was the rest of the kit! have plenty of paint on hand as it takes several coats to put out the NEON! I ended up finding a set of US Mags that looked very similar to the stock Z28's I was also unhappy with the lack of chrome plated parts Grille, Bumpers and shifter are it. the headlight/turn signal trim on the body must be painted but hey so does the window trim on every kit unless you use foil. I found this kit includes a stock height rear axle as well as a raised version that I really liked! All in all a nice offering from AMT/Round 2

Overall a good kit. Need to be ready to clean a lot of flashing, and clamp a lot of parts due to warping. Be sure to primer every thing, the orange molded color is hard to cover if you don't. Hardly any chrome parts. Decals very brittle after application. Definitely a time consumer and challenging.

I really like these kits, I am building a series of the 1970 Camaros. The parts fit well and present no assembly problems. the only problem with the kit is that the orange plastic is very hard to paint over. The orange tends to bleed thru the paint. You must spray these cars with a good coat of primer before painting. On the other hand, the orange polishes out nicely if you don't want to paint the car.
