"Despite the flash and molding issue, it's a pretty good kit."
dragonhawk1066
I'm giving this one four stars, only because of the excessive flash and passenger wheel-well molding issue. Otherwise, it's a pretty good kit with only a few finicky fit issues. I did some kit-bashing on mine, using the small block from the AMT 1970 1/2 Z28 kit, which pretty much fit right in. The interior is nicely detailed and everything fits well there. The engine compartment parts fit well also, but you have to be very mindful of some of the parts when mounting the body over the interior/chassis assembly as it's a very tight squeeze especially up front. The front suspension is a good fit, although it does sit high as kitted, so some alterations are needed for proper ride height. The rear suspension is a decent fit also, and there are two differentials to choose from to give you a choice of ride height for the back end. The front valance was just a bit off on my kit and didn't sit completely flush with the front wheel-well, but I got it fairly close. The front spoiler was a little tricky as well, but it odes fit good and the grille fits right in the opening. The taillight panel fits right into the body and has slots that match up well with the tabs on the back of the chassis. The chrome tree is okay, but the Cragars look great, although they are tricky to remove from the sprue and trim down. The tires look great as well. I did not build mine as a B-M car and did not use the exhaust or decals so I can't comment on them. It does build up well with a little effort and looks like a great representation of a '70-'73 Camaro, and I do recommend this kit, just not to a fairly new builder.

"Pick your battles"
hillbillypitmaster
Kit came as the Round2 molded in green not white as pictured for the product. I've built a few of these kits over the years the white kits seem to have less flashing and flaws in the body. Plus white is much easier to paint over. The detail around the trunk emblem is horrible. If it was not for the fact I plan on using the supplied decals I would have been very disappointed. The chrome however supplied in the kit I received was much cleaner and nicer than previous kits I have purchased of this car. Overall I feel this will be a nice build for someone with experience. The extrusion marks and indent in the roof panel need some attention as does the trunk area.

 
"A lot of work but a great kit. Not for the faint at heart."

A lot of flashing to clean, and some warped fits that need clamped. Dark green molded color hard to cover as far as painting so be sure to primer first. Test fit everything, as there are major modifications that will be needed. Great kit and very fun to build. Definite challenge. Not for a novice builder.

 
"Baldwin Decals NOT included!"
Muscle Car Fan
Not a bad kit...I don't expect much from AMT, but not including the Baldwin Motion decals even though they are shown on the box is inescusable. I guess I'll have to pay the extra $10 and get them on eBay. Otherwise the tires and wheels are nice. The body is good too. Honestly can't comment on assembly yet...haven't got that far.
