      i recently completed my camaro build and i thought some of you may enjoy it. i only do drag cars as they are my passion. at the moment i am in between real cars so, i am doing some models to quench the desire.&nbsp;<br><br> the camaro has a&nbsp; brass tube chassis, scratchbuilt front and rear suspensions and brakes, scratch built 1/8 scale outlaw 10.5 camaro 11.9" deck big block chevy, w/ olds symetrical port pro stock heads, split dominators and a five stage dry sump oil system. the bruno torque convertor drive sits in front of the lenco 3spd. again all scratch built 1/8 scale outlaw 10.5 camaro . the american pro series wheels are handmade as are the front and rear tires. credit is given to tim at TDR 1/8 scale outlaw 10.5 camaro for the 3d-printed wheel tubs and the mark williams center carrier for the rear. the '82 camaro body is from a monogram kit and robert bently for his killer rod ends and bolt hardware. the rest of this car is scratchbuilt, including the scoop, wing, headers and anything else i may have forgotten. here are some photos.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>hope some of you enjoy!

    Beautiful work as always,Dave. The realism is first rate all the way.

    thanks for asking dan. i'm in the process of getting the body made for a 1:8 scale '69 camaro pro mod. TDR 1/8 scale outlaw 10.5 camaro is working with me on this. if all goes well. it may be made available and in other scales as well. my car will be a copy of mike hill's pro mod camaro. the real car feature a 5.2" bore space gene fulton 833 cubic inch 4 stage nitrous motor, a lenco 2 speed w/ a bruno torque convertor drive, 9" full floating rear, lamb struts and penske shocks, titanium firewall and lots of carbon fiber. here's a pic of the car.



    while i'm waiting for all of my ducks to line up on this project. i will be finishing the top alcohol 1/8 scale outlaw 10.5 camaro dragster i started earlier.
