Re: AMT 2017 Camaro "Fifty"-Dash Complete-11/18

Door panels are done. One thing to note: The casual eye won't see it but .......the R/H door panel has the master switches for the windows and door locks. It would pass for a R/H drive car in part. lol

Painting the inlay areas was a bit tricky but managed to get it done. Trim work and door handles were brought out using Vallejo Metal Colors Dark Aluminum for lack of anything better to paint them with. I also added the "Bose" logos on the speaker grilles.

Ok, Joe…. Who’s Camaro did you strip off the dash and door panels from? :giggles: They look absolutely gorgeous!

Gorgeous work on the dash and panels Joe. Exceptional work on painting the door panels. The Bose stickers are a sweet touch. It's all some real dandy work my friend.

Thanks fellas!! I managed to get a mock up done. This interior is far from being completed as I still have to

1. Detail paint the console
2. Paint and install the shifter
3. Paint, detail and install the steering column and steering wheel.
4. Clean up the seat color tone borders to make everything a little cleaner & sharper and blend the base interior and seats to give a uniform coverage/ luster to it all.
5. Throw a set of floor mats and a couple of added items in the interior

Here are a couple of progress shots to show that this build is still in motion.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the interior is now finished!!! The rough edges between the borders of the two tone seats is ALOT less noticeable in real life and is more the camera picking these up. I decided to go with decals from the Foose FD-100 kit for the light gray portion of the seats which resulted in a cleaner demarkation line than I could've done with paint. Masking on these irregular surfaces to achieve the same effect would've been dang near impossible. This interior was almost as difficult as the '67 Mustang interior that I just got through with a few months ago. LOTS of masking and LOTS of different shades of black with the details being picked out.

Now..............moving on to the car body.
