Mine was Lemans Blue with White stripes

They were not magnesium; those were special order for racing applications. The stock 1968 Camaro came with steel DF Rally Wheels 15"x6" painted argent silver with chromed trim ring and center cap. I don't have a part number on them anymore and some online part numbers are for the 15x7 in version. The DF wheel was oriented to the Z28 to allow offset for the front calipers.

And, amongst others, ....

As do I

I am not familiar with the Stranger Things series, but this is from the Revell AG site. Maybe enough for aficionados to make an educated guess.

Right. This is an 83 BMW 733 And this is a 633 for 1983

Here is their YouTube video on the announcements. It is 30 minutes and includes all categories, but he is speaking English (please make some allowances for it being a second language and some items harder to put in our vernacular). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFoRarDVUuQ

This is the first, and likely the last, Gasser model I am doing. The club has a theme for our March contest for Gassers, per NHRA pre-1973 rules (fortunately a member posted them). Drag Racers in general are not in my wheelhouse, as I normally do road racing or the occasional rally car. But, I had won the Gasser kit as a door prize, so decided to tackle it. The kit is not a new molding and has some "issues". Not the least of which is the poor representation of the Ford SOHC engine. So, I decided to make some corrections, including a new engine. Out of a variety of engine choices, I elected to use the Texas 3D Customs blown 409 engine. It is nicely detailed including an alternator with drive belt. Morgan Automotive Detail provided the wired distributor along with Model Car Garage looms. To use this engine I had to craft a new cross bar for the transmission and recess a section of the firewall for fit. I also had to put a dent/cleft in the upper part of the recess section to get the dashboard to fit. I am still finishing the engine detailing and getting ready to fit the chassis to the interior. I am adding some linkage for the carbs and fuel lines with block. A coil has been added to the firewall and I have a fuel pump with filter ready to install. For the body, I elected to use Tamiya TS-41 Coral Blue. This was done with the Shaker can. I applied the decals I wanted use, a combination of Slixx, STS, Gofer and Decals by Lucas. I then covered with Tamiya TS-13 Gloss Clear (again Shaker can). Wheels and tires came from AMT Parts Packs as I was not enamored with the kit offerings. Next steps will be finishing the engine detail, joining the chassis and interior, finishing the interior and final assembly. Here are some photos of the To-Date progress:

Street or Competition?

Classes for the show

I have no idea. Haven't seen him in ages. Been over a year I believe. Katy Osbourne seems to also be gone since the birth of her child. She did an auction or two and then Danielle Trotta popped in
