Thanks Ian. Mate there was a stage when things were going so pear shaped that I started to countdown the seconds 'til I smashed it against the wall. I was doing the final assembly when 3 things broke and despite hours of successful test fitting several things just did not fit where and how they should have. Teeth were grinding, fists were clenched and anger was building (I'm sure we all know how that feels) and then I reminded myself that I didn't need to rush anything and just walked away for a couple of days. I came back to the work table and fixed one problem at a time and the next thing you know she's done. It taught me to be more patient and that things will always go wrong at some stage and because I don't work to deadlines, I don't need to rush.

CheersSS

Shawn, what a master piece/piece of art.
Beautiful piece of Australian Motoring History.

A fantastic model, really really beautiful.

What's left to say? What a fantastic job, certainly one of the best Camaros I've ever seen! I can see why it takes pride position in your collection. A masterpiece, top job.
