Jaak Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) I of course mean the 1967-1969 Fire bird the first generation, if i am not mistaking Pontiac was using the body panel molds from the Camaro and only gave it minor changes, most to the front and back but the body shape was the same...and not like an Hillman Imp .. I actually remember a similar discussion with you asking a similar question, will have a look as i can remember i stashed some pics of the race variations somewhere 24Hr Daytona entry: 1969 24Hr Another pic of it I know you most likely have these but still Edited February 3, 2011 by Jaak Beentjes Quote THINGIEPHILE REBEL EXTRAORDINAIRE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick1776 Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hi Jaak, Yeah the Titus car is a good looking car/livery. Yep seen all of those pics.

first corner crash Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Hi Trev, Where were you last night for the committe meeting?? We took a vote and decided to ban the SCX Cuda Sorry Trev, dont take it personally. There are 8 liveries for the Javelin that I can think of and most of those are variations of red white blue and the two yellow ones. There is however a very left field "weird" livery for the Javelin but I cant say too much about that one. I think the Javelin will make a killer slotcar as its a big car much like the Cuda. I might be right off the mark here but Id be surprised if the Cuda was available before the end of the year. The Camaro Id hope would be soonish. When does Chineses new year celebrations start? Id be writing that month off. Hey Rick sorry i didn't make it to the meeting but i was racing slotcars. Hard to believe huh? I was also testing my NZPR can am in between heats. Interesting to see if anyone does do a javelin. Would make a great grid for a trans am enduro a camaro a mustang a cuda and a javelin. Theres a good race if they all get done. I will put up my hand to prep the Cuda and i promise to not call out "go the valiant". Edited February 3, 2011 by first corner crash Quote 4x national champion 6x national runner up.

Muscle Car Master Posted February 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 So..... any shots of at least a test mould yet? Waiting patiently to fly the Pioneer flag at local race track with a Z28! Quote Cheers, Tony. Classics in plastic -|- Old skool is cool -|- Driving my muscle car like a shooting star!

rick1776 Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 The second shots were done recently. If they were OK then I suspect its a matter of booking time for a production run. If the second shots still werent good enough then I suspect its back to the drawing board for some more re-tooling. Maybe Jules can fill us in with the state of play. You out there Jules??

manitouguy Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 i see it more as the 'candy apple red' all the teens seemed to choose back in the day for their custom street muscle very very nice isn't it! and also great to finally have a proper '69 charger (not the 500 fastback that most manufacturers chose to model) i think only eldon did a '69 back in the day - and a wee bit smaller than 1/32 ... and maybe one or two obscure companies with clear shell versions good show mr Jules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarKraft Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Ron, you're right. But Ember took a photo of her Bullitt Charger which somehow got a sparkly red reflection in the black paint which showed how good a metallic burgundy might come out. C'mon Jules, you know you want to. Quote Fairmont Park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pioneer Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 Recently found a supplier of some super groovy metallic colours. Hot Lips Red and Passion Wagon Purple are in there. I know Ember wants a purple Camaro. Hopefully, Rickileaks will have something for you soon. Jules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick1776 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 OK the 67/68Camaro test shots are finally out. Will come with 3 bonnet options, vents, smooth and reverse cowling. And 2 boot options, with and without filler cap. Apparently Cleveland already has the limited edition stealth unpaintd version. Loosgood to me. Will also be available in plain white kits.

Muscle Car Master Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 (edited) Looking good so far, hopefully it'll come with a front/rear spoiler. Looks like they gonna have removable hoods and bootlids? In anycase, I'll take the reverse cowl induction hood with fuel filler bootlid. Feel like a bottle of coke now for some reason (must be the 67 Camaro's shape!) Edited March 29, 2011 by Muscle Car Master Quote Cheers, Tony.

Ember Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I think given recent history of duplicate releases from other manufacturers (is that being diplomatic enough?) he's probably loath to put any of his future plans in print.

I wonder how many manufacturers would actually have a look at forums like Auslot to see what is being said about products and what people want ?
