Model Manufacturer (parts): AMT (ERTL) / Monogram Year: 1994 Make: Chevrolet Model: C1500 Edition: Custom Color: Metallic Green w/ Green Base Coat Engine: LT1 5.7L (350c.i.) V8, 275bhp Wheels and Tires: Goodyear GS-C P235/50ZR16 on Camaro Z28 aluminium rims Options: Chrome tie down rails, hood scoop, custom exhaust, Z28 Bucket Seats Further Information This model was created by me in one of my model bashing projects. For this model, I took the chassis and body from AMT's Chevrolet 1500 454SS model, AMT's 1995 Camaro Z28 Convertable model, and some other odds and ends from my "parts box", such as a left over hood scoop and manifolds from my '56 Bel-Air and pieces of the chrome rack from my Malibu to make the tie down rails. It was a lot of fun to build this model because I didn't have to worry about getting the placement right for any of the parts, and hey, no instructions! I recommend model bashing to any model fanatic, it releaves a lot of tension because you can just throw a bunch of parts together in any old order; it also gives you the chance to try new painting techniques. Since the pictures were taken I have add a six foot CB antennae to the rear bumper. Well, it's not actually six feet tall, it's 1/25th scale.
