...there's a piece that literally makes your jaw drop. I have to pick mine up off the floor every time I look at this fine example of perfection.

I love GLs 2-piece wheel style. It makes their rims look incredibly deep and realistic since they're completely hollow behind the wheel slots.

I'm inclined to agree with you.

With storing hoards of 70-1/2 Camaros,from several dfferent companies,...even still, I had to pick this one up.
If GL keeps this up,I'm gonna have no problem weeding out the sour apples, when the time comes.

It really is beautiful. Man, do I want to see them do it in 1/24!

And what I like is that GL has done both the split bumper version and the full bumper version in the first series. I actually prefer the full bumper version on the 1:1 car so I was glad GL did one in 1/64th scale, as everyone else has done the split bumper version already.

Their colors just seem to pop. That GTO in orange does the same thing. Almost like a House of Kolors thing? I have a hard time thinking this is captured in such a small scale. Kudos to the whole program. That paint really has depth.

Schwinng, Thanks for the pic. :roll:

That car is beautiful, I wonder how hard it would be to make a set of mirrors for it?

I just got the yellow Camaro as my first GL. I need to add this one. I am very impressed and excited again about little cars!!

WOW, its not even a mopar and I Like those!
What I like is the Quality in the painted Trim, I always hate when I open a JL or HW and see the painted side marker light, Tampo, pin stripe off.

They look sweet. Wish i could find some around here. Might order a case online not sure who to order from though. Heard alot of good things about each online dealer.

I picked one of those Camaros up recently. I really like this color.

A few things I noticed. The raised white lettering tampos on the tires seem to have gotten smaller, giving the tires a more realistic look than previous versions :thumbsup:

Take a look at the rear spoiler. It doesn't wrap around the fender like my red GL '71 Camaro Z28. I do beleive this spoiler was an option for 1970, but not totally sure. If it was, this is a really cool variation and very nice little detail. Any of you Camaro experts have any input?

I noticed this too and was wondering about that myself. The pics of the set show this car with the wrap around spoiler I believe and I was surprised to see the spoiler this way.
