Camaro IROC


Working on some new vehicle plans for 2013 today and planning for some new featured vehicle skus. Hoping to include some new castings from the 80s and 90s and since I was stripping my IROC for paint this week, I thought I would shoot and measure the entire car in hopes to replace casting #484. This casting is planned for JL2.0 R13, which will be a Beat the Heat release. Other castings I am looking to redo are the '70s Challenger, and C4 Corvette. Of course, we'll add new castings to the mix but want to get to a lower price point and some of the olders castings are too expensive. Retooling them gets us a more accurate casting as well as a lower price.

Happy Holidays!

  2. I would Love to see a 1974 Camaro done by JL. The amount of detail you do is awesome. I own a 74 and would be happy to have the smallest version of my car.I also don't think anyone has ever done one. At least none that I have found.

    1. Casting #539 is the closest I can find. Just change the back window and it's a 1974. Could this be considered an inexpensive retool ? Sure wish you guy's would make it.'If you build it I will BUY."
