This was a big help @ClayKemp how about some more tips & tricks on these Salvinos JR NextGen cars. Thanks

I LOVE the change to the assembly order, I'll go back and get pics for those new steps and if you have others that you see assemble better, it is too late for any more Chevys for this year, but let's incorporate them into the 2023 instructions! For those wondering why I didn't design the instructions this way, it was because I was doing it all digitally and no physical parts existed to assemble, besides, I'm not a builder like Clay and he knows work flows considerably better! Awesome work sir!

Wonderful to see support from the manufacturer. Clay is brilliant and the fact you sought him out says volumes about your commitment to models actually being built. I've heard nothing but great things about your kits which isn't true about previous North American kit makers. Congratulations on dealing with NASCAR over licensing, one of the most difficult aspects of producing plastic models. Bravo!

Absolutely outstanding my friend!! I still haven't jumped on my next gens yet. I'll be building my chassis "Kemp Style" for sure!!! LOL! Thanks for sharing buddy!!

The result is properly aligned and strong because that's how the real cars are built. Nobody welds bars around the sear!

Theae new cars are quite a departure from previous generations. I see the NAPA car in my near future. Thanks for the tips.

Congratulations on your channel, Clay. one of the hardest thing about losing Scale Auto was losing your wonderful articles. I m blessed to have found your channel! I'll be back!

Clay Kemp, you are one of my Go-To's for reference when im questioning myself on something these new kit releases are out.

Nice one, Clay. Super enjoyable watching someone with your skills to what you do.

I like how you use the chassis bottom plate/floor pan as a jig to keep all clip parts plum and square during build up.

Any detail work to the firewalls needs to be done prior to cagework. I added textured bmf to the front firewall in the engine bay, but the spider cage on the rear firewall prevented me from adding it there. I was able to glue a 3d-printed oil tank just inside the spider cage on the rear firewall and it turned out really nice.

Clay, thank you so much for the help. I was stuck on exactly where a couple stiffener bars were supposed to be located and you pulled me through. Thanks for the video 😎👍

@@ClayKemp I looked at your play list and videos as well, i only see the #75 Hartman build from the USAC Series as far as the Salvino line other than building the chassis and fixing the roof seam on the Ally car. No full builds. I really would like to see a start to finish if it is the Ally build or if you done the Next Gen Lajoie ride. These new kits Salvinos come out with looks to be a work of art but very highly detailed. What im confused about is the difference in what we run in Late Models vs these cup cars. Your putting in 2 fuel lines as well as most everyone. We only have one in our late model stock car.

Correct...I meant to go back and film that. But yes, I cut out the bar then you can fit everything in there. Then glue it back in place before the body goes on.

The one thing i will do different is build the interior before putting the cage top on the kit. Gives more room to work with. Just my thoughts on it. Great Job as always!

7:56 - If you are adding any detail to the rear firewall, such as heat shield insulation or adding an oil tank, do so before gluing the spider legs to the rear firewall.

Great timing seeing I have two of these arriving within the next week. Nice work Mr Kemp and I hope you will continue with the full car? How is everyone treating the mounting points in the chassis with the tabs going right through? I assume just paint it all black? Keep up the great work mate…

It should be easy enough to add some putty and sand it all smooth but those slots should make for very strong joins.

I'm doing the carbon fiber spray paint trick that was shown in the Model Cars 214 issue on this kit. I'll probably just brush paint the mounting tabs flat black once complete. I'm going to glue styrene strips inside the front and rear bumper that will grab and hold the pan in place like we used to do on the old Thunderbird kits.

Hi Clay great work as always, quick question. Who do you purchase your photo etched parts from? And how on your Blackbeard build how did you come up with the graphics for the decals?

What looks like extra thin glue is used. What brand do you use? Your method of building the chassis definitely looks easier! Great attention to detail.

Wow I've built 50 Nascar cars , never seen one of these

Clay, did you ever do a video showing the shifter linkage on the transmission tunnel?

Hi Clay I've always meant to ask you what kind of twist drills you use. Thx

can you paint with acrylics?

I just ordered the Daniel Suarez version. I have not done a model since I was a kid. What are the bare minimum tools I should buy? Nippers, sanding pads/files, and styrene glue? I saw someone on another video saying not to use super glue. I have a Xacto knife already. Thank you!

Will there be a part 2 where you build the rest of the Camaro or will you do a video showing how to build a hole next gen kit?

Not likely....I just did this one as a different method to build the chassis that seemed more logical to me.

I think Zona makes one, too, that's held in a bracket that fits an X-acto-type handle. Many modellers use the blade alone to cut panel lines.

Luckily your undertray was not warped. Any idea how to get a 1/2" warp out?

@ClayKemp

Жыл бұрын

If your chassis builds up straight. And your body is straight, once you glue it all together at the end it will force the undertray to twist back straight. That's what helped in my case on my first build anyway.

You can dip the undertray in hot water for a few seconds then take it out, place it on a flat surface, and use tools, books, etc. to hold it down while it cools. You could use a heat gun applied to a particular problem area but I'd be careful not to actually melt it.
