I have about 15 1:18 Camaros from Various Years and 40 Johnny Lightning Camaros in my collection.

Oh, and I have one 1:1 Scale 1998 SS Convertible in my Garage.

Picture please!

How disassemble-able are they usually? I would like to do some custom painting on one.

I think the GMP Camaro's are by far the best 1/18 Camaro models. I have all the variations of the '67, '68, and '69 Trans Am cars about 10. And all of the GMP 3RD Gen Trans AM cars from the late 90's about 6 . As well as all the variations of all the AutoArt 1/18 ALMS Vette's and Aston Martins, about 20. Plus all the 70's Trans Am Mustangs by Welly....about 10 variations.
To me its really important that the wheels are accurate on all my race versions that's why I like the AutoArt and the GMP models. They have primer versions of the '67 and '68 cars that are great for custom work but they are very hard to find.

I just sold over 100 cars 1/18 and 1/43....all German Touring Car {DTM} series models Opel, Audi, Mercedes, and BMW's. I needed to make room for more Corvette's and Camaro's and ALMS cars.

That's a great sig you have with the #13 Smokey Yunick style modern car !!
I'm looking forward to GM [or GMMG] doing 1 to 1 versions of the Penske cars and and the Smokey Yunick car. Maybe the Mo Carter car for Canada .

You know those special editions are bound to happen. It's part of the great racing history of the Camaro.

got my 1:18 scale silver Camaro concept die-cast model yesterday from DubCity! The doors, hood and trunk open, the wheels and the steering wheel works too! I was pretty excited, put it on the dinner table and played with it like a little kid and my gf was looking at me like I was an idiot.
