Well, these kits are really close because the real 1:1 cars are. They're both 427ci-powered 1969 Camaros. The major differences are : -decals -specific L88 hood on the BM -specific unsilenced air cleaner on the BM -Chevy Rally wheels on the BM, Altas alloy rims on the Yenko -specific rear spoiler on the BM -BM side exhausts Yet, I'd keep both kits, because you can build REALLY different cars. First, Yenkos can have a lot of different faces. Despite being available only in six colors (Olympic Gold, LeMans blue, Hugger orange, Daytona Yellow, Rally green, Fathom green), thay can feature white or black stripes and either stock Rally or Atlas wheels. Add the Day two classic Era accessories and you'll spend hours choosing your Yenko. Second, Mr Motion could build anything you ordered. Revell choose to duplicate a very famous BM Phase III Camaro, but in real 1969 life, you could choose the color, the interior, the rims, accessories, and a lot more details on your BM Camaro. Just think out of the box, as long as it feels Period-correct. For instance, my Yenko is planned to be gold w/ white interior and decals, and standard Rally wheels. While I'd build my BM Burgundy w/ red interior, red stripes, and Keystone classic mags. Not really the same. Revell did only the job partly. Only you can complete. This is the car Revell choose to duplicate : And here are other BMs :

There was also the 440HP 512M, with exposed headlights. The only you love to hate.

Is the newest release that different ? Mine is the red one on the box, with the white stripes that are not included. I had to kitbash a lot of parts to start something fair : -1977 Monaco chassis for the twin exhausts -1971 Charger engine, trans, dash -Keith Marks decals -Amt white-lettered tires -1968 Roadrunner/1969 GTX Mag 500 rims and engine bay I should consider having it primered soon.

Read the messages, you might understand.

Especially If you add this : with the addition of the 585PS GT-R and new roadster, the whole GT range is being upgraded. That's what the european car-configurator shows. So these wheels may be outdated even before the model is released.

Thanks guys.

Aside than wrong 14'' wheels for a Hemi, and an oval air cleaner, the kit is not that bad when built properly. Here's mine.

I need a couple of these Tran... er, Firebirds. It's just, where are the Bowling Ball wheels ? These Diamond Spoke (Cross-lace) rims aren't correct for 1982, and I've never seen them on the original box-art.

I agree. Enough Hemi/4-speeds in kits. A 440/Torqueflight is respectable enough and, so far, Revell offers them only in Darts.

They also offered : -1979 Pontiac Trans-Am 10th anniversary : Looks like a bigger 1:25. Some extra detailing (separated fuel tank, real front springs) and opening doors, but nothing more difficult than a 1:25. Except, and you shouldn't underestimate that, the body fit and finish. It will require a lot of sanding/putty to look great. At least proportions are good. And the siler 10th Anniversary are great. That kit started as a MPC, but has been sold with a AMT box art. -1981 Pontiac Turbo Trans-Am : Very similar to the 1979, except for Turbo motor and black tinted (toy-like) glass. MPC only, no AMT. -1978 Corvette 25th Anniversary. MPC later sold as AMT. Don't know much about. MPC also released a 1:16 1988 Corvette roadster (nice), 1982 Pontiac Trans-Am, 1984 Corvette.

The background of this video is just three cars (1966 Toro, 1970 GTO, 1974 Camaro) that have been kitted, but long not-reissued. Funny coïncidence... About the Pacers, does this mean we can swap parts to create 1977 sedans and 1978 wagons ?

This is great stuff !!! Both sizes of Blue Streaks offer endless possibilities. These custom turbine xheels are perfect for kitbashing 70's kits. I'll get a couple.

Hi You will find very nice 2-piece Kesley-Hayes wheels with Amt 1965 Buick Rivieras. For the tires, not yet. But maybe someone (amt, Fireball Modelworks) is reading...

Yup, Fireball Modelworks !

I want two of these : one built as a classic wagon, one with that Cruising Package !

European hits : 1980 Mercedes 500SL W107, 1975 Mercedes Grösser 600 Pullman W100, 1988 BMW 325i convertible E30, 1989 Peugeot 205 GTI 1.9. American glamour : 198X Cadillac limousine, 1977 Lincoln Mk V, 1971 Ford Pinto with Street/Strip options, 1973 Malibu SS, 1973 Cadillac Eldorado.

Great release, Jospeh. These wheels will duplicate the S&H movie Tomato. The TV cars had something closer to 14x6 upfront, but your set will be perfect for a bunch of Muscle Classics !

Well, a 1971 Riviera is still my #1 wish. As a 3-N-1 kit with Stock, Pro-touring and Lowrider options... Also a 1977-1990 Caprice, sedan and wagon. Now, a few Pontiacs. Easy to create duplicating a few existing toolings : 1970-73 Firebird Formula, 1976 Trans-Am and Formula, 1970 GTO, 1979 Trans-Am 400ci. Plus the hard way, no pain no gain : 1977 Can-Am, 1970 Grand-Prix, 1975 Grandville, 1973 GTO. What about Mopars ? 1966 Barracuda, 1971 Challenger, 1978 Magnum XE? 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, 1984 Jeep XJ Cherokee, 1983 Plymouth Voyager (yes, seriously, a Voyager).

From the Torino, I'd say a Clint Eastwood 1972 Grand Torino. Well, since the film won't attract kids and teenagers, let's try the same copied car in F&F 4 ?

Of course, I'd buy a couple of these ! First because my original is slightly bent. Second because this car gets more charm year after year.

I order from time to time. And everytime I have to slown down, or order $800 of different stuff. My computer is full of building-lists featuring thair T-426 tires, Spyder, Honeycomb or Cragar rims. I didn't make a $1500 order, because I definitely believe someone will go on this business. And will need my money.

B-N-L Resins. You'll love their stuff

Something close is in the Revell 1977 Monte-Carlo Lowrider kit.

Will buy !!!
