Converting Newly Tooled Revell `67 Camaro Into A `68 Camaro

[69NovaYenko]

I was recently engaged in a casual conversation about converting the newly tooled Revell `67 Camaro into a `68 Camaro with a fellow forum member and they suggested that I confer with others on the nuances between the two first generation Camaro`s.  Beyond deleting the driver/passenger door vent windows and adding side marker lights due to a `68 federal motor vehicle mandate the exteriors were pretty much the same. I`m also aware that the rear shocks on the `68 were staggered to reduce wheel hop under hard acceleration. Are there any other notable differences that I`m over looking?

The '68 also had a more pointed grille and divided taillights. The front running lights (on non-RS models) were also changed from circular to oval.
With the Astro Ventilation that allowed the omission of the vent windows came a revised dashboard containing - well - air vents.
The seat pattern was also changed.

If you want a '68, you're better off starting with the AMT kit due to the badly shaped front and rear ends of the Revell body. The AMT body needs a couple minor fixes to correct the shape, but these are easily accomplished. I have a tutorial down in that section on how to do it.

And of course the AMT will have an accurate '68 interior.

Thanks one and all for the insight.
