smhardesty Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 Nicely done. That Yenko is sweet! Never owned a real Yenko, but had a Yenko motor in a '69 Chevelle I raced back in the day.
Geno Posted December 19, 2017 Author Posted December 19, 2017 Thank you all, I do appreciate the kind words. I pray a Merry CHRISTmas for each of you. Geno.
StevenGuthmiller Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 Nice group Geno! I especially like the '66. Is the Yenko a diecast? Something is giving me that impression. Possibly the door gaps? Steve
Hmann68 Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 Great looking group Geno! Love the color of the Chevelle!

The Firebird is a cheapie Welly model stripped and redone as well. This is DM's, which goes for big bucks on the secondary market, I have about $70 in mine including the price of the diecast. And mine. Edited December 20, 2017 by Geno

espo Posted December 20, 2017 Posted December 20, 2017 Beautiful builds. I was wondering about the '66 SS396, it looks like it may be one of the early Monogram kits. I think the Camaro Spoiler on the Firebird looks better than what Pontiac had. The Yenko Die Cast turned out great.

Yes Dave, you are correct, I wanted a 1/24 '66 to add in with my 1/24 diecast collection. I used a Monogram '64 GTO chassis, attached the flip front to the body, filled the hood section with one from a Lindberg kit, did all the appropriate filling and sanding etc. It was a bear but it worked out alright. Again, thank you all. Geno.
Michael in Illinois Posted December 21, 2017 Posted December 21, 2017 Love the color on the chevelle, All three are way cool.
