Very nice, very clean build. Kudos for removing the incorrect lower body trim strip. B) This model is so nice it would be worth the investment of some resin corrected taillights. Well done and model on! B)

Great looking build. I also like the color. It's fun to build a model of previously owned cars. I have also done a few. I'll bet you wish you had this Chevelle back in your garage.

Very well done. Speedway Decals makes a sheet for the 69 with decals for the headlights and tail lights. The tail lights also have the chrome surrounds. All you have to do is fill the existing tail lights and apply the decals. Here is a shot of them.

Interesting! Last one of these I built (a glue bomb rescue), I filled the taillights and then painted the red lenses. Mine look better than the kit parts (almost anything would be an improvement), but these look better than mine.B)

Nice job, great color. I had a 1:1 69 Malibu (wish I still had it), looking forward to Revells new tool 68 Chevelle. Rumor has it there might be a new tool 69 down the road also. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
