Revell 1969 ZL1 Camaro home grown

[RDean58]

I never got the "official" Revell kit of the ZR1 because the only difference was the hubcaps and steel wheels. Since I have quite a few of the 69 Novas I decided to take the tires/wheels and caps from one of those, the big block engine from the Revell 65 Impala SS kit and make my own ZL1. It will be painted Daytona Yellow.

I found some smaller diameter tires that fit the wheel wells better but will still use those rims.

That will be a cool one Robert, good luck with the build.

My wife, nephew and his wife, and I are jetting off to Iceland April 1st, so it may be a while before I get back to this one.

No Problem Robert. We'll be here to see this beauty when you finished it. ?

I got some color on this one, unfortunately I grabbed the wrong paint and it's shot with Testors' Chrysler Daytona yellow. Oh well. Testors' wet look clear was used as a final coat.

Thanks for looking all comments welcomed.

Wow, that is bright….but I like it!? It will look really great once the trim is done.?

Liking the strong yellow, a no-nonsense muscle car color!

Run with it! Looks like it came out smooth. Don't tempt fate trying to change the color.
