I'm asking about the black 69' Camaro, in the bottom-right corner. I don't know if its custom or not but either way its pretty bad ass.

...I really should have added the picture the first time...

It could be that old terrible Monogram Camaro, from 30+ years ago..... The body proportions are a "bit" off, "bad ass" is probably a good way to describe it..... :wub:B) Looks good in the pic, in black. It's been reissued a number of times over the years, Street Machine, "Rampage" drag car and a few others. If you want a nice Camaro, look for Revell's Z/28, Yenko, and Baldwin Motion versions, they are the same basically, just different versions.

Hey man cool it, will ya! I'm not here to put you or your models down, I merely made a general remark about a specific kit. Which happens to be a poor representation of a '69 Camaro. I've built it too, when it came out in 1977. It was a box stock buildup, for the swedish importer of Monogram kits. At the time I guess I thought it looked ok, but if you compare it to the later Revell '69 Camaros, you'll see the diffference.... :)

Well I'm Australian, and I also think the old Monogram Camaro is off. And like Hans, I've built my share of them too. But since Revell brought out their 1/25 kits, the Monogram one is redundant

What's wrong with it?

The A-pillars aren't parallel from one side to the other. Oops!

The body is sort of "anti-sectioned", like someone added a two or three scale inch slice through the fenders and doors. Look at a real one and you'll see what I mean.

The rest of it's OK, but those faults spoiled it for me. But I still built three of them back when they were the only Camaro available.

BTW, I like the red model in the photo. Good work!
