ShawnS Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Hi again. Here is the last model that I finished. AMT's 68 Camaro body with the chassis and most other parts from Revell's '69 Camaros.The hood is from the MPC/AMT 69 convertible It has MCG Photoetch, Keith Marks stripes and other decals from my spares box. The manifold and carbs were from Best Resin. It's the first time that I had detailed an engine to any extent. The carb linkages are made from brass rod and coke can and the fuel lines are made from evergreen, brass rod and old headphone wires. The belts are black electrical tape. I counted parts from 8 different Camaro kits so it's a true kit bash, It took me a couple of months to piece it all together and it's one of my favourites despite the grief it gave me at times. Thanks for looking. ShawnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a/gass Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 WOW! thats sweet great looking build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scale-Master Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Wow, that came out nice, dig the engine and overall look. One thing though, the shoulder harness's would not be anchored on the package shelf. Since there is no roll bar, you could use the anchor points for the back seat lap belts. (It's what I did one my real one...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chillyb1 Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 That's very cool. I'm not a fan of Camaros in general, and only this first generation appeals to me. This one in particular is outstanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62rebel Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 like your Mustang, this one is art. i love that induction setup... it was included in one of AMT's Camaros but i can't recall which one, and i'd love to have one on hand ... you need a Challenger and a Javelin, now.....
