    Those rally wheels from that AMT 69 Chevelle kit are one of my favorites rallys

    Nice kit. I've done two of them, and just ordered another, to do the custom version. 👍

      Right on! I had planned a Yenko long ago but did the Revell instead.

    a friend of mine has a real hugger orange 69 SS-396 aluminum headed 375hp standard car, quite a rare combo. Thanks for sharing your build...

    That 68/69 Revell kit is so nice. All those Revell special editions really. Nice build up of the old amt though. Looks awesome! And I like your friends dads build too. That’s a fun looking build. Thanks for sharing!

    I had a buddy in the 90's who had a light yellow 69 SS396 with a black vinyl top, bench seat, 4 speed on the tree and factory reverb. It went to the scrapyard after he dropped a valve one Saturday night.

      They were plentiful back then. I had a friend that was showing off his 70 Buick Skylark and was revving his motor. Till a rod came out the block!

    Nice build and I enjoyed your description of the differences between the '68 and '69 SS. I had a new Hugger orange '69 SS 396 with the 350 horse option. It's difficult to authenticate a "real" '69 SS but the Hugger Orange and Daytona Yellow colors were only available with the SS package so if the paint code indicates either and hasn't been altered, it is a true SS. I think that's the only way to confirm without a build sheet. You mentioned hood stripes which are popular with modern restorations but I don't recall ever seeing them while I own. I've been told it was a dealer option and not available from the factory but have never researched. Your video encourages me to get busy on a Revell kit picked up recently.

      Thank you. Did I say hood stripes? I know those are only on 70-72. 69 Yenko had them but not from Chevy. I missed that in editing.

      @@TheMuscleCarModeler -- Not sure if you did... I probably heard you mention the optional side stripes. I see a lot of '69s with hood stripes but was pretty sure they weren't an option... until '70 as you mention.

    Even though the Revell kit is far superior a nice version can still be built,i only wish that when Missing Link offered more correct taillights i would have bought some to use on the 69'convertible.

    • @TheMuscleCarModeler
      @TheMuscleCarModeler  Рік тому

      I bought one set and have them in the stash. May use them on the convertible.

      That I don’t remember. I think I airbrushed Testor’s Steel on them.
