1985 Chevy Camaro Z28 L69 5.0 V8 1/24 Scale Model Kit Build How To Assemble Paint Decal
Chevrolet introduced the 1967 Camaro to challenge Ford’s incredibly popular Mustang. The original Z/28 debuted that same year as the street version of the race-prepared Camaros that competed in the SCCA’s Trans-Am race series. Camaro Z/28s went on to win the Trans-Am manufacturer’s championship in 1968 and ’69, and this on-track success helped cement the Z/28’s performance reputation. The third- generation Camaro debuted for 1982 with racy styling and a new hatchback body style. Chevy updated the Z28’s exterior appearance for 1985, and highlights included a new front fascia, a revised hood with simulated louvers, and fresh taillights. Your Revell kit of the ’85 Z28 includes these details along with the “L69” 5.0-liter High Output V-8 engine backed by a 5-speed manual transmission. The 1/24-scale model also features the flashy L/S Conteur interior with decals that allow it to be painted in any of the three colors offered by the factory. In addition, the all-new decal sheet provides the Z28’s new-for-1985 exterior graphics in five different color schemes
Features
Complete Z28 body features including spoiler and hood detail
5.0 liter V-8 engine with cold air supply plus full interior and suspension detail
Factory stock stripe package including 5 color schemes
L/S Conteur seat package
The Chevrolet Camaro is a mid-size[1][2] American automobile manufactured by Chevrolet, classified as a pony car.[3][4][5][6] It first went on sale on September 29, 1966, for the 1967 model year and was designed to compete with the Ford Mustang. The Camaro shared its platform and major components with the Firebird, produced by General Motors' Pontiac division that was also introduced for 1967.
Four distinct generations of the Camaro were developed before production ended in 2002. The nameplate was revived on a concept car that evolved into the fifth-generation Camaro; production started on March 16, 2009.
The third-generation Camaro was produced from 1981 (for the 1982 model year) until 1992. These were the first Camaros to offer modern fuel injection, Turbo-Hydramatic 700R4 four-speed automatic transmissions, five-speed manual transmissions, 14,15- or 16-inch wheels, a standard OHV 4-cylinder engine,[14] and hatchback bodies. The cars were nearly 500 pounds (227 kg) lighter than the second generation model.
The IROC-Z was introduced in 1985 and continued through 1990. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Regulations required a CHMSL (Center High Mounted Stop Lamp) starting with the 1986 model year. For 1986, the new brake light was located on the exterior of the upper center area of the back hatch glass. Additionally, the 2.5 L Iron Duke pushrod 4-cylinder engine was dropped, and all base models now came with the 2.8 L V6 (OHV). For 1987 and later, the CHMSL was either mounted inside the upper hatch glass or integrated into a rear spoiler (if equipped). In 1985, the 305 cu in (5.0 L) small block V8 was available with indirect injection called "tuned port injection" (TPI). In 1987 the L98 350 cu in (5.7 L) V8 engine became a regular option on the IROC-Z, paired with an automatic transmission only. The convertible body style returned in 1987 (absent since 1969) and all came with a special "20th Anniversary Commemorative Edition" leather map pocket. 1992 offered a "25th Anniversary Heritage Package" that included stripes and a unique spoiler plaque. Beginning in 1988, the 1LE performance package was introduced, optional on street models, and for showroom stock racing in the U.S. and Canada. The B4C, or "police" package, was made available beginning in 1991. This created a Z28 in more subtle RS styling.
This is at least the fourth revision of this kit. The first one came out in 1987 and I ordered six to build a bunch of different color combinations. Fast forward to the last revision (before this one) was 2008. With all the releases the goal was to build every color combination offered in 1985-'86 and some 1987 Z28's. All total I have built about 25 of them! Now Revell has come out with different color striping options! The previous releases only came with the gold striping (code 53A). I have pre ordered 5 kits from my local hobby shop to finish my fleet. I love the interior decals for the L/S conteur seat option, codes 19D for the black, code 62D for the tan, and 72D for the red. The air cleaner decal is a nice touch too. The red striping appears to be the correct code 77A, and I cannot wait to get my hands on one of these new kits and build my favorite color combination. A black '85 Z28 with the red L/S conteur and the red striping! Sorry for the long response but my OCD is off the chart with these third gen Camaros. Great video!
Just ordered my kit. I'm gonna paint mine black and gold to resemble the '88 Camaro I had in the '90s.
I once had a summer job helping a Magician - just setting up props, turning on lights and smoke adding sound effects - never on stage. Problem is, I no longer am impressed by magicians as I now know what is happening in the background. But watching you build these kits, exposing all your tricks on screen and I'm STILL amazed at the transformation from box of pieces to a realistic model by end of video. Thanks for returning the magic.
Another great review
Love the tire tree joke 😂😂😂
Incredibly well done my dude. Got me one of these that awaits being assembled this winter. Figured I'd try to make it as identical to my Iroc-Z as possible. Never made a model-car before so I'm kinda excited (and anxious) about how it'll turn out. There's alot of good tips here!
The painting job never fails to impress me. This is the cleanest kit I've ever known. Thanks to your talents and skills, it turned out magnificiently and gorgeously.
Wow, thank you!
I love your humor
awesome job as usual! i'd love it if my boyfriend picked me up in one of these with RATT blasting on the radio.
So glad the Z is back out, have been looking forward to this kit for a while! 👍🙂
I have to say, for a kit with so few parts and minimal gluing, it's remarkably detailed.
I really enjoyed watching this build. Excellent detail on this Camaro Z28. Loved the color choice!
Glad this one has made a return , I ordered mine. I had a 84 Z28 as my first car.
Cool stuff always 😎
Looks like a former snap-fit kit. Revell like to repackage those and not market it as such. The Peterbilt, Kenworth and the GMC Tow Truck are snap kits but not marked as such. Not a complaint, as each are amazing kits. I’m definitely adding this one to the collection. Beautiful build Chris.
It was a snap kit still a pretty cool kit
My complaint comes when the sticker price is the same or more than a full build glue kit.
I am complaining too....there construction principles with certain things have gone straite into the garbage can since the German takeover of revell...a dishonest vibe as well
Probably my favorite generation of Camaro since I'm an '80s kid - glad to see this kit available, might need to pick up one because like the Revel Firebird I built recently, it's relatively simple to put together but comes out looking great and not toy-like in the end.
My college roommate had a Z-28 like this.
I think I’m going to get this kit and do it as tribute to wife’s first car: 82 Z-28 black and gold.
I remember seeing these at the mall cruising on Friday nights blaring Def Leppard or Ratt when I was in middle school. Great build.
Nice to see a Fox body good job 😊
Note: 3rd gen '82-'92 Camaro's and Firebird's the under hood fender wells, firewall, and radiator support structure, were usually body color, but like you always say and I agree with, "build your models your way"...just for future reference, no harm intended. I look forward to your build videos, and this one was no exception. I'll be added this kit to my collection, and eventhough the parts count is very low, the kit looks accurate...and that's what ultimately important to me. Nice job!!
True, its body color. I have an unrestored 85 Z28.
I have to get in my sparepartsarea and turn this into a IROC.
When i grew up in the eighties,i saw very less of this cars here in Germany;maybe 9 or 10 in all those years.You guys in the US had it so much better. Lol.
A NEW PAINT BOOTH!!!!
I enjoyed your genuine enthusiasm. The drill for tire wear and markers for trim are both ingenious: I will give them a try on my own build of this kit in dark green and light grey two tone. Cheers
Awesome, thank you!
I look at this beauty with its long hood, short rear deck & angular design. And then shed a tear as I think of where cars are heading today; fugly jellybeans with sensory dull electric motors. Anyway, nice build!
Modeling- you do what you want and enjoy!
Nice build! The only thing that looks strange is the back glass needs dark tint or louvers.
I much rather them let us assemble the engine. That's just me though. But you Chris, made that bad boy look sweet with the detail and paint job. Good job bud.
Спасибо за выпуск! Молодец!!!!!!!!!
Real nice mate👍
I love that you painted it in Washington Redskins colors 😂
I like the red interior - really all goes together well.
Nicely done Chris.
Very cool! Nice detail for the low parts count. The suspension and the air cleaner detail were super spot on!
It looks great!! Great color combination. Keep up the great work!!!! Have a nice day.
Very nice build on the Z-28
Mark Softer is probably the best solution out there and Tamiya's solution is practically the same product
only thing I missed the tv 80s commical heartbeat of America that's today, Chevrolet
You made me chuckle. A buddy of mine in highschool had a lt1 swapped s10 with those iroc z wheels on it
Just a thought, but to keep a paint booth clean tape newspaper fliers in it. Also on the rotating plate.
Wow, nice!
One of my most favorites of the different styles of the Camero.
Looks great with the gold and red. Hoping to pick this one up soon.
Great looking kit. Nice choice with the red 👍
Looks great Chris a nice easy build 👍👍
Funny thing is, I bought a blue and silver IROC new in 86. It was a left over. Loved it. Not the fastest, but definitely a head Turner. I'll buy this
I have built this kit. Couple years ago. Got it on eBay. Turns out really nice and gives you a nice miniature replica. I'll probably buy it again. My only complaint is it isn't a T-top car.
Cool model. I actually had a '84 L69 5.0 H.O. 5 speed Z28 I bought new in '83 and a '85 5.0 TPI IROC-Z, also ordered new in early '85.
I built the 1/8 scale Monogram IROC-Z back in the day.
Nice build! Love the new paint booth.
Great build. You are right about the part count, that is not all that matters looks like a well detailed kit. If I can find a good deal I will buy one.
Great looking model! 👌
Wow! What a nice car!
Happy New Year Chris, hope the holidays have been good to you. This is a nice build, I have the 1:24 Simon & Simon Camaro Snap kit model already built I think this kit is a re-issue of that kit just different box art maybe the plate decals are different, hood vents are a different style too but I had fun building that kit it, I did the body in red like in the TV show with all black interior came out real nice. but anyway thanks for posting and sharing bud.
Yeah, loved the 80s show tie-ins Revell did. even if the box art can't show the TV show we can know it's the same kit and build it to match.
Here's to hoping for a Magnum PI Ferrari, VW Vanagon and Helicopter reissue too.
Great model. It think when i can get my hands on 1 overhere in Europe, i will open up the hoodvents,with a scriber or exacto knife. Then you can see part of the engine from the top. Great build cris as usual,and a great color combo
This is a great kit and you did a wonderful job. FYI that’s not a gas tank in the rear that you painted silver, the gas tank sits above the axle. Looks good though.
At first I was disappointed with this kit because of the low parts count; however, you have shown it builds into a very nice model. You have done a really nice job with this one as you always do in your videos. Definitely a kit I want to purchase. It would be a great kit for a 24-hour build. Thanks for sharing.
Like always, it looks so easy when you do this...congrats.
great video!! getting ready to start that same model! this is very helpful :)
My brother had a real 1985 Z28 Camaro back when he was in the United States Navy back in the mid 1980s, it was a rustic color with the gold ground effects, T-tops, white lettered tires and the gold accent colored five spoke Z28 Camaro wheels 🙂❤️👍
That was a one year only color. I think it was called Copper (code 69L). Beautiful car!
I used this same kit but used the pro stock chassis from Ricky Smiths pro stock thunderbird.
Matt Trakker approves! 👍🏽
Love the 3 gen camaro z28 build bud .
You forgot the Firebirds/Trans AM. lol
Nice build. A kit doesn't need to have a high number of parts to be nice. I have it from a previous release. From what I've heard, unless they have fixed the mistake, the belts and pulley are inversed from the real car. I think it just mean that the alternator is on the wrong side of the body. But heh. That's fine, most people won't know and a modeler can always fix that if it bothers them.
i think you did a great job since i wouldn't had change anything on it
Great work as always Cris I got my booth on Thursday looking forward to using
I hope Revell re-releases the Ultra Street Machine version I built as a kid. That would be sweet. Great job as usual.
Looks awesome man!
1985 is my birth year! Very well done on that Camaro Sir! That detail is very impressive. I see you upgraded your paint booth!
This Camaro kit reminds me of the way the Monogram Classic Cruiser '82 Corvette is constructed.
Turned out well. A tawny interior would of also provided a nice contrast?
Some police agencies used these Camaros as pursuit vehicles. This kit is good to use for a cop car because it doesn't have T-tops, something the police probably wouldn't pay extra for.
I don't build many 80's cars, but this one caught my eyes. In your hands seems that the parts fit like a finger in the nose. Regards from Brasil.
Nicely done
I just so happen to have my Van Halen shirt on. PERFECT!
Mate you are a dead set Legend, Love the excitement and passion you bring to all Your videos, Keep It up, Cheers Jason
Thanks a lot!
Nice job sir! Use to own a 82 Z/28 in red or maroon.
Always wanted a 1986 IROC Z28 with the optional crossfire 305 V8 motor black with dark interior and t-tops oh yes I will get one way or another
Your videos are great, but what do you with all of the models when you are finished building them?
Can you make a video with all of the builds?
Great video Chris, keep em coming I'll keep watching.
This kit is just a hairs breath away from an IROC. Are there aftermarket front facia for this kit? Or is there an IROC release of this kit that I missed?
Incredible build Chris!! 👏 Excellence presentation!!
RATT n ROLL
Super nice!
Nice job on this one Chris!!
Another good build, something looked weird with the paint though, especially on the hood. Was primer and paint not compatible?
Change the tires for a right set and the model will looks accurate. Perfect rims size but very bulky tires.
Can't wait to get my hands on this one, the decals alone!!! Too bad they didn't provide their more accurate 1/24 Gatorbacks, shaved of the Goodyear livery of course. Fun throwback👌 thanks Chris, great review and build as usual🏁
Lovely model, I paint with 2 k so that part always is a no no for me, but still a nice kit !
Do you ever use a panel line scriber to deepen the lines on your models? I have only been watching you for a about 2 months but I have yet to see you use one?
Is there a link for the paint booth? I love it!
Do you have any other ideas/way to do the tires other then with a drill
The 85 Z28 under hood area is painted body color from the factory. I have an unrestored real one.
Yes, just like I said in the video.
I saw you use rustolium flat black primer as a base could i use the flat black rustolium 2n1 w the primer already in it and get the same results? New modeler just curious.
It should be fine
Everyone says the paint booth is made for air brush only and not rattle cans. because they can blow up with the fan blowing. I'm thinking of buying the same booth, because I use rattle cans also. Any problems with this??
Rattle cans do NOT blow up paint booths. Whoever told you that needs to get their head examined.
They need to re-issue the 1/16 1985 IROC-Z model kit
My ex next door neighbor was named Mr. Mark Softer lol
Nice work as always fellow Cheesehead!
This doods end product is always mouth watering.
I hate water decals though to hard to deal with
Wow you're all over the Model car this week
At least two builds every single week for years now. Thanks for watching :)
You did a nice job.
This kit is not for me cause not enough parts to have fun.
i really do not care for the way revell molded the engine into the chassis i would have to modify it to fit a better engine into it other then that its not a bad kit
Celo anch'io 1/8
Skill level 4?,48 parts? Doesn't add up Revell Germany
