AMT 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Build

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Here is a 1968 Camaro Z/28 that I built from an AMT kit. Built this one back in 2006 and used a few parts from the later AMT 67 Z/28 kit, Decals from Fred Cady and some Photo Etch items from Model Car Garage.

    This is a pretty nice kit from amt. I remember building this kit as a teen. I built it start to finish while watching the 24hrs of Le Man's. Great build you've done also.

    Very nice build. Excellent work with the air induction. AMT kits get a bad rap at times, but they make many very good kits. The sliver is a good color even though it was not available. Nice video. Thanks for sharing.

    Beautiful build! It's sounds funny to hear of a Chevy 302 when all have heard of the more common Ford 302 engine. One of the guys I went to school with had a 4 door Chevelle with a 302 in it. First time I ever heard of it. Anyways Thanks for sharing your build.

    Very cool! I entertained buying a 74 Z/28 project that was nice and had lots of parts to go with it. It was actually a good project but I really didn’t have much room for it with what I already had. Plus I was not as excited about the 74 body changes as I really like the 70-73s. So I passed but wish I didn’t.
