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 as a competing model to the Ford Mustang. The Camaro shared its platform and major components with the Firebird, produced by Chevy's sister division Pontiac, 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.[7] Over five million Camaros have been sold.
The first-generation Camaro debuted in September 1966. It was produced for the 1967 to 1969 model years on a new rear-wheel drive GM F-body platform as a two-door 2+2 in coupé and convertible models. The base engine was 230 cu in (3.8 L) inline-6, with a 250 cu in (4.1 L) six or 302 cu in (4.9 L), 307 cu in (5.0 L), 327 cu in (5.4 L), 350 cu in (5.7 L), and 396 cu in (6.5 L) V8s as options. Concerned with the runaway success of the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet executives realized that the sporty version of their compact rear-wheel drive Corvair, the Monza, would not be able to generate the sales volume of the Mustang due to limitations with that layout (including its inability to share the whole range of Chevrolet engines) and declining sales, partly due to the negative publicity from Ralph Nader's book, Unsafe at Any Speed. Therefore, the Camaro was touted as having the same conventional rear-drive, front-engine configuration as the Mustang. In addition, the Camaro could borrow parts from the existing Chevy Nova the way the Mustang did from the Ford Falcon. The first-generation Camaro lasted until the 1969 model year and eventually inspired the design of the new retro fifth-generation Camaro.
The first-generation was available in Super Sport, Rally Sport, and beginning in December 1966 the high-performance Z/28, models. It came with stripes on the hood and trunk (that could be optioned-out at no charge), styled rally road wheels, and a special 302 cu in (4.9 L) V8 engine that had been developed for Trans Am series racing. Front vent windows disappeared and safety side marker lights appeared in 1968.
Before any official announcement, reports began running during April 1965 within the automotive press that Chevrolet was preparing a competitor to the Ford Mustang, code-named Panther.[8] On June 21, 1966, around 200 automotive journalists received a telegram from General Motors stating, "...please save noon of June 28 for important SEPAW meeting. Hope you can be on hand to help scratch a cat. Details will follow...(signed) John L. Cutter - Chevrolet public relations - SEPAW secretary." The following day, the same journalists received another General Motors telegram stating, "Society for the Eradication of Panthers from the Automotive World will hold first and last meeting on June 28...(signed) John L. Cutter - Chevrolet public relations SEPAW secretary." These telegrams puzzled automotive journalists.[8]
On June 28, 1966, General Motors held a live press conference in Detroit's Statler-Hilton Hotel. It was the first time that 14 cities were connected in real-time for a press conference via telephone lines.[8] Chevrolet general manager Pete Estes started the news conference stating that all attendees of the conference were charter members of the Society for the Elimination of Panthers from the Automotive World and that this would be the first and last meeting of SEPAW. Estes then announced a new car line, project designation XP-836, with a name that Chevrolet chose in keeping with other car names beginning with the letter C such as the Corvair, Chevelle, Chevy II, and Corvette. He claimed the name, "suggests the comradeship of good friends as a personal car should be to its owner" and that "to us, the name means just what we think the car will do... go." The Camaro name was then unveiled.[8] Automotive press asked Chevrolet product managers, "what is a Camaro?" and were told it was "a small, vicious animal that eats Mustangs,"[9] an obvious reference to the extremely successful Ford Mustang that created and dominated the Pony car market GM was entering.

My kind of ride, crusty and rusty! Mighty cool Chris! Rock on 🤘 bud!
YAY another weathered Camaro. I loved the yellow Camaro and have been waiting for you to build another one and weather it
Yet another awesome job Chris stay safe and positive
I really appreciate your review videos , Chris. They are helping me get through this recovery process from surgery. 🍿🍿🍿
I ABSOTIVELY POSOLUTELY WITHOUT A DOUBT LOVE THIS BARN-FIND Version Of Yours Chris ‼️‼️‼️ Thanks AGAIN For Sharing Your Skills and Love Of This Hobby. God Bless You and All Yours 👍👍, Gary.
I like a good barn find , very cool what you did to your model 👍🇦🇺
Superb job in weathering as always! Thank you!
Great job Chris as always .excellent job on the 69 Cameron 396 ss.
You do a great job of weathering Chris so I take it this is the version of a Wisconsin barn find 👍

A nice touch could have been the hood hinges and springs from another kit and thr hood propped against a fender. And a scratchbuilt bird's nest where the carb used to be?
Another great build. HOWEVER, it did get a little "exhausting" at the end (insert Dad joke response here). So. how old am I? I was 23 in '69 and Uncle Sam still 'owned me" but this was one of the dream cars that kept me going - until I traded Army greens for good old Blue Jeans. Thanks again, Chris, for you unique and clever "takes" on each model you build.
Cool idea!! If Revell reads these comments, we definitely need a Grumpy Jenkins version of this car!!!

The MPC version of his Vega just had performance parts added to the stock kit. The wheelie bars glued to the gas tank just looked ridiculous.
I like to watch the actual build sequence at 2x speed. It makes the music a little goofy, but I slow down to normal speed when you talk. Great video, as always.
fantastic work Chris!
As a fellow model builder I have built this model umpteen different time the exhaust system is totally incorrect for this issue of the model chambered exhaust only issued for the 69 Z28 only a small block the hedders we're only available with the small block Z28 Factory 396 hadd cast iron manifold and non chambered exhaust this can be straightened out finally we get a correct Hood thank you Chris for doing your work I'm sure Revell will sell plenty at least they're trying to update unlike some other manufacturers celis new decal sheets and pad printing tires y'all know who I'm speaking about buyer beware
I always like the stories of your builds
Great build Chris.Loved the weathering
When you’re so good at making models look shiny and new that you need to find ways to make them look old so it isn’t boring anymore.
Love it barn finds are awesome great job!
Great job on the weathering again. Nice build, thanks. Your back story always adds so much to the build.

I dig that beater look for a Camaro. I drive a Dodge. All kidding aside that SS hood is a great addition. Now with the other Revel versions and a bit of kitbashing we can build just about every version/ option '69 Camaro a feller could actually buy. Cool. Would be nice to see some new blue oval , Mopar and AMC kits. If I am going to dream I am dreaming big
What a great barn find.
It looks like a car i would drive.
awesome build
That is so cool, nicely done.
Cool build like the barn finds
You know Chris, always love your videos! No matter what the build is, it's always entertaining to watch you build these kits. You always manage to keep it fun, "even though the haters try to spoil it!" Ah what are you gonna do right? Stay pleasant dude, keep on building & making these REALLY cool videos!
Chris, what about a tutorial on using Rustall to weather, say, an old abandoned pick-up truck? Or the headlight brows on a '57 Chevy?
Sure enough sir..!! Always respectful and appreciative of your methods, results and vid content.!! Sorry but don't look to me for one of those negative comments....

Man, that looks just terrible ! Great job ! 😉 I remember building a couple of these Camaros back around 1990 or so, and they were excellent kits then as they still are now. That new hood adds another whole dimension to the car too. Thanks for another interesting review, Chris.
Great weathering techniques Chris. Although the 69 Camaro is one of my favorite cars and seeing it all beat up like that nearly brought a tear to my eye....:( Build on!!

EXACTLY what I expected them doing, aka use parts from their many versions of that kit and then add the new hood and vents. Which is actually a good thing. This kit many variations are actually one of my fav kit (since they're all the same kit with certain differences). I though they would've also have added a "normal" exhaust pipe set, 'cuz from what I've read the exaust they use were something GM tried but they weren't that good, so they recalled all the cars with them to put on a "normal" exhaust system. But that's still fine, just thought they'd take the time to do this as well since they took the time to make a new hood. Again, really nice build. I'm not into damaged vehicles at all, but the more I see builders like you build such cars, the more I'm thinking of doing one myself one day.

A set of stock exhaust manifolds would've been nice too. Also a set of tires that fit the larger rallye wheels. The exhaust from the revell '69 Nova will fit nicely att the back. In the front it needs to be trimmed to fit the manifolds. Stock manifolds can also be found in the Revell '69 Yenko or COPO Nova kits.

I wanted to let you know I love your model car builds on your channel. And I wanted to let you that I purchased tamiya 1:16 scale porsche 935 racecar with suspension and ignition wiring opening doors hood engine cover and door steerable front wheels. I also wanted to say you a great on the Camaro SS 396 model build. Now if only if you could the real thing parked out front in your driveway right.

Very nice weathering. You do a great job with the weathering, and have a lot of paints for weathering in your arsenal, but you should take a look at the AK Interactive washes and pigments. I’ve been using those with great results. This looks like another great well engineered Revell kit. Thanks for sharing.
Ist ja recht schön geworden!😉

Great build. Love your stuff. You can still find the vintage molds of this kit on the auction sites and swap meets. I picked one up last year for about 25 bucks with shipping. Probably one of my favorite builds.
Just missing some little clumps of mouse nest materials : ) Great build!
These Revell 69 Camaros have always been the gold standard for Camaro lovers but I wish they would have included the standard dual exhaust instead of the Yenko chambered exhaust which has never been offered on these Revell kits since day one.
Did you find a tiny hint of a seam running the full length of the body along the top rib of the front and rear quarter panels? I did the Revell Challenger and initially thought the body seamless until I hit it with primer.
Thank you for sharing your weathering technics. I was scratching my head with that crackle tech, but it all came together and looked great! Wondering where you find that oil slick stuff?
It looks like it’s been sitting still for 32 years
