When I was a kid my parents took us all to a dealership to purchase a new minivan and the Viper had just come out. I was around 7 or 8 at the time and I was bored but doing my best to stay cooperative and I noticed in the glass case a small model of a black Dodge Viper and I couldn't keep my eyes off it. After a little while negotiating with my parents the salesman was between tasks and he walked over to the case and opened it. He grabbed the little Viper and handed it to me. I can't remember exactly what he said but I was so excited that he'd be so generous that I was immediately in love. I spent the next 5 years collecting Viper things and absolutely losing my mind whenever I saw one (very rare where I lived). I never stopped to think that other dealerships or manufacturers might make models of their cars for the same purpose. That's really cool to know I wasn't alone!
That’s so cool that you used a dealer promo model as a base for this RC! I love these style of Camaros, my dad used to have a white ‘83 when he was in college. Great build, always enjoy your content. Much love from Texas!
MPC did a great job on that promo body, and the stance and realistic suspension squat while driving is impressive. The dusty tire spinning shots looked real.
Ahh that car brings back some fond memories. Beautiful job on it, only thing that would have made it better is if tou would have made it and IROC-Z. I know they weren't made in 83, but I have a spot in my heart for the old iroc's.
I love these rc cars. Used to play with these toys when I was a kid. Got older and got real cars, so much more fun. Love watching my son still play with these kids toys.
Pretty cool! I'm an, "Old School" model builder. I like how the suspension reacts. Here's a few suggestions. The car needs a torque bar. Also, using a, "toothpick" to paint the, "Z28" badges. I did an exact replica of my 1987 IROC-Z and I sold it for $200 bucks in 2000. I used to live in my room doing this. I wish I could share a picture. You would of FREAKED.
i just wanted you to know i give you absolute respect and what’s so cool is that what you did with the rc car. it looks EXACTLY like mine. down to every detail!
As an owner of an 84 Z28 in real life I thought this was the coolest thing ever! Definitely would like to build a white version of this to display inside my 84 at car shows.
I had a Toy RC Camaro as a kid. If memory serves correct someone brought it back for me from Hong Kong. Awesome toy. Looked great and drove not too bad for a toy.
Awesome! Would love to see a more detailed version for sure! As for the engine, a stock, carbueted 305 L69 with the dual inlet intake ducts would be perfect.
I have a blue 87 z28 I bought when I was 17 and I'm 35 now and had in storage for years. I only put 2800 miles on it in all them years. Watching this makes me want to get it out again.
Third Gens are easily the most underappreciated and coolest cars ever built. Which is nice because you can still get a real one for a decent price. Only problem with most of them is that they were owned by people who liked to "bubba" their cars so most of them need a lot of work. But they are SO worth it.
Funny thing is, I’ve been seeing this video in my suggestions for the longest time. I’ve only been avoiding it because i thought it was an actual full sized Camaro converted into an RC. In other words yes, yes you did an amazing job. I have no regrets clicking on your video👌🏼
Excellent work! I haven't dived into detailed RC models like your build but I really appreciate the work you and other detailed rc builders do to get these machines to run!
I used to use the plastic holder that all the parts snapped off of as roll bars and push bumpers on a bunch of creations I wish I still had all the model cars I built growing up thanks for bringing me back for a few
MakeitRC this is absolutely freaking awesomeness AWESOME !! Can we please see more of the detailed build you mentioned? Great work man !! 👍👌💪 Looks beautiful.
Really outstanding, since you did such a great job with attention to detail I wanted to tell you about one important thing that's missing. It might not seem all that important, however 3rd gen people notice this everytime if it's not done, mostly on full scale cars. On the front ground effects where it's open that is always supposed to be painted black, many times when that gets re-painted, body shops sometimes forget to do that.
Love what your doing can't wait to get to point where ppl are basically using one of your kits in future as a actual full blown rc racing chassis and able to use any model car body and model car kits they want like 1/24 scale slot car racing and the possibilities will be endless and make for some really cool and super scale rc racing at your house where you can build like 6 of them put up a nice little mini z track in your garage or shop or house and a timing system and be able to race when your friends come over and having league racing
This was totally awesome to watch from start to finish. I have to learn how to do this so I can enjoy spending more time with my sons doing this hobby. It will bring us closer together.
@@MakeItRC I'm planning on building it using the '82 Z28 kit from Revell. It's basically the same body except for the flares in front of the rear tires. If you do build one, I would be interested in buying any of the parts you would need to print for the exterior. Like the front lights and bumper. Great channel, keep up the good work. 🤟🤠👍
Do another one, and make the engine a cross fire. Those don't get enough love. If you want to make a big one, there's an old monogram 1/8 scale Camaro that comes with Indy pace car decals. I think that would be an awesome build.
Great job make it rc i am big (edit:really super fan of camaro model ) it's looks very much like the real one as your work dose justice to 3rd gen model with the 3d printed mirrors giving it nice touch anyway thanks for the video and have nice night bye now.
I think the 2 black gods that are on either side of the rear license plate are supposed to be the backup light so they should be like an opaque white...... What an awesome build this looks so good I'm probably gonna have to sacrifice and build a couple of RC cars out of models I've already completed!!!🔄🙂👍
You need those chrome molotow markers bro \o/ They'd pop so good. Also you should totally show the build stage after the paint and prep stage, cause when i see how good you do up the car i can't -wait- to see it drivin around. Suspeeense
Glad you liked it. I'm finishing up a full build video featuring my first 1/24 scale 4x4 model to RC truck build. You might be interested in that project. It should be ready within a month or two. 👍
The 1/24 scale crawler market got huge, but it's had me itching to do a old school monster truck. Only have a pile of something like 50 1/25 scale models from when I was a kid. So plenty of options lol. Most of what I have now is 1/10 scale. But body options aren't as open in that world.

Thanks for watching everyone! This video took awhile to edit so I'm very happy to finally share it with all of you. 👍
❤❤❤
Is it possible to make an RC version out of some of my 1:18 scale model cars by Kyosho & Bburago? 🤔
@@gustav_a.mozumder2011 Probably, might need a bit different drivetrain solution though as it's a much larger & heavier model you'll be working with.
Turned out awesome! Nice job! Looks so cool too
Comment 👨🔧
That burnout at 22:37 really looks like the actual car. Awesome work, man!
yah that looks legit.
Put the Sound of V8

Ever since I was a kid, I've always wanted to convert a model to rc. Awesome job! wouldn't mind seeing a detailed one done!
That’s so cool that you used a dealer promo model as a base for this RC! I love these style of Camaros, my dad used to have a white ‘83 when he was in college. Great build, always enjoy your content. Much love from Texas!
Looks like she came right out of my childhood!!
i love the slo mo burn outs and how the chassis act like its under actual load from the torque converter just like the real car. nice detail
MPC did a great job on that promo body, and the stance and realistic suspension squat while driving is impressive. The dusty tire spinning shots looked real.

84 z28 owner here... youve done justice to this car. Excellent job
Crazy for how small of a model it is, it looks so realistic and I love it!
Can’t believe how real the burnout looked rat down to the tire shaking lol great work

Love your videos they really help with my anxiety
i just wanted you to know i give you absolute respect and what’s so cool is that what you did with the rc car. it looks EXACTLY like mine. down to every detail!
like all the details you added and hell even the raised rearend😂
The body is actually very very accurate and well detailed.
As an owner of an 84 Z28 in real life I thought this was the coolest thing ever! Definitely would like to build a white version of this to display inside my 84 at car shows.
No words to describe, very very nice job, fantastic, I`m in love of this tiny jewel! keep posting more videos from this model and the others you have.
I had a Toy RC Camaro as a kid. If memory serves correct someone brought it back for me from Hong Kong. Awesome toy. Looked great and drove not too bad for a toy.
Its so good that looks like a real life sized when in the set
Awesome! Would love to see a more detailed version for sure!
As for the engine, a stock, carbueted 305 L69 with the dual inlet intake ducts would be perfect.
More then a few of these cars if they’re still around have had LS swaps. I’ve personally done 3 of them
I have a blue 87 z28 I bought when I was 17 and I'm 35 now and had in storage for years. I only put 2800 miles on it in all them years. Watching this makes me want to get it out again.
I'd really like to see you build an older 911. With the battery on the very rear for realistic weight.
rear motor chassis are already on the market, like 3racing sakura d5 RR
Third Gens are easily the most underappreciated and coolest cars ever built. Which is nice because you can still get a real one for a decent price. Only problem with most of them is that they were owned by people who liked to "bubba" their cars so most of them need a lot of work. But they are SO worth it.
That outside track was cool, very atmospheric with the sandy road you made. Great build.

lol That's funny and a huge compliment as well. Thank you!
So, I am a diehard third gen guy, and this is the coolest video I have ever seen.
First time seeing this kind of conversion. Beautiful, all of it!
Excellent work! I haven't dived into detailed RC models like your build but I really appreciate the work you and other detailed rc builders do to get these machines to run!
I used to use the plastic holder that all the parts snapped off of as roll bars and push bumpers on a bunch of creations I wish I still had all the model cars I built growing up thanks for bringing me back for a few
I think a LS swap and a very detailed engine bay would be badass
This here is my favorite generation of camaro. I'm currently building a 82' z28
i actually use to own this model, it was a 92 25th anniversary camaro. it sounded really nice with a flowmaster but this rc looks phenominal
I can’t believe you did it. It looks just like my Camaro I just have t tops
MakeitRC this is absolutely freaking awesomeness AWESOME !! Can we please see more of the detailed build you mentioned? Great work man !! 👍👌💪 Looks beautiful.
Thank you! Yes, I'm finally finishing up a 85 Trans Am that has a full interior and more detail. Stay tuned for that video. 👍
I had an 87 IROC. What a blast.
Whoaaaaaa so realistic THANK YOU 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Looks fantastic. I've got one of those AMT IROC models. I should build mini of my 85 IROC.
Beautiful upgrades to that model!!
This looks absolutely amazing
That car looks awesome.
Makes me miss my 91 Camaro RS.
The red n Silver go great together for this car.
coolest rc build vid i've seen in a long time. awesome. would be prefect with with working headlights and tails.
i have a 1994 blazer with those same wheels this finished RC Car has, i love that style of wheel.
This build is cool. I’d like to see you paint the car fully and do a more detailed build.
Really outstanding, since you did such a great job with attention to detail I wanted to tell you about one important thing that's missing.

I have a 87 I daily, love this build

I have one!! It’s a teal z28 and I want to turn it into an RC now so I can match my actual car 😄 it’ll be so cool to have an RC identical to my car
I built slot cars out of 1/25 models. This is very cool!!! Yes it can be done with more details!!! Built a 87 buick grand national
Lol - Lovin' the slow-mo burnouts!
This was totally awesome to watch from start to finish. I have to learn how to do this so I can enjoy spending more time with my sons doing this hobby. It will bring us closer together.
Great build 👏 love that raido link transmitter got one myself after watching your videos it and always reliable 😀.
Awesome brother. 🤟🤠👍If your not familiar with the Ghost Camaro, look into it. You will want to build it.
Thank you. That would be an awesome build. Not only a cool car but the story behind it is incredible.

Fantastic build! I love it. The base of the model was pretty good too, but you made a diamond from it. 👍👍👍
Man just looking at it run,
Looks good 👍, reminds me of the 1990 Camaro o used to drive sometime ago.
Do another one, and make the engine a cross fire. Those don't get enough love. If you want to make a big one, there's an old monogram 1/8 scale Camaro that comes with Indy pace car decals. I think that would be an awesome build.

Same color combo as mine!! Love it
If there was a 1982 Trans am firebird to build as a rc car 🤩
Amazing no rust!
Awesome accuracy, it has axle hop just like the real deal lol.
Damn I really want that Camaro RC!
Another well done, inspiring video! makes me want to put a kit together.
I love this and I think you should do a model with an original Chevy small block
I absolutely NEED THIS
I think the 2 black gods that are on either side of the rear license plate are supposed to be the backup light so they should be like an opaque white...... What an awesome build this looks so good I'm probably gonna have to sacrifice and build a couple of RC cars out of models I've already completed!!!🔄🙂👍
The wheels look so good \o/
This is awesome I’m currently making a Napa toy s10 into a rc
Great video. This is the first video I've seen from you and I enjoyed it. You've earned yourself a new sub
Matt Trakker would be proud!
Awesome build 💯🤘😎🇺🇸
Love the builds
I HAVE THIS CAR IRL as a project car AWESOME
Wow! This burnout!
Fingers crossed for a restock soon!
This is awesome stuff man!
93 cobra w open hood will be sick
Thats super awesome !! Would love to see some jdm builds
Goddamn, this is the best background music I’ve heard in a long time.
So so so cool!!!!!
Great job
Yes Please 🙏 that would be Amazing. It would be great for my birthday. It and me both turn 40 next year 😭😭😭😭😉
Amazing, just awesomeness! Ready to see a chassis for those G-bodies now!
1987 Oldsmobile 442 I would love it 💙💯💪🏾
Looks sharp
I miss my 86 Iroc Great build
Awesome job
You need those chrome molotow markers bro \o/ They'd pop so good.
Also you should totally show the build stage after the paint and prep stage, cause when i see how good you do up the car i can't -wait- to see it drivin around. Suspeeense
This is really cool to watch. I love old Camaros!! Could you possibly do a truck? I wanna make one of my truck but i dont know how it would look.
Glad you liked it. I'm finishing up a full build video featuring my first 1/24 scale 4x4 model to RC truck build. You might be interested in that project. It should be ready within a month or two. 👍
@@MakeItRC ooh. Can’t wait!
Looks really awesome! I love old IROCs. If you can get your hands on a Firebird body, you should do a Knight Rider KITT build.
Welp, I just had a look at your channel & saw you're already working on a KITT. Rad! I hope there will be a long-form video when its complete.
Wow thats amazing 🙌
If you modify the chassis from the promo car , you could use the screws that held it on originally, cool build 👍
I wanna do a hot rod🤗 these kits look awesome
Awesome Camaro RC car !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow I love it, great job very nice video I'm subscribed
Awesome. Love this idea. 👍👍
The 1/24 scale crawler market got huge, but it's had me itching to do a old school monster truck. Only have a pile of something like 50 1/25 scale models from when I was a kid. So plenty of options lol. Most of what I have now is 1/10 scale. But body options aren't as open in that world.
The music goes well with acid!
I have an ertl one, the same tooling as the promo cars. But now I need to make mine RC now.
Nice work
A lowrider with hydraulics would be awesome
