I honestly think you had started the spray can movement about 2 years ago. What I mean by that is you proved to a ton of builders that you can use common spray paints instead of the air brush and still have an amazing looking paint job. I'm 1 of those who didn't put much stock in rattle can paint jobs because I was brought up on the air brush. Thank you for showing some of us older and newer modelers that you don't need to spend a ton of money to make a beautiful and very presentable build. Much respect for you and a very loyal fan.
I built this kit back in about 1984. The version I had had the body molded in the dark blue metallic and it came with a special wax that you applied to give it a deep shine. As I recall, it was labeled as a turtle wax product. A great looking model.
I became a fan of your show when Covid started. After a 30 year hiatus the show brought me back into building models. Thanks for all the information and great videos. Keep up the good work
I build this kit from 30 years ago this one is beautiful love the b.f. Goodrich decals those make the difference even the real tires make these old muscle cars look great made my day thanks!!!!
I will definitely be buying this kit. I have the Metal-Glow version of this kit from the 80s that I watched my Dad build when I was a kid. Still one of my favorite models.
Absolutely fantastic and awesome build brother. Absolutely killed it with this build. Thank you for sharing your builds, ideas, and tips. Everyone keep yourself and love ones safe and healthy and remember to smile it's suppose to be fun. Thank you again
I had the 80s issue of this kit with the body molded in metallic blue and it had a little tear open packet of turtle wax included. It was a very cool kit that goes together extremely easy. I think they may have added a hood and a supercharger to this newer issue as well as more decals. .I need to get me one of these! I used testors sapphire blue metallic on mine and used the white rear super bee stripes. It turned out AWESOME! Great parent child project. The level of detail is excellent, don't let the fact it doesn't have a high parts count fool you! Keep building your way!! .
I had the the molded in blue metalflake version of this kit that I build when I was about 13 yrs old. I used testors sapphire blue spray bombs. This is a very easy kit and those who hate on it can go suck lemons. The new tires with this kit are alot better than the first version I had. And indeed, I truly enjoy my purchase. This kit is EASY. The exhaust manifolds are easy if you rubber band the engine to the chassis then make sure you have em angled out so they line up. This is EASY cause you can actually snap the exhaust pipes/ rear springs and axle in to verify it. Just how I did mine. Y'all are missing out on a very cool kit if you don't like it's scale. It would be a great father/daughter build...it fits nice.
I built that same car model back in the 1990s. It was the one by Monogram that was molded in a blue metallic plastic. I took the Testors silver metallic and gloss blue paint and mixed up my own blue metallic paint for the body color. It looked close to the B5 blue that they used in the factory. It was a nice looking car when I was done.
14:16 Chris, thanks for still another amazing video. Speaking only for myself, I like to paint most of the non-chrome engine parts with Dullcoat after I paint them. It looks more realistic to me. I know you handle chrome the same way, for the same reason.
Happy New Year and a big hug from Mexico. I hope that all your desires and goals will be fulfilled and that you have a lot of health and joy just like your family. Thank you for your videos and feedback.
Really nice looking build. I am 1/2 way through mine; yellow and flat black. I tried a textured paint for a vinyl top which came out pretty cool. Love your dash work too. 👌
I was lucky enough to have the actual car in 1969. My Superbee was orange with a removable black fiberglass spoiler hood and I installed Hooker Headers on it, as well. I loved that car!!
Really nice build Chirs... 69 was a great year for any car that came! Luv the color and it looks ready for the road , how about a nice burnout!!!😀thanks again for sharing...👍👍
Any chrome parts that I don't want to be chrome I just soak in a little Purple Power and it completely removes the chrome from the part. I love watching your vids by the way. Been building for about 40 years and still pick up all kinds of neat new tricks on building from you! Keep it up!
Fun sweet ride my brother had one in 1973 in high school he was one of the cool guys :) later in 1976 i got a 1967 Chevelle SS396 Turbo 400 auto fun screamer too :) we were lucky kids
I have an older release of this kit, and I built mine almost identical to yours. I just did a white vinyl top using masking tape and white paint on mine.
had some old kits laying around and a old tube of testors cement so I used that much as I could but it was toast! so went to hobby lobby looking for tamiya cement and they had nothing! went next door to harbor freight to check thier glues out and found a 3 pack on slow CA. $1.80 that did the trick! worked great and parts were easily attached in seconds w/o waiting for things to dry... something else that works for drag/show cars is spray windows with transparent blue which gives a stealth appearance.......... nice job on the B!!
My best friend's first car was a 1969 Coronet 440...in 1982, and not a Super Bee. He only had the car about 6-8 months before he wrecked it. Even before then, it was in really bad shape; the brakes were incredibly soft and there were serious rust holes in the body; it's a wonder it survived long enough to be wrecked. BTW, when my friend wrecked it, the only damage was to the car and he walked away without a scratch. Great build Chris, if my friend's only looked like that.
Nice build once again. One thing that gets me are the mold seams. There's one on each side under the c-pillar and around the engine just to mention a few. I never leave them be, they have to be sanded off. But that's just my 2c. Great work. You brought the fun back into this hobby and thanks to Your videos my kit stash keeps piling up and my wallet light and thin 🤣🤣
I love that paint color with the bumblebee stripes on the back of the car and I can understand how delicate they can be to put on those tires but the car came out gorgeous beautiful incredible awesome superb outstanding remarkable amazing as all your other models do.it is excellent fantastic eye popping jaw dropping. and as always keep up your great work.
Great job Chris! I'm glad they added shocks. I don't believe these were included in the original issue of the kit. The decals look much better too. Much more opaque. Nice. And love the satin look of the hood. I originally built this kit back in the 80's, right after it came out. Looks like I have to build it again! May add a vinyl top, just to be a little different......:)
I built it in the 80's as a Monogram kit. Moded in blue metal glow. includes Turtle Wax plastic model kit wax. Monogram number 2215 .I still have the box
Chris - not sure if you know this, but the front frame sections on the vintage Mopar muscle cars would be body color, not black. It's a unibody - are fame components and sheet metal are welded together and painted as one in real life. Nice work, by the way. Your videos are addictive!
Using the finer textured short shots on the hood was a good call. I used to work on MoPars, and those fiberglass hoods were smooth on top but rough underneath.
I was waiting for you to build this Chris!!! SOOOOOO dang cool!! I went and got my kit beginning of last month sometime. I got something to look forward to now!! Love it buddy!!🤘🤘👍
This was actually my first glue kit (the first I have any memory of anyways)....in the early-mid 80's, it was molded in that cool dark blue metallic, I remember my dad helped a bit (at 47 now, I was 10-12 then), LOL, so when I saw this as "coming soon" on Model Roundup I pre-ordered a couple 😁 Great build, Chris (and I appreciate the trip down memory lane it brought me on), looks great and I love your color choices 😊✌
Loved it Chris, as always! You've been doing some really cool stuff lately. Just got my order in from the folks at MR. They are awesome indeed! Always look forward to these very awesome videos Chris. Keep on truckin', and remember to "not sweat the petty things, and DON'T pet the sweaty things!" See you next time, stay safe brutha....
Chris, you're a rockstar... I always love watching your kit builds. I can't post any of my builds because I don't have facebook but I frequently give you shout-outs on my channel when I'm featuring my kits. Keep up the great work, you have the best attitude!

Another really neat build! I'd add this to my collection... But I still have to finish my 60++ unfinished kits. XD
You can do it!
@@hpiguy Yes, slowly but surely.
Saw a 68 super bee at a gas station ast year awsome car
Ment to write last year
@Timothy Hunter it cost money thoe
I build this kit from 30 years ago this one is beautiful love the b.f. Goodrich decals those make the difference even the real tires make these old muscle cars look great made my day thanks!!!!
Right on!
When you showed the rear window I saw The Jokers smile there. Super build Chris, keep em coming I'll keep watching.
I will definitely be buying this kit. I have the Metal-Glow version of this kit from the 80s that I watched my Dad build when I was a kid. Still one of my favorite models.
Enjoy!
While in the Air Force, stationed in Montana in the early 70's, I owned a 68 Super Bee, bronze color, 383 magnum. Would love to have it again.
Absolutely fantastic and awesome build brother. Absolutely killed it with this build. Thank you for sharing your builds, ideas, and tips. Everyone keep yourself and love ones safe and healthy and remember to smile it's suppose to be fun. Thank you again
Thanks for the support!
This model looks more modern. The moldings are great and proud. I can totally picture this car on the street today, and at car shows. Beautiful!
Thank you!
This project looks so amazing the color combinations on a car that already has good lines. I’m blown away it looks so good. Great build
Thanks so much!

My top 5 favorite car ever. You do the coolest models!
Glad you like them!
Gotta love that blue paint-job with white stripes!!!!
Thanks a lot!
I was lucky enough to have the actual car in 1969. My Superbee was orange with a removable black fiberglass spoiler hood and I installed Hooker Headers on it, as well. I loved that car!!
I had the '80's (blue metallic) Turtle Wax version. Glad to see this kit back again.
I love the box art on that one, hence sticking with the metal blue paint.
Really nice build Chirs... 69 was a great year for any car that came! Luv the color and it looks ready for the road , how about a nice burnout!!!😀thanks again for sharing...👍👍
Thanks a lot!
Nice simple kit love Mopar s sweet build the colors are very nice thanks for all your builds and tips waiting on the next build .

Nice video Chris...... That's a GREAT kit!!!!!!! 👍 👌 👍 👌
It sure is!
Great build!! The Tchaikovsky was perfect with the paint, the PSH PSH of the spray can was synchronized well. Fine work!
Thank you very much!
Now that's a gorgeous Mopar! I mean that car looks just as hot as a 68/69 Charger. Good stuff! Great job!
Fun sweet ride my brother had one in 1973 in high school he was one of the cool guys :) later in 1976 i got a 1967 Chevelle SS396 Turbo 400 auto fun screamer too :) we were lucky kids
Thank you!
A superbee on a car calender has given me inspiration for this kit! Think ill pick the kit up and recreate the car.
Enjoy!
Great build... I painted the Country Charger that body color and left the hood flat black. the look is awesome!
Thanks a lot!
AWESOMENESS !!
Great work as always.
Paint is done so right.
Thanks again as always Mike!
Can't wait to build mine! Thank you Chris for all your cool advise tips and tricks! What a super sweet build buddy!
Any time!
I have an older release of this kit, and I built mine almost identical to yours. I just did a white vinyl top using masking tape and white paint on mine.
Do your model kits the way you want to friend
Beautiful work on the model car!
Can't go wrong with Mopars! I dig All your builds, Chris. I have a growing inventory of unopened kits just waiting in the wings.
Thanks, Enjoy!
The color reminds me of the one the original 1995 release of the 1967 Plymouth GTX Revell kit came molded in (kit #7359). Looking good thus far!
What a beautiful job my friend,keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!

I don't stress mold lines and what not. Simple, fast, fun builds in a couple days, twice per week is all I do. Thanks a lot!
Just answered the front door and ups just dropped off the 2 I ordered. SUCH A WONDERFUL DAY
Rock on!
Cool build of a really cool car!!! I have learned a lot from watching your channel. Thank you for showing "how to" steps to get good results.
Thank you!
Great looking model. The Super Bee. She's a Honey👍.
Yes indeed!
I love that paint color with the bumblebee stripes on the back of the car and I can understand how delicate they can be to put on those tires but the car came out gorgeous beautiful incredible awesome superb outstanding remarkable amazing as all your other models do.it is excellent fantastic eye popping jaw dropping. and as always keep up your great work.
Right on!
We’re you in my basement? I have been there, done that. We built twins, I built mine in the late 90’s. Awesome build my friend. 👌👌👌
Very cool!
My favorite car of all time 👌 if I ever won money I would go over to America and find one and take it home to Sweden 👌
Killer Super Bee build Chris, I really dig your color choices! Excellent presentation as always!!
Thanks Ron!

Beautiful just BEAUTIFUL Chris, thanks for Sharing n God Bless All.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Another AWESOME build!!! love the detail work on the interior.!!
Thanks a bunch!
I love the model but I love 1970 Super Bee a lot better
I built it in the 80's as a Monogram kit. Moded in blue metal glow. includes Turtle Wax plastic model kit wax. Monogram number 2215 .I still have the box
Great kit/build.....glad its molded in white.
Thanks a lot!
I love your builds, always wonder why they never included headers for the custom version
Hey that's looks great! I like those easy types. Since I switched to rust-oleum I get better paint jobs now. Thanks for all your good tips
Glad you like them!
@@hpiguy I do. Just make sure the paint is dry before putting on that polish or it cracks as I found out. But I can fix it.
Great work. I appreciate your channel
So nice of you!
Nice build, great colour!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great build paint came out great. Flat black looks great. I’m going to have to pick up shortcuts flat black.
Thank you!
Damn. That turned out awesome. Great build.
Thanks a lot!
I just bought this kit not too long ago it was after Christmas I'm going to make it in the street machine look it look like a real nice kit
Hope you enjoy it!
Hey,Chris love your builds Hope to see more
Thanks a lot!
Fabulous, looks great now I have to get one. Thanks Chris

Great work and great video, as always. Thank you. This is one of my 1:1 dream cars.
Glad you liked it!
Another masterpiece Chris great job love the blue thank you for sharing
Thank you! Cheers!
A sweet simple kit. Great build. Thanks.
Glad you like it!
Using the finer textured short shots on the hood was a good call. I used to work on MoPars, and those fiberglass hoods were smooth on top but rough underneath.
Thanks a lot!
I felt that the use of J. Strause’s “Blue Danube Waltz” during the priming and painting was particularly clever.
Thanks a lot!
Looks great Chris. Nice color too. Thanks for sharing.
You bet!
I was waiting for you to build this Chris!!! SOOOOOO dang cool!! I went and got my kit beginning of last month sometime. I got something to look forward to now!! Love it buddy!!🤘🤘👍
Thanks a lot!
My friend has a red superbee here in Australia. Bloody rare car here!
I bet!
Superb outstanding excellent as always keep up your great work it’s amazing what you did on your model
Thank you very much!
Nice. Very faithful to the actual car.
Amazing build as always, would love to get my hands on one of these kits!
You should!
@@hpiguy i definitely will if i see it around in the local shops, i’m in canada so shipping and stuff can be expensive. Love the channel !
Music and spraying seems to be choreographed. Great build once again.
Thanks a lot!
Awesomely beautiful job there Bro.
Thank you kindly!
Beautiful job, Chris!
Thank you kindly!
Sir, your models look so real that I click on the video thumbnail thinking I'll hear a muscle car rumbling! You got me back into this! KUDOS, BRO!!
Thanks a lot!
Your quick and dirty spray paint finishes are as good if not better than most people's weeks long airbrush jobs. Great work!
Wow, thanks!
This was actually my first glue kit (the first I have any memory of anyways)....in the early-mid 80's, it was molded in that cool dark blue metallic, I remember my dad helped a bit (at 47 now, I was 10-12 then), LOL, so when I saw this as "coming soon" on Model Roundup I pre-ordered a couple 😁 Great build, Chris (and I appreciate the trip down memory lane it brought me on), looks great and I love your color choices 😊✌
I still have mine built but. not painted ! Love that kit..
Thanks a lot! Relive the fun!
Yellow windows 💛
I gotta say that dollar store superglue is just about the best superglue I've ever used.
Yeah, pretty handy!
Does super glue work after you have paint on the parts or do u have to scrape the paint off?
Loved it Chris, as always! You've been doing some really cool stuff lately.
Just got my order in from the folks at MR. They are awesome indeed!
Always look forward to these very awesome videos Chris. Keep on truckin',
and remember to "not sweat the petty things, and DON'T pet the sweaty

My grandfather had two 1:1 Coronet 440s. The first was metallic blue and the second was metallic red. I LOVED those cars!
Just built one and wow 🤩
Thanks and Happy New Year to you!
That's one great build mate! Keep building YOUR way :)
Thanks a lot!
I built that model car back in march 1986 and I added third brake light turn light brown with black hard top
Nice job looks great. Also thanks for turning your viewers on to Model Round Up. I think a part of my paycheck gets direct deposited to them. Lol
No problem 👍 I'm sure they appreciate it!
Great build chris thanks
Beautiful paint job.
Thank you!
ALways wanted to do this build ever since I saw this car in Fine Scale mag but the guy did a model bash together to make a 1970 Superbee.
I am currently building 2 of these. A yellow convertible that i made myself by just cuting the roof off of it. And a red one white a white vynil roof.
