I know you're a "chill guy" but MINUS SEVEN - you've made your point, come inside and warm yourself by the crumpling cellophane (fake fire on radio shows). You've inspired me to return to models. Every Saturday, after watching one of your episodes, I then model build. This Saturday, I'm so into it, I started modeling BEFORE hpiguys Workshop. I'm back having FUN, inspired by your consistent builds. Thanks, Chris,
I remember your first few videos (The small sailing ships which I have built.). Your presentations are getting slicker and more detailed and they are hardly pedantic- just great. Thanks
This is a great looking kit. And again you out did yourself. Love it when you say build for you. You feel better doing it for yourself. Who cares what other people think, it your model built your way.
Those Revell Camaro kits are the 👌 best I believe I have 5 different variations of it but need to add this one. Hopefully they will do a drag version of a factory Racer like the Baldwin Motion or Nickey ones
Nice kit unboxing, review, and build as usual, Chris. For your readers out there not familiar with the 1969 Yenko Camaros and not mentioned in the kit description/write-up, Chevy only offered six (6) factory color choices: Daytona Yellow, Hugger Orange, Olympic Gold (the rarest color choice), Rallye Green, Fathom Green, or LeMans Blue. All cars came with black interiors, but you could opt for a black vinyl top in lieu of a body-colored roof. Not sure though what the production numbers break down to between the two choices. In addition to applying the Yenko 427 badges and SYC headrest decals, Yenko Chevrolet gave the customer the choice between the black or white striping package which were applied at the dealership in Canonsburg PA. I can see me eventually buying at least six of these kits to build, one in each color...LOL. 😀👍🇺🇸
I've got one that I'm going to do dark micah blue. I have to wait until warmer weather to paint though. You are very knowledgeable in this car. You must be a fan.
talkin' 'bout the super detailers, i myself am one, but at one point you told me i could go and whine, i realise YOU are right, you yourself have come a million miles since then, you do detail way more than you used to, BUT, where i strive to make show cars, you weather stuff and make it look convincingly well used, like you always say, BUILD FOR YOU!" looks sweet!
Yup, if that makes you enjoy your hobby I say go for it! I always make remarks aimed at the guys who complain about EVERY kit on the market and those who demand everyone else build the same way they do.
LOOKS FANTASTIC BROTHER, Thank you very much for sharing your builds we really enjoy and appreciate your videos. They're great so please keep em coming. Everyone keep yourselves and love ones safe and healthy and remember to SMILE it's a hobby and it's suppose to be FUN.
guess i forgot about this kit being built in good condition chris this is a very nice kit thumbs up for don yenko r i p my good man nice job to you chris too . john
Another entertaining and informative video. Really impressed by the dry brushing on the floorpan and firewall and the results it gave you. Definitely going to have to try it on a build someday. A couple of notes about the 2 Fast 2 Furious movie car. It was not equipped with the Atlas wheels seen in your video, but rather factory sized Cragar S/S wheels. I found a nice set in the Revell street machine release of the 1967 GTX. And the movie car had the Year One decal in the rear window and the Year One front license plate. Both B.F. Goodrich and Year One were companies with product placement in the film and front and center on this Camaro. Not trying to be (an obnoxious) rivet counter, I just think it might be info someone might be interested in if they were trying to replicate the movie car as closely as possible. Along these lines, the movie car was also equipped with a small block 350 instead of the correct for a Yenko 427 that comes with the kit. All part of that "if you can't see it, we're not going to worry about it" Hollywood Magic.😅
I agree! Its cool to see you build them up too. That way if you hit a snag during assembly it would interesting to see how you overcome it. Especially with your bright ideas! I got a 60 something camaro in my workshop, thanks for inspiring me to get crackin at it! Awesome post! 😁
I wish my Polar Lights '64 GTO was this "part replete" especially when it comes to the clear head lamps and chrome backing like you see with your Yenko kit, Chris! I have never seen such detail involving head lights. Like the PL GTO they are just part of the chrome grill and look fake as hell. Love this video! I have not really started my '64 GTO but I wanted to something kind of special so I have removed the roof using a Dremel tool and I will build this one into a drop top. Wish me luck!
I like to install the lower valances prior to paint and if it creates too much pressure on the body i shave the sides and ends of floorpan to facilitate. More assembly shown in this video, very nice!
I just finished the Revel USA version myself last week. I painted mine in bright green metallic. I’ll have to see how you set the engine. Mine would not sit properly. Interesting - my front grill was with the chrome section - I used Tamiya’s black wash to darken it. The exhaust on mine did not have those locating pins. My instruction sheet is nothing like what you had. Mine had a bit of guess work to deal with.
Chris that’s an OUTSTANDING build!!! Everything looks great so many kits so little time. Wish I could crank them out like you. Achieving the finished product is the fun part. Hard to find the time. Great watching you build! Thanks!!!!!
Another great build of a well engineered Revell kit. You did a great job building the kit with the exception of using Revell silver on the transmission instead of Testors silver. Lol. I’m currently building a Revell Germany kit of the ‘78 Chevrolet Corvette. It is basically the same as the Monogram version, but like the Camaro you built, the decals are expanded. Revell Germany kits are just awesome. Thanks for sharing a build of this wonderful well engineered kit with us. Your videos are well appreciated. I’m still looking for a hpiguys T-shirt to proudly wear, and a sticker to place on my model toolbox. I totally understand the issues with taxes, but you will make enough money that the taxes won’t be an issue.
This is one of your best builds ever, IMO. This is a weirdly equipped ‘69 Z, PS, PB, tilt steering column with the standard plastic steering wheel instead of the beautiful 3-spoke wood rim wheel? Odd. things, GM washer bottles were white plastic, translucent so the fluid shows through. Also that steering wheel was all-black. One of Revells best kits ever…
I wish it would get cold enough to snow here in my hometown of Cocoa Beach, Florida. It's 71° here but suppose to get some rain and colder weather tomorrow but it's Florida so who knows what is going to happen.
@@hpiguy let's trade for a little while hahahahs, I have to warn you though because the summer heat and humidity will melt your brain. Maybe that's why we are always in the news doing something stupid
the designers never have as a rule done that, and MOST cars out there HAVE power steering when we were young, we took all of that off because it robbed horsepower but now gas and oil is expensive, AND WE'RE OLD, WE can see the reasoning in having it all on the car
Nice video. Buy I do like the way they put dom on the box. Wasn't this car on fast n furious 2 which he wasn't in. Anyway saw a real one at a car show. Really nice cameros not common here anyway let alone one of those.
i have a bunch of kits that go back to the 60's my uncle gave me a lot of kits from when he was a kid i put some together but then i got into real cars and stop building kits still have most of them left . i put a b-24 together and put a light in the bomber bay for a pool table light
Hello I've been watching your videos for a while now, an inspired me to do this size of cars so I purchased the Revell 68 chevelle, 69 yenko camero f&f, 68 charger, built the chevelle no problems just the camero having issues with the inside engine bay fitting a couple of parts as the instructions aren't very clear
@@jasonrothgeb6071 - no, it’s a Revell kit. Like Chris replied, different model - I think his was a Revell Germany product and mine was definitely Revell USA, thus a different mix of parts.
@@Wild-Dad What is the copyright date on the kit, and what does the box art look like? This kit was first released in 1990 and there have been many different releases over the years. Z-28, Pace Car Edition, Baldwin Motion, Yenko and on and on. I love learning about all of them.
@@jasonrothgeb6071 - the date on the model box is 2016 with Revell's Elm Grove address in Illinois. As thought I can't include a photo of the box top. My best description is Fast and Furious logo "official movie merchandisr" diagonal at the top left corner. Black, green and blue colours behind the image of the car. The colour of the car is of a dark grayish blue with white stripes on the car.
Awesome Build Chris! Looks Amazing! I have the Original version of this kit with the 302 Cross Ram set up! Yes! It is a very Beautiful and well detailed kit!
Simply amazing how you can get the decals to just slide into place. Not my experience by any means. Decals are the hardest part from my experience. So Chris, can you do a vid where you demonstrate your technique with decals? I think it would be very helpful myself. ok I get it, it's not what your channel is all about. Just askin. 🙂Your models always come out spectacular. Love your work.
Thanks! I've demonstrated it in dozens and dozens of videos. Wet the decal and slide it off. It really is that simple. If they aren't sliding easy, you aren't letting them soak long enough and not using enough water or decal solvent on the model. Try one drop of dish soap in your warm water dish next time and give the decals a minute to soak. Enjoy!
@@hpiguy I bet that's what my problem is, I'm not letting them soak long enough and when I get them on the model they're very hard to move and I end up tearing them. When I've tried Microset the decals have disintegrated, shattered. I don't know why, maybe it was the decals themselves in those cases or again I didn't let them soak long enough. I should make a point to test it on one that is less significant off the sheet first before using it on the more important decals. Thanks for the tip!
That is a truly awesome color! Sorry to get off subject, but do, or perhaps know anyone that might have or make side view mirrors for the 67-69 Chevrolets? Camaro, Chevelle, Impalas? I’m building a 67 Camaro and I’ve searched all I know how, but I’m not familiar with enough builders to know who really to ask. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
This kit is at its base the same as their Z28, their Baldwin motion or their Copo. The convertible is the same kit to some degree as well. A solid kit, built it once, then built its convertible variant. Right now swapping the 396 of the convertible (another convertible) into the hardtop, also have another Z28 that's been around for over 15 years that I need to build (lol) and the kitbash of the convertible I used the 396 with a 2010 Camaro (trying to do a restomod-ish car with this).
Very nice build!! What color blue is that?? I’m finishing a 53 Studebaker. Has been a blast. Painted it Metallic Apple Green. It’s probably the coolest color I have used.
I only have one question about this kit. am building the same one, and on the decals for the dash it shows the three gauge decal you cut in half but where does it go there's no place to put it.
Is the brush on glue a new thing you are doing? I don’t recall u using that before. Is it messy? What type is it? How is the bond? I’d love to know more. Amazing build by the way. You make it look so easy!
Liquid glues usually brush on or you can use a syringe applicator. I haven't used the thick tube glue since I was a kid but a lot of people still like it.
I think people think just because the old classic white can Rustoleums are high gloss and thick enamel that everything they make is. If the 2X primers and 2X paints were regular enamels they would not dry in 20 minutes. Either they are more thin enamels or they aren't enamel at all. Either way, they dry super fast for me and I lay anything over them without issues for hundreds of kits now.
The blue is just too sweet ANOTHER ONE OUT OF THE PARK Chris
Great model, great music that’s the way it Ought to be😊
For me, this is the most hot and yet, the sweetest Camaro of all times. Chris, you've created a masterpiece.
I know you're a "chill guy" but MINUS SEVEN - you've made your point, come inside and warm yourself by the crumpling cellophane (fake fire on radio shows). You've inspired me to return to models.

Nice seeing the building of the kit now.
New Revell kits are so much fun to build . They are engineered very well.
I really liked watching you put it together. It was different but, nice to see you do it. Thank you
Nice build - love the color of that car. Thanks again.
Thanks!
I really liked the fit-up & subassembly portion of the review. It was nice to see more of the assembly of the model.
Thanks, I'm trying to add more of that as I go.
In my opinion, one of the best kits, Revell had made. I love it and built it a couple times.
Well built! Keep up your work Chris. Happy new year 😉
I just got the 1969 camero RS from hobby lobby, cant wait to build it! I like your color selection, it looks sharp!
Take some sandpaper and sand tires for a look like some miles have been put on them . nice kit 👍👏
wow those Revell Germany manuals are superb
good job on the model
Thanks!
I am down state from you and winter is a great time to be creative such as modeling. Modeling is an artform/creative outlet. I enjoy your videos.
Yes!
Always an inspiration. I really admire the way you build models. Regards from Brasil.
A nice build perfect color
I think so too!
Can't go wrong with a '69 Yenko Camaro!!
Very nice build. Nice job Chris
Thanks for stopping by!
I remember the last Yenko Camaro I saw on here was an old wrecked one - love the factory fresh restored look of this!
Yup, the AMT kit I roached out, so this one I wanted to do newish.
Nice! I liked the rusted crusted one you did but personally I prefer this one. Good job.

Bondene is my preferred glue, modelroundup.com carries it.
Question how can you not get checking cracking with the blue lacquer over enamel primers. thanks Tom
I think people think just because the old classic white can Rustoleums are high gloss and thick enamel that everything they make is.
If the 2X primers and 2X paints were regular enamels they would not dry in 20 minutes. Either they are more thin enamels or they aren't enamel at all.
