Yenko Stinger Camaro

As requested on the regular board... Built as a fun quick build in one week, this is the R/M '69 Z/28. Out of the box per IPMS National rules.
Only addition is some custom made decals.

Not to be confused with a Yenko Super Coupe. Think "sports" car instead of "drag" car. - Mark

looks good like the realism in it!

very clean build

I feel sick. That is just way too good. Makes me feel like a right farty pants no-skill. That's probably because i am though.

Was the stinger camaro an actual option? I've never heard of a "stinger" camaro...Only corvairs.

Thanks,
William

Normally I associate Yenko Stinger with Corvair Monza coupes, but this looks good too. I love the graphics and the subtle weathering on the engine.

:1:

There is no doubt this car is an awesome build i was curious as to whether a car existed like that 1:1 scale. I'm a camaro fanatic and wanted to know if one had slipped my knowledge. Congrats on the build it looks amazing.

realistic! great build!

Thanks all. It is a fantasy phantom. I went on the premise of a Yenko road racing version like the Corvairs were, sort of a cross over car, which would have used a small block, instead of the big block like drag Super Coupes. I liked the corvair scheme and adapted it to the Camaro and made up a logo incorporating the Yenko shield. The gauges I used are from a '69 Corvette, "off the shelf GM items". All parts are GM of 1969. It was just a fun whim I built for a common kit contest held last Labor Day, I did it out of the box so I'd finish it quickly. - Mark

What might be cool is getting a Z28 model and building a Motion performance TT350. They made VERY few but Motion Performance had several models available besides the phase III and one was a twin turbo small block and there were a few others.

Holy crap man that is a whack paintjob but an awesome model!!

Amazing! What a beauty; very tricky too, the paint work makes it look far more detailed than box stock. Gorgeous! This model must have taken you months!

Built as a fun quick build in one week....

Oh. Well, in that case...

So realistic, just........GREAT !!!

What did you use for the lettering on the Radiator Hose?

This is incredible. Excellent job!

Super clean. Great work on the undercarriage.
