1969 Trans Am Camaro Model Kit

 

Penske Camaro Model

 

 

A Trans Am Racing 1968 - 1969 Camaro. I think at the time I had seen someone do a model of this car in a magazine. While they used a large scale model, I used a 1/25 scale one.


The Penske decals are Fred Cady. The wheels, not sure what kit they came from, but look like a Minilite 1960's style. I made modifications throughout the kit.

Overall, I think it is the color combination that got me to want to build this car. ( I used Testors French Blue and Testors Yellow.)

The wheels I gave a coat of Testors dull coat so they wouldn't be shiny, though I don't know what kit they came from.

This particular model came with a cross intake I believe, with two carbs, a very good setup.

  • Camaro Restoration Handbook: Ground-Up or Sectional Restoration Tips and Techniques for 1967 to 1981 Camaros. All Models Included - This book provides a very complete and easily used reference on Camaro part numbers, options packages, and tips for show-quality restorations. It greatly aids planning on a "real" restoration (that is, returning the car to its original factory condition), providing enough information to identify virtually every part in the car. For example, it provides decoding information for the numeric stamp on Camaro transmissions (which is otherwise unintelligible). It also provides a large number of B&W photos and diagrams of parts and assemblies.
  • Camaro: Untold Secrets 1967-1969 - This book is all and *only* about Chevrolet's efforts in the old Trans-America road race series. As you may know, the desire to be competitive in Trans-Am led to Chevrolet developing the Z/28 option package in the first place. Hood induction, twin carburetors on the 302, chassis set up, and the famous JL-1 (SP?) four-wheel disk brakes are all covered in great detail.
  • Trans-Am: The Pony Car Wars 1966-1972 - This photographic retrospective follows the Trans-Am series from its inception until the end of the 1971 season, when significant rule changes forced the withdrawal of North American manufacturer teams. The period signified the golden age of the pony muscle car.
  • Vintage American Road Racing Cars, 1950-1970 - “It’s exceedingly difficult for me to understand how a book so wonderfully comprehensive can be so very entertaining. How could such a book crammed with hard facts and cold figures and exact measurements be such a magic-carpet ride back to the halcyon days of American road racing? I will just answer my own question if you don’t mind. ‘Let Harold Pace and Mark Brinker loose to research and write Vintage American Road Racing Cars 1950-1970 and you have a real masterwork.’SAH Journal – for the Society of Automotive Historians, October/November 2005”.
  • Penske Racing Team: 40 Years of Excellence - From its modest beginnings behind a Philadelphia-area watchmaker's shop some 40 years ago, the Penske Racing Team, more than any other organization, has influenced the development, growth and direction of auto racing in the United States as both a sport and a business. Led by former race driver turned "Fortune 500" business mogul Roger Penske, this team has won more than 250 major auto races around the world, captured 19 national championships (including 12 Indy-Car titles), and have enjoyed success in all forms of racing—Indy-Cars, sports cars, Formula-1, endurance racing and NASCAR. Penske Racing Team...40 Years of Excellence documents the fascinating history of this unique organization, focusing on the talented drivers and innovative engineering that have been responsible for the team's spectacular and enduring success. It also highlights the key events that have defined American motorsports during this timeframe; including the rise and fall of U.S. sports car racing in the 1960s and 1970s; the politics of the USAC-CART split in the late 1970s; the CART-IRL battle that unfolded 20 years later; and the phenomenal transformation of NASCAR from its moonshine roots into the mainstream commercial phenomenon that it is today.
