Ok guys, I need help. A friend of mine wants me to build a replica of his '67 Chevelle. What I need to know is, which one on the market is the best one to build for a stock Chevelle. It's his street machine probably worth $45-50 thousand so want to do it justice. Also, if anyone has one at a reasonable price, let me know....
Thanks in advance for any info...

About the only one available is the Revell "Streetburner" or "Go Muscle" (same kit, just reboxed), however I believe both of them are Pro-Street versions. There are several on Ebay for $15-25. You might get one of these and put it on a Lindberg '66 Chevelle chassis, then you could build the leftovers into a '66 pro-street.
Thanks guys! Think I might go with the Revell 396 version. Looks like it would a good one to build....

I agree, AMT has a pretty good one, it has been simplified, somewhat. It will make a good looking model,. But,....the Revell kit is better.
Thanks guys, I'm going to take a little motorcycle ride down to Palm Harbor today. There's a hobby shop there that has a ton of stuff. He's a little high priced but, so is E-Bay when ya pay freight. I missed a big swap last week where I probably could have found what I wanted fairly reasonable. My wife had other plans and,,,,well.....happy wife is a happy life...lol. I'll let ya'll know later....Did ya catch "ya'll", I'm a southerner now.......

Hey Rett
The Revell kit is a really nice kit and if you are try to build it stock all the stuff is there.
Also us southern's pronounce that y'all ;D

"y'all" , gotcha. I'll try to remember, lol. Hobby shop didn't have one either. Ordered on off E-Bay, $27.56 including shipping.....I can live with that.
Thanks for the info guys....I'll post as I go with this one....

:) Welcome to the South, Rett. Jon is right. Get that apostrophe ( ' ) right after the y and you got it. lol It will be official when we can get you on the " 3 G Southern Diet. " Grits, grease, and gravy.
I hope all goes well with your Chevelle, and I am sure it will.
Well, grits and gravy definitely, grease, not so much.....lol
Rett
:) Me too. At least, I try. Have a great day.
took me a bit, but have learned to like grits.....started mostly by going to Cracker Barrel.....
now have to rely on Quaker 5 minute grits.....
