As some of you know, in addition to my Challenger, I have also been lucky enough to once have owned a Chevelle. Since then I've been a bit of a Chevelle collector. The 64 was the only one not in my collection and I was excited when it was announced they were making this kit.
The kit itself sits in the "at least you tried" category. The body looks great, it has headlight lenses, a side mirror, and decals. All things I complain about in these kits. However, it kinda breaks down after that. It's got an opening hood, but NO ENGINE! Come on, really? Why bother? The interior tub is OK, but not great. The decals, are mostly useless. They either disappear when applied, or they're too small to fit over the script. The only ones I could use were for the dash, caps, and a couple emblems. Still, the model came out looking alright, and it's not like it's for competitions; just my private collection.
