Hi to everyone,

I want to introduce you my little Mod. 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396

This is a modification of 10304 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 set.

I really liked the original set, but I wanted an all black SS version for myself, so I made it.
As soon as I saw the set, I immediately noticed the wrong angle of steering column and corrected it. LEGO keeps releasing 18+ sets with lots of visible parts in bright colors that I never liked. I tried my best to replace these parts with more suitable ones. And of course wide aggressive tires always look better :)

I made high resolution instructions which exactly repeats steps numbers from original instructions, so you can easily compare if you want to. Obviously, some steps have a different number and colors of parts.

Modifications include:
- Steering column with better angle (more realistic)
- Detailed door panels
- Wide tires for a sportier look
- Side markers
- Exhaust pipes had to be replaced due to tire width
- All visible bright colors are changed to black or dark grey
- Tinted windshields, black grille, tiled floor, more realistic cups on wheels
- Custom Vector Graphic stickers

I made two PDFs (Stickers): A4 size for EU and Letter size for US. They need to be printed and cut by yourself.

Thank you!

This looks very good but I think the hood is too flat and makes the car look, not quite right.

It's square on all sides :) The hood has a slight angle, maybe 3mm
