aurfalien Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Hi,I've seen 2 versions of the 2 in 1 68' Vette Roadster, a Revell and a Revell-Monogram.Which is newer and can I assume the newer has better tooling/quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbox55 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Same kit. Only difference is the box, and perhaps the color of the plastic it's molded in. The Revell version was the first release, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisPflug Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 The original releases from the 90's were molded in red plastic and included parts to build an L88 convertible. The later "2 in 1" releases should be in white plastic and include a small block hood with cutout line on the underside and custom parts including wheels, chrome sidepipes, blower with scoop, and Moroso valve covers which were labeled both "Revell" and "Revell-Monogram" but should be identical. Seems that there was also a more recent "Revell" releaseAlso are "Stars and Stripes" and "Rebel" racing versions based on this kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aurfalien Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Not to hijack my own thread but man the Baldwin Motion Vette is insane! https://www.google.com/search?q=baldwin+motion+corvette&biw=1440&bih=728&tbm=isch&imgil=tZ2sqnHVWr0zXM%3A%3BzE2h5Vm4YhNXAM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.icollector.com%252F1971-Baldwin-Motion-Corvette-Tribute_i8588738&source=iu&pf=m&fir=tZ2sqnHVWr0zXM%3A%2CzE2h5Vm4YhNXAM%2C_&usg=__EG5Stra7a9LKv0bNzNUS-UdIcCg%3D&ved=0CCYQyjdqFQoTCKjQtbmgp8gCFQaiiAod8TIJYg&ei=m0kQVuiWMIbEogTx5aSQBg#imgrc=tZ2sqnHVWr0zXM%3A&usg=__EG5Stra7a9LKv0bNzNUS-UdIcCg%3Dhttps://www.google.com/search?q=baldwin+motion+corvette&biw=1440&bih=728&tbm=isch&imgil=tZ2sqnHVWr0zXM%3A%3BzE2h5Vm4YhNXAM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.icollector.com%252F1971-Baldwin-Motion-Corvette-Tribute_i8588738&source=iu&pf=m&fir=tZ2sqnHVWr0zXM%3A%2CzE2h5Vm4YhNXAM%2C_&usg=__EG5Stra7a9LKv0bNzNUS-UdIcCg%3D&ved=0CCYQyjdqFQoTCKjQtbmgp8gCFQaiiAod8TIJYg&ei=m0kQVuiWMIbEogTx5aSQBg#imgrc=yNAgfBYaLOTTUM%3A&usg=__EG5Stra7a9LKv0bNzNUS-UdIcCg%3D Too bad the Revell kitted version didn't share the manifold, fenders, tires or wheels. This car in an accurate 1/24-1/25 version would be marvelous! Edited October 3, 2015 by aurfalien Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
