THIS conversation is still going on. Many here are new to the board and would never see these old threads.

Google is our friend.

Pretty cool/ I have this one as well

22 automotive kits ? I see many more aircraft and ship models under the Advent name.

Thinking on building one finally and looking in my stash, there are quite a few. Wonder how many and what are the differences?

Model Tee kits from Revell Just a little bit of change frome kit to kit.

Time for another reissue of some "Tee Buckets"

a few others . . .

and really weird . . .

Some one did

Really only interested in the early years 1958 - 1964. I had a 1:1 '60 El Camino with the dark headers on the bottom of the first picture. They turned out right into some big side pipes.

Best thread ever.

Beautiful, Bob, what's your secret ?

Do any of the '58- '65 Chevy "X" frame kits have these frame correct headers ? They turn out following the frame to meet the stock exhaust system.

What;s a good source ?

Interesting how many automotive engines from the sixties era were basically the same on the outside with varying cubic inch displacements on the inside. Of course there were other identifying factors , I.E. dip stick placement on the 409 vs 348. Small block Chevy 265-400 Buick Nailhead -401 Big Block Chevy 396 - 454 Pontiac 326 - 455 Ok . I don't have all the cubic inch displacements down, but you can see what I'm getting at.

New decals and box art and good to go ?

Well that's where I'm at. I remember the graphics being kind of a dull finish now they are really shinny. The old ones would just about come off with just playing with them or a little rubbing.

It irked me.

Used to be able to remove the unwanted graphics with alcohol. Not sure it will work now with their shiney graphics. Any ideas? i want to keep the base paint intact.

Looks like you've got three to chose from, all pretty good from my experience. The two MPC kits are different.
