I like your mods. I just painted covers silver.

I'd own it......different.

I myself ordered the wrong part......but the wrong parts were so nice I was OK with them!!!! I just re-ordered the correct parts. I place these parts and service up there with the best. thx

Just a thanks to Chuck for all the info. mine will not be here for a few days but I have wanted to see a production kit for over a year!!! I am lucky enough that my want for this car is blinding me from all the 'warts' others see.....I am happy to have this car in plastic.

Thanks Chuck.....it looks good to me.......I'll have to see if a 72 front clip will match up well. Another movie car I found.......

Agreed.....with the somewhat simple rear suspension altering the 'spring' post should be easy. And it may be a while before V2 comes around....

Thank you Sir. That rear shot is great......looks like a 72 rear bumper may go in easy.......add a 72 rear roll pan....mod the S&H chassis........start of a 73 and a 72 notch.......again thx PS Tamiya silver will kill the red in one good coat......my Bill Elliott car will get said treatment.

NO damping here!!!! to each his own........I will bet they sell a TON of them....the true goal. And I'm helping....got 6 coming...for a start!

You the man Chuck........one more request???? 3/4 front and rear body shot??? Want to see how hard it will be to fit a 72 rear bumper to body.

I myself don't care WHY people are buying the kit......as long as it sells!!!!! And when I say 'rumor' on the sales.......I know for a fact how well pre-orders have gone.....I just can;t say how...... I told Revell a long time ago they would be surprised how well this kit will do. I am more often wrong on picks for new tools.....but this one I knew would be good. Wait until some get built!!! (and not as the S&H version)

I think it's a little more than S&H demand...... The fact that this car was the first NASCAR Cup ride for folks like Bill Elliott and DE Sr, raced the 24 hours Le Mans and can be the basis for other builds is driving sales. I'll be building a Big Lebowski Torino among 6-7 others.

RUMOR has it........the pre-orders are way up on this kit....so there is a demand for American 70's era cars.....hope we get a 77 Thunderbird out of this tool.......it'd sell even better.

You are right....it's as if it time traveled from the 1980's Monogram shops.....not a bad thing really. thx!!

Agree.....doubt any tooling was done for a die cast....but I bet some planning was done toward it back in the day. thx

thank you....yes! can we see the hood hinge set up and decals??? plez!

A long time ago when this kit was announced I thought it may have had it's roots in the die cast world. Even if it was only an idea during that period Revell was doing so many TV and movie related vehicles. Revell's 58 Chevy comes to mind. I always felt it was going to be in the American Graffiti line as Steve/Toad car. I myself can't wait to see and buy my own copies. BTW yor pics are not working for me.

I love my 'looser' AMC car........How many car shows do I go to and NOT see look-a-likes??? Anytime someone needs a 1/1 to do scale drawings......come on down!!!!!

That is a HOT topic in the model railroad world. I HATE graffiti so in the little world I control I have NONE!!!! Too clean??? Yep I weather them too......

Well since you asked...........( i wasn't on my home PC really) Top - 86 foot Auto Parts carrier. Thrall well Intermodal car Same car finished with my decals. I worked for First Union at one time....so model their cars. Also some wooded older cars.....(wood cars made from plastic.....)

Very nice work!!!! I model O scale too and build my own cars too.

Nice finish and stance.....

Revell will SHOW them at Toledo.........for sale DEC

Not with any AMT KIT........same era....same idea....very different kit.

One of the kits Revell did during an era that was less than great. This kit shared 99% with a like Chevy. VERY simple and somewhat generic details. Like the Mustang/Capri kit of the same era.....better kits out there. MIGHT be a OK start to a full on IMSA racer.......but lots of work needed.

All fun!!! A Matador is..........different.....and I'm, as my wife says, am different.....perfect fit!
