Excellent! If that's true, that means the Gremlin is coming back!

Here is what I did to fix the horrible hood situation. I glued the front end on, opened the hood and added "stockish" trim. It still needs a little tweaking and clean up, but I am pretty happy with it. Certainly not prototypical for stock or hot rod, but it works better than the flip nose.

If only it looked like that box art! That is awesome! I guess you would have to use the later issue Revell hardtop kit and the gasser parts and decals that are in this reissue to make it happen.... might be worth it, that is really cool!

It looks like Revell is reissuing the custom version, if you check the thread about Revell 2022, it is listed there.

With all the talk about this kit being reissued, I decided to dig out this stalled project and give it a second look. It a 70's issue, Monogram, black version. The main reasons it stalled were the decals silvered and the scoop cracked and has a chip in the paint. The floor pan doesn't fit correctly and the front wheels don't line up in the wheel wells also.

I only have one of the first issue of this, but the new version looks like it is a lot better with the Duvall windshield and more traditional interior. I am in for a few, just for the parts.

Nice job!

That's really nice! Great stance, engine and interior.

Nice job! You nailed the look you were going for!

Here are some of mine.....

Looks good! I like it!

Holy cow! Super job! Excellent work on the graphics and details.

Great job! Nice to see a stock one now and again!

I am looking forward to getting one of these, the box art is excellent!

Nice job so far! Not to be nitpicky, but the car is a Fairlane Cobra, not a Torino CJ. The Cobra was supposed to be a low buck entry level muscle car with a high-performance big block like the Plymouth Roadrunner. The AMT box always calls it a Torino Cobra, as do many others, but that is a misnomer. The 1969 Torino and Cobra were 2 different models.

There are various levels of models displayed on this site, this is probably one of the very best! It transcends what we mere mortals mostly do here. Outstanding in every way!

I saw them too. When I went to order a set it occurred to me that it is only a few bucks more to get another Mooneyes dragster, that includes an engine and other good parts, so that's what I did! ?

Very nice! Really accurate details. I remember a lot of the later ones ('83-'87) in that color combination.

Wow! This is super cool! Great color and paint, super interior work and the body modifications are nice without being too gaudy.

Great job on a hard to build kit! That's a great color and the engine is a nice upgrade from the one in the kit.

Did the red issue have SS454 on the valve covers instead of the SS427 on the black one? I have seen pics that seem to suggest that, I have never had the red kit myself. It would be nice if they included both in the reissue.

Wow! That's cool! You don't see his '63 very often! Great job!

FWIW, I found these on Ebay, 1/24 resin cast. I am pretty sure they are the slots from the '66 Malibu. The seller's name is forward_resin. I have no connection at all, but I have bought a number of items and they are good quality, and the service was very good.

That is a stunner! Great color, nice details and super job on the vinyl top!

Cool! Love the scoop, wheels and tires. Your choices work perfectly......
