I am looking for info for building C2 corvette models. Amt, revell and mpc. I want to build each year if possible. I know I can just get available kits but I am wondering.. The 67 Revell kit appears to be the only full chassis kit readily available and relitivly cheap. Sure their are others but at getting at least 4, it's easier. Knowing it's 1:25 like will the chassis from 67 Revell work under Amt or Mpc bodies.

1963 Easy split window and conv

1964 not so easy

1965 not so easy Monogram has 1:24 I did buy a 1:25 from Stingray (TV show)Revell

1966 not so easy

1967 Revell fastback and conv

Mpc has some fastbacks but I want stock not dragstrip

There are many diff vettes made for various years but not really affordable $50 or higher

Is the 67 revell chassis good enough to represent all years

Yeah ,the 64,65,and 66 are the tough ones to get. A lot of them were only issued once.

I used to have every Vette from 1953 to 1993,plus pace cars. It took up a lot of room...I still have the pace cars.

The Revell '67 chassis will work fine for all years, but the big-block engine is only good for 65 through 67.

The bodies on the Revell snapper '63s are very nice and worth putting on a '67 chassis. And they're 1/25. The Monogram, now Revell, '65s and '66 including the TV Stingray are all 1/24.

Modelhaus has a lot of the unique parts for all AMT years '63 though '67--hoods, grilles, interior parts, etc. These are intended for the AMT kit but some can be adapted to convert the Revell '67.
