[oldrevellfan]

Recieve mine today (thanks to Revell Germany and my local hobby shop !)

 

It have the 32 Ford grille, but not mention in the instruction !

[Greg Myers]

Is there a grill insert on the chrome tree ?

[oldrevellfan]

Yes there is the 32' grillle insert on the chrome trim with the 30 Ford grille.

[Matt T.]

YESSS! Thanks for the update! 

[Modelbuilder Mark]

Fantastic!  I cannot believe it is out, and in someone's hands, yet there is very little marketing around here in the states. 

 

[oldrevellfan]

Neither in Europe, and even it still not in sale on Revell germany site !

[OldNYJim]

It's back! ?

Supposed to be the 60s version of women's shorts. The viewing angle makes them look puffier than they were in reality.

Depends.

I think they are supposed to be the "Short Shorts" from the Hit Song of the period. Bad Painting though.

IMHO, It is actually pretty poor, especially for a Big 3 kit release. Revell's cover art paintings have been poor to truly awful for the last decade or so. 

[Smoke Wagon]

WILSON!!!

By this point in time the then young lady in the short shorts may be doing those Depends commercials that you see on TV. Man I miss those times.

As of this morning, the Revell '30A Model A Five Window Coupe hot rod is in stock and available for order from Spotlight Hobbies.  I ordered mine this morning!   TIM

Picked up mine at the LHS yesterday (same day as the Mooneyes? What are the odds?)

Sure, i have several of the first issue roadster, and one of the first issue coupe with the shrink wrap still intact on my shelf. But i want to support Revell for brining this back to market. I had two on hold, but left one there for someone else. I will buy more when i have to opportunity. It's a gold mine of a parts kit.

Someone needs to sit down and do a side-by-side comparison with the first issue to see if there truly are an differences in the actual tooling itself (other than the obvious swap of the engines)

[Justin Porter]

Came in as part of my stock order so I can completely confirm they're real and should be in any local hobby shop out there this week.

[tbill]

I preordered 6 of them from model roundup, can’t wait to get one on the bench ……

[stinkybritches]

I received 2 from Mega Hobby a couple of days ago.

I received a sealed kit from an eBay vendor today. This kit has the chrome engine parts tree for the Chevrolet engine!

It seems the only replacement request is thru Revell in Germany. I filled out the request, and got a note indicating no replacement parts were being shipped to the USA due to COVID restrictions. However, I received an almost immediate email response confirming the request, but remarking that it could take "some time" to fill it.

Has anyone else experienced the incorrect engine chrome tree in their kits?

Has anyone requested replacement parts from Revell recently?

Mine has the appropriate nailhead chrome sprue. 
I recently ordered parts from Revell (this summer) and I used the email contact on the instructions. They said it could take 6-8 weeks, but I had my part in less than three.
