Advent kit question


Recommended Posts

I have been offered a kit made by ADVENT - 1970 Camaro Z28 Funny Car. I have tried to get some info on this kit, but can't find any. Does anyone have any information about it - quality, parts count & fit, photo, etc?

Thanks

It is a Revell Kit, Most likely the Jungle Jim kit

and likely either a Bargain kit, or their Monthly

Kit by Mail club offering

Some of the Revell kits offered in Advent labeled boxes did bit have Chromed parts, but others did

Depends on when it was run through tooling.

Regular Revell kits that wwere considered Over-run would have had chrome

since that was already done before the Advent box was print

I had 2 of that Funny car

it is NOT an Easy/Simple build!!!

Just picked it up - it's the "Killer Camaro" Z/28 model, molded in orange. Made 1979, according to the box. Features a GM blower, Ford SOHC 427. As Dan mentioned, there are no chrome parts. All trees are either grey or orange. No driver/owner info, just Killer Camaro, so probably not based on any actual car. Not a snap-kit.

Looks interesting, we'll see...........
