I recently bought their Lamborghini Diablo kit, the first time I've one since they first came out. I'm looking forward to doing something with it.

We went back today for some stocking stuffers and I almost got this one. I assume its the old Revell kit? 

Nope its actually an old AMT (truly a MPC kit. The original edition was in 1964 with the tudor sedan, the body was emedietly replaced with the woody and truck in the next release. Its not a bad kit, but just be warned, the frame is one with the fenders, but thats not a big set back at all. I was at my LHS recently and they had this kit for $40 (I dont buy kits from them because there so darn expensive).

Heres a rebuilder I scored of the original issue of this kit with the sedan body (I dont think the Halibrand wheels are in it anymore though).
