I've never seen or heard of that kit. Looks like a great project!

Kewl! Did you alter the hood scoop? It looks different in the Before and After pics. In the After pic, the front end of the scoop looks more like a '67 Stinger, instead of like a big NACA duct. I like it, by the way.

Looking good! I have one of those Vettes still sealed.

Sure wish I could afford the Tom Daniels Vette. Seems like they are crazy money now.

Snake, thought you were the Corvette guru on here, lol.

I'm pretty sharp on '63-'67s, a bit less so on '68-'73s. I quit building model cars around 1970 (going back to airplanes, and then, on to Life) and didn't come back to them until the mid-'80s, so I don't really know much about what Monogram was doing with model cars in the '70s. I take it this was a modified reissue of the original TD California Vette?
