I can't offer much help but trying to keepThe hobby alive Edited July 10, 2017 by Iroc crazy No longer need advice
Daddyfink Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 (edited) Yes, they are the same kit. The only update has been the Baldwin version a couple of years ago Edited July 7, 2017 by Daddyfink
Snake45 Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 It's 1/24 scale and many--including myself--feel that the body shape is not the best. But it IS a fairly easy, painless build, and comes with a lot of good parts.
Iroc crazy Posted July 7, 2017 Author Posted July 7, 2017 The 2ND one and the 4th are the two I wanted a comparisonBetween the two since the first one pictured above is discontinuedI had the 1st one as a teenager young and ignorant now I've gottenFond of building them stock but if chrome side pipes are offered likeThe 1st one I'd use them. If the street burner series is still available I'll definitelyPick one up thank you both for your help
KWT Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 At present time, the Chevelle is not available. Except for places like eBay of course, and I think I saw one on model roundup recently. I love the Revell/Monogram kits like this, and this one happens to be my favorite. I can't remember how many I've built or how many I have in my stash.
Iroc crazy Posted July 8, 2017 Author Posted July 8, 2017 Is the street burner series of the chevelle identical to the98 issued of it known as heavy Chevy
Iroc crazy Posted July 8, 2017 Author Posted July 8, 2017 Now question is still around ?? I'll try my local hobby retailer
stavanzer Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 It was still listed at Revell.com last month. You may have to try getting it from them.
Iroc crazy Posted July 8, 2017 Author Posted July 8, 2017 So it's still in production from them ? If so excellentI'll look into it tomorrow thank you for your advice
KWT Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 It's not in production. You're gonna have to go thru eBay or the something on the web, work out a trade with somebody, or something like that.
mikemodeler Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 If you are doing a full on detailed build, then search out the kit you want. If you are doing a curbside or are not concerned about the drivetrain, then the Revell snap fast 70 Chevelle kit builds up real nice and easy.
fordf-100 Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 I had purchased the Baldwin Chevelle because the box listed it as 1/25. I thought that was a new tool. Is it the Monogram 1/24 kit with some new parts?I dont have a 1/24 Chevelle kit to compare it too. Thanks!
KWT Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 It's the 1/24 kit, misprinted to say 1/25. It has a new hood for the b/m build. Not all of the 3n1 parts are included in that kit.
Craig Irwin Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Although it's a curbside this is the best proportioned 70 Chevelle kit out there.
Iroc crazy Posted July 8, 2017 Author Posted July 8, 2017 It's not a snap tite it's a skill 2 appreciate the pictureJust the wrong kit
Dave Van Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 A decent little kit. 1/24 scale if that's an issue. I've built a few of them....and bought a few DONK issues just for parts.....at $8 each. No issues building....Normal 80's era Monogram kit.
Iroc crazy Posted July 8, 2017 Author Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) Looks similar to the 98 issue of the 70 chevelle 3n1Also known as heavy Chevy decals on rear quarter panelsRefer to the 1st picture daddyfink that one I know IS discontinued the reissue ofThe street burner series chevelle 3n1 is what I'm after thanks for your help Edited July 8, 2017 by Iroc crazy
