I'd go with the annual...I've got a couple of different reissues, and I don't think any of them have the "427" on the scoop because all of them have small-block engines.

I tend to agree with you because of the look of the paint and the decals. I THINK I have at least one reissue with the 427 still on it, but I could be wrong about that.

Bench Seat 1: Revell '60 Chevy Impala

 

Bucket Seat 1: MPC '79 Nova Squad Rod

1 is a '64 or '65 Lincoln.

I think you are correct on 2

3 is possibly an AMT '70-'72 Chevelle but more likely same year Monte Carlo

4 is MPC '67 GTO

5 is JoHan '77-'79 Coupe DeVille

The black bucket seat looks like it's from one of the black issues of the MPC '79 Nova

[StevenGuthmiller]

The bench seat looks to be a '59 or '60 Chevy Impala.

The steering wheel is definitely a custom part, but I have no idea what kit it came from.

As Steven said, the steering wheel is a custom part ,, from the '63 Galaxie.

That console looks to have a Chevy SS emblem so I looked it up ,, looks like it's from a '65 Impala

Dash #2 is Jo-Han '69 Ambassador. It was also included in Jo-Han's 1969 Rebel and 1970 Rebel Machine kits.

Think bench seat #1 is Revell '60 Impala. The kit had decals for the upholstery patterns.

[Casey]

Thanks, guys. I updated the ID for those identified.  

[Casey]

How about a Goodyear x.75 x 15(?) Safety All Weather Tire? Any idea which kit this might have come from? One of the Ertl ariculture kits, maybe? I do have to Goodyear Implement tires from the Ertl John Deere plow kit, so maybe not.

That's a Jo-Han funny car front tire.

Thanks, Mark. Were these used across the board in all of the JO-HAN F/C kits?

[Mark]

Yes.  Polar Lights did a pretty good counterfeit of that tire for their funny car kits.

[Casey]

Good info, Mark, thanks. 

[Casey]

Can anybody identify these wheels/wheel covers? Both are Chevrolet, and my guess is the first wheel (first two images) is from an MPC '73 Caprice based on the ugly brown plastic color. The second wheel appears to be a four-slot steel wheel with a poverty cap. Second wheel also has a metal axle mount stub on the backside.

First wheel is indeed '73 Caprice.  The second one is AMT '67 Camaro (annual kit; dog dish cap on steel rim).

[Casey]

Thanks, Mark. 

How about these Uniroyal Fleetmaster Triple Tread tires? Solid vinyl, and they look like 1/32 scale tractor trailer tires:

 

AMT/Ertl used these Goodyear tires in the 1/32 Ford CL-9000 kit, so not from that kit, but maybe earlier kits?:

I've never seen those Uniroyal tires.  Notice the hacked-out center "web" in each tire.  I'd suspect those aren't AMT because of those.  If they were AMT, they'd probably have molded them without that, more like the Goodyears.

I've got a bunch of the Goodyear tires...they'd make passable 1/25 scale medium-duty tires from the looks of it...
