Casey Posted February 7, 2019 Posted February 7, 2019 (edited) TV camera from the AMT T 339 ACCELLERATOR Corvette kit: I think this is the same TV camera/parts which were last offered in the AMT Custom & Competition Parts Pack?: Edited February 9, 2022 by Casey

Must be. Also the same camera as the "Drag Strip Accessories" in the Prestige Series '63 Corvette convertible. That set included the TV camera, drag strip lights, loudspeakers, flags and the big fire extinguisher. I think those were in a separate Parts Pack sold back in the early '60s. Then they disappeared for over 20 years, and popped up in that Prestige 'Vette in 1987. Thanks for mentioning the AMT T339 Accelerator Corvette. I didn't know about that one.

Lunajammer Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 (edited) Monogram Cherry Bomb. I look at this not so much as a bonus, but part of the kit's whole unit theme. Same the other Monogram combos. Some of the bonuses in those early annuals don't seem very theme oriented and therefore more like a true "extra." Edited February 18, 2019 by Lunajammer 1

ChrisBcritter Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Nice thing was the ramps had wood grain molded into them - handy to have as stock and dry brushing would bring it out well. You could make truck flatbeds with them.

stavanzer Posted March 1, 2019 Posted March 1, 2019 I wish the tooling for THAT trailer would re-appear! Man, would that be great.

When looking at the back of the instruction sheet it pointed out by arrows what parts were included in your kit, and stated the remainder of parts can be found in other AMT Styline hardtop kits.

The parts count on the car itself is REALLY low - there might be more bonus parts than there are for the main model ?
Casey Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 So many bonuses from Revell in 1980: 1/16 scale kits, too: And 1/32:
Daddyfink Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) Wow! I can't believe how many of these kits I have that Casey just posted! In addition to these. Edited April 11, 2020 by Daddyfink
