10543Modeler Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Anybody know of a stock hood with the bulge for the big block engine? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 The Revell/Monogram 67 convertible kit has the big block hood. Red car on the box. Don't recall seeing it in resin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I've heard there's a resin company that makes the hood I'm looking for but I've also heard they're very un-Reliable.

Snake45 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 As Mike says, that one issue of the Monogram '65 Vette has the hood you want, as well as a correct engine and body emblems for a 396. This hood will not fit any 1/25 kit. The MPC '66 Vette kit had a fairly accurate '65-'66 bulged hood that will fit the AMT kits and the Revell 1/25 Corvettes with a little work. But good luck finding one. I have three but two of them had already been cut opened for the blower when I got them (on glue bombs). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10543Modeler Posted February 10, 2022 Author Share Posted February 10, 2022 No the Monogram kit # 2724 only has the base small block hood but has a big block engine. I was hoping someone knew of an aftermarket resin 65/66 hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10543Modeler Posted February 11, 2022 Author Share Posted February 11, 2022 Yes, that's the hood I want. I didn't know there was a version with it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
