Bills72sj Posted July 2, 2023 Posted July 2, 2023 While I do have the 1994 release in my stash, I am glad to see it come out. Especially the big decal sheet. 2
KWT Posted July 2, 2023 Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) heck yeah!... It looks like they're slowly going through all that Monogram goodness! Edited July 2, 2023 by KWT
stavanzer Posted July 2, 2023 Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) Didn't this kit out come once with some Faux '68 Parts, to make a "Street Machine" with engine options and an extra set of wheels? Had a Yellow Box or Yellow car on the box? Edited July 2, 2023 by stavanzer

Had a Yellow Box or Yellow car on the box? Yep, just a "street machine", since they didn't bother to tool up correct '68 interior parts. 1
Rob Hall Posted July 3, 2023 Posted July 3, 2023 Nice kit. I built the first release when it first came out, molded in an off-white.

tim boyd Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Built from the original kit not long after its release. Wheels from the Monogram "Bad Actor" IIRC, and pseudo Verdero Green using Pactra spray paints. I believe I may have swapped the air cleaner for the updated part released in one of the later reissues of this kit....TB 1
stavanzer Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Beautiful Build, Tim. Another example of why you are one of the most talented Muscle Car builders. Hits all the right notes. Stock Finish, Day 2 Wheels, great looks.

It looks like they're slowly going through all that Monogram goodness! ”all that Monogram goodness!” yes! The question is if Monogram is the new Jo-Han. In the absence of old pristine Jo-Han you can still find old Monogram and also new white ones. In addition, they are easy to build. Edited July 7, 2023 by Ulf Texting
