NHRA drag car they sponsor on display out in front of the Revells main building 1973 or 74.

Fate gave me this movie in the Youtube lottery, eight views in three days is far too little so I spread it further on MCF.

Wow, this is great - really puts you right there and then. I hadn't realized Revell had sponsored all those cars at the same time.

The description on the video is perfect, too: "Sometime back in 1973 or 74 I was riding home from my local BMX riding spot. My way home took me past the headquarters for the Revell model company when they were still located in Venice Ca. In those days Revell sponsored a whole bunch of big name NHRA drag racing teams Dragsters and funny cars. They built and sold ultra accurate and detailed models of them all. On This particular day they were having an open house and had every NHRA drag car they sponsor on display out in front of the main building. After picking my jaw off of the ground I rode home as fast as I could and came back with my 8mm movie camera. this is what I came away with."

Thank you for sharing this! Seeing this reminds me again that I really need to build Tony Nancy's beautiful Revell-liner!

This is awesome! Wish they would’ve made a model of every car they sponsored like for example the schumacher wonder wagon vega. Even though you can find decals for a lot of those cars now and build them but just to have the box art would be really cool
