I'm working on restoring an old MPC Cosma Ray (Round2 please reissue!). It would make sense to rob the MPC Vette for parts but the Revell 1967 is a lot more common to get. Does anyone know how close these two 1967's are in size?  Can the frames be swapped fairly easily? The MPC is one of their best kits of the era. How does it compare to the more modern Revell tooling?  

Thanks!

Mike, I'd look for the Recent Round2/MPC Streaker Vette for the parts.

I linked to the Nightstalker/Streaker Vette & Cosma Ray instructions so you can compare parts.

Looks like the Chassis and Engine share many parts.

Well, I happen to have the following in the stash (unbuilt) so I could do a check out of what may or may not fit.  What pieces are you specifically looking for?  BTW, the MPC is in my To Sell stash
