I picked up a bunch of parts this weekend, and while sorting them found some intersting and/or unkown parts which I could use some help identifying.

1) Unknown hood:

2) Convertable top, possibly for the MPC Jeepster/Commando?:

3) Scoops/blisters?:

4) Front valance panel?:

5) Rear window louvers, possibly from a Revell '70s car (Monza, etc.):

6) Rear camper shell for an El Camino, possibly the 1/32-ish Lindberg kit? It's way too small to be 1/25 scale:

7) Front bumpers from '75-'77 MPC Camaros?:

8) These are definitley Monogram parts, as the wheel parts fit their Goodyear Rally GT tires...Poison Pinto maybe? I'm hoping the avocado color is the tip-off:

5) Rear window louvers, but they're awfully small:

Casey, the only one I could maybe give you a clue about are these louvres. I have seen that shape for the Trans Am type back windows. Not that specific one, but that style and shape. Maybe that could get you closer.

There was also this 1/25 '67 Camaro SS convertible body, which I'm assuming is an MPC piece?:

I found this SS hood, too, which may be AMT or MPC...but it fits very well:

# 5 the blue louvers go to the mako shark corvette and the black louvers go to the street fever corvette buy MPC

Nu# 3 are headrests, nu# 5 is the roof extension from the Tom Daniescustum street Vette by Monogram in 24th scale. The chassis with the six looks to be from the AMT 53/55 Corvette, The Camaro is an AMT original issue. Hope this helps.:lol:B):lol:

The red hood with the scoop looks to be off an MPC Jeep, the black soft top is indeed off a Jeepster, and the green parts are off the original release of Monograms 39 Chev delivery.

Thanks for the help, folks. I've got a few more pieces:

A) Dual blister windshield, I'm guessing from an early Corvette kit?:

:blink: Camaro SS grille from AMT or MPC '71-'73?:

C) '67 or '68 AMT or MPC Mustang?:

Parts134.jpg

D) Tonneau cover and front valence from early Vette?:

Parts132.jpg

E) Clear hood and T-top panels from a 1/20th Vette kit, probably MPC?:

Parts130.jpg

F) Might this be a Chevy Blue Flame six from an early Vette kit, too?

#3 picture looks to be streamlined headrests from the AMT '64 Corvette Convertible kit. I had one years ago and seem to recall those headrests.

Letter C pic looks like a '68 Mustang Shelby grille perhaps? B)

The Mustang grille with the moon tank in could be the Mustang showcar that AMT did. I think it was called the Autolite Special. It was a real show car from Ford.

Those funny green seats might be from the Monogram 39 Chevy Coupe or Sedan Delivery.

I know pic #7 is the back to one of those Tom Daniel's Vettes. I believe the Camaro SS grill is from a MPC annual kit. Marc Nellis has some of those and can tell you exactly which kit it is from.

Found the hood, Pic#1 on a kit on the bay. It is from the 65 Mustang Dirt track car. it's in the built section of the model car area. but yep, that's the hood.:lol::D:lol:;)
