Does R/M now own the old AM Grandsport molds ?

[Chuck Kourouklis]

I think perhaps the most obvious "tell" between the second version and the original is that the later hood has small straps molded to its rear edge.

Revell's got those.

Nice!

That's Hyundai, and better that than a Kia.

Thanks for all the info on the AM kits - I didn't realize there were two variations, and now know that mine is the earlier, more challenging and exciting build.

Actually three different kits

The first was the proto type with no hood thingies or no hood scoop.

The second was the Nassau version with the Revell type scoop

The third was the one with the fidilly finned type scoop (the Revell reissue)

At some point there was a correction (second version [of which kit ?]) to fix bodymount vs engine fit issues.
