Review Summary

The reviews highlight a mix of experiences with this model kit, noting its extensive customization options like multiple engine builds, hood choices, and tire sets, which many find enjoyable despite some dated design elements. Common criticisms include significant flash on parts, poor fit issues with components like taillights and windows, and inconsistent detail, particularly in the interior and chassis. While some appreciate the nostalgic value and potential for a great build with effort, others find the required trimming and adjustments frustrating, making it more suitable for intermediate or experienced modelers.

Fun Corvette build

By: anthonyswaney

This Corvette model comes with 4 different engine builds, there are plenty pieces left for building an extra motor. It comes with stock or slick tires for the back. On the stock wheels it comes with seperate center caps which are three spoke and looks good when painted the same color as the car. You can make this car height stock or raised up some. It comes with three different hoods to choose from also. It comes with racing decals which I did not use. I had a good time building this model and any chevy fan would want this.

Lots of Trimming

By: Chris R. (Jacksonville, Ar)

Don't know if it was the kit I have or molding on the car. I had to do a lot of trimming/shaving where the plastic meet/overlapped on the body. The tail light did not fit into the sockets and the engine did not fit in the engine bay after you installed the wheel rod for the front tire. Overall a bad model kit (or least the kit I bought)

Great Classic Kit

By: sparkmaster56

I built this kit as a kid. It does take a little clean up and test fitting to make things right. The kit has allot of spare parts if your a kit basher. For its age it stood up well. The interior detail is week and requires a bit of patients to get it looking good. For the intermediate modeler it's an awesome representation of the real car. For the purist some of the body detail isn't correct. All in all I still love this kit.
