Gee ... over 10 days have come and gone and no one has any info on this kit ... good or bad! [:0]
I have finished my building of this kit ...
So ... I will post a short review for anyone who might be interested.
Great kit ... enjoyed building it ... looks really nice in my display case, well worth the $28.00 US I paid for the kit. This little jewel is marketed by Testors Corporation of Rockford, IL, USA ... the kit has a copyright date of 2002. It is made in China for Liberty Classics, Libertyville, IL, USA. In fact, at a local hobby show last weekend I saw offered for sale by one of the vendors at the show a built-up engine marketed by said Liberty Classics, it wasn't a kit. So, I guess Liberty Classics markets a built up engine and Testors markets the kit.
This is a mixed media 1/6th scale model kit of the 375 hp L-84 Chevy Corvette 327 cu. in. fuel injected engine available as an extra $$ option on the 1963 - 1965 Chevy Corvettes. The kit builds rather easy ... no painting required ... unless you wish to add extra detail ... but, right from the box it builds a really good scale replica of this engine. I added detail painting and repainted the exhaust headers to match more closely the pictures I had of this engine in 1/1 scale.
All in all this is a very good kit, a fun build with good value and ends with a very impressive display item.
If you are interested in this type of kit ... pick it up and give it a try.
Thanks for your time ...
