Re: the old tool Revell kit from the 1960's.Think it originated from 1965 or so. I remember telling Mike Siegman (R.I.P.) back in '89 or so, that the first kit I built was that Revell '56,... *PIC*

In Response To: Two entirely different kits.... The Alantis offering is actually the old tool Revell kit from the 1960's. The one with opening doors, (and if memory serves, trunk). *NM* ()

and he replied, "And you still build models?" LOL.

Given some time to think about it, it may not have been the Revell '56 Chevy. Have some vague memories of a three car set that contained a Squarebird ('58-'60 T-bird), an Avanti, and ....I forget what the third car was.

Then again, I was born in '64. The '56 was built in 1972 or 3.

Question about upcoming Atlantis 56 Chevy. The box art shows Bel Air trim. The Revell kit had Del Ray trim. Is the Atlantis kit a new tool or a modified Revell body or wrong box art ? .......... *PICS* .....
- Looking at a video from NNL East the unpainted 56 Chevy is shown and it looks like the Del Ray trim as opposed to what's shown on the box. I stand to be corrected though. *NM*
- The Atlantis kit is the old 1960’s Revell tool with opening doors and trunk. On that kit the side trim is separate from the body. You can make anything from a 150 to a Bel Air. *NM*
