• Question for kit historians, picked up a bagged Orange Crate, I believe it is kit 7126 from 1986 the Hot Rod Magazine one.............PIC's
  • Yours in the different color probably came out of one of the many two or three car sets that Revell was doing around the same time *NM*
    • thanks Mark I sort of figured they may of just changed the plastic color *NM*
    • Re: It's from Revell kit #7480, Hot Rod Classic Coupes three pack....
      • that's where it came from, cool, thanks Don *NM*
  • That was indeed the Hot Rod magazine issue of the Orange Crate.... But those "vents" were actually supposed to serve as headlight pods. *NM*
    • thanks Marty after looking closer, they do look like headlights.....glad you pointed the out *NM*
    • AFAIK, because the hood tool was modified to include those headlight pods the reissue I built # 4162 from 1999 has a very flimsy resin hood included by Revell., kit is molded in white. *NM*
      • Yeah, I had one of those too. Never built it. *NM*
        • I believe the issue after that had a newly tooled styrene hood. I've got the one with the resin hood, but was able to scare up an original piece to use instead *NM*
  • Headlights.......................... *PIC*
