Nice unboxing. Definitely a very detailed kit. Thanks for sharing.

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

Thanks for watching Michael! Much appreciated

[@kkcdesignandmodelcars1816]

This is amazing! Now i want this kit! Even the blue plastic is a fantastic colour!

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

It’s a cool kit, the last kit I unboxed was the newer version

[@rickzinck9326]

Very cool old school kit. Nice review.

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

It’s very neat. Thanks for watching

[@KRD12K]

Great videos...

[@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681]

Roy that is one of my favorites of all time and I to as a kid built it and I have about three of them in my stash and one of them is the OG from the sixties and is molded in a slightly darker shade of blue

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

That’s so cool. Neat to find all this stuff in your stash isn’t it?

[@VinoRatRodbuilds]

And Roy you were a Big time car guy back in the day.

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

So I’ve been told. LOL. I have so much between the two that i probably have content forever. But love my cars, small and life sized.

[@Stupidfastracing]

I have two of these kit's and I have the black one

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

That’s cool. Now I want the black one too.

[@Stupidfastracing]

@@MarKoCustomBuildModels they are hard to find buddy and pricey I found mine om mercari market place

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

@@Stupidfastracing I’ll keep that place in mind. I have a couple of ones I go to, and price is getting to be more of an issue.

[@Stupidfastracing]

@@MarKoCustomBuildModels yes sir it's ridiculous how much they're charging for shipping

[@modelcars2978]

You all need to stop making me want to buy Willys!🤟🤠👍

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

LOL.... so you’re suggesting no more willys for a couple days?

[@Fantastic_Plastic67]

Dig this kit

[@jesseortega8598]

That's a hydrostic Transmission. From B&M!

[@donstevenson2660]

Wouldn't it be great if Revell did a tribute release with full color photos of Fred Stone and Leonard Woods on those boxes. Two men who really made their mark in racing and yet so many no nothing about them. They might have suggested that Revell only used Cook's picture, given the attitudes of the day, but it's only right to acknowledge two black pioneers in American racing.

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

I agree, more information and more about all the people is important. Hopefully one day that will happen

[@brianlewis6926]

What year did that release come out I have one I got few years ago and it's molded in white. The transmission is a hydromatic, first commercially use 4 speedway automatic transmission gm designed it for Oldsmobile and Cadillac, but they use them in Kaiser's Hudson mash and Lincoln's some foreign cars rolls Royce, WW2 tanks, they made 2 versions of it 1939 to 1956 This is the transmission that made B&M famous, they converted it to a race transmission B&M hydro stick, I think they had a clutch like a manual transmission did

[@MarKoCustomBuildModels]

On the instruction it's an '89 release. The kit was first released in '82, thanks for all the info about the transmission.

[@dustymojave]

This 1982 re-release was done at a time when Revell merged with Monogram. Thus some legal need for copyright update. Monogram had just bought themselves out from under Mattel Toys ownership. I was working at Mattel in Manufacturing Engineering in 1982. I drove past Revell's headquarters on my commute to and from work at Mattel. A former coworker from a different plastics company was working in Engineering at Revell. My older brother built one of these kits when it was 1st released in the 60s. I built another in the late 60s. Still have that in my display case. Painted candy apple red and candy blue, not as the SWC car. The transmission was indeed a GM TurboHydramatic. 4 speed auto. B&M made themselves famous modifying these for racing. Quite a rugged trans.
