As I started pre-construction inspection of the kit, several items jumped out for attention for the club modeler.<\/p>\n
1) The heads and valve covers for the engine are in several parts that have proven to be a fit nightmare, but using dry-fit procedures eventually got the parts right. The real parts are cast in one piece as these parts should be.<\/p>\n
2) The body is well-moulded, no pin marks, no ejector pin marks, no flash and appear to be accurate based on inspections and reviews by my local Ford dealership.<\/p>\n
3) The kit is set up in modules that will allow the modeler to keep track of progress-the instructions are clear, well-detailed and have hints and tips included to aid construction. The modules are front and rear suspensions, chassis, engine\/transmission, body and interior.<\/p>\n
4) 120 parts seem too much for the average modeler, especially the young modelers we are trying to interest in the hobby. However, I personally accept this for the sake of accuracy.<\/p>\n
Overall impression, a good kit for the modeler on a budget, excellent subject material and look forward to more kits out of Revell-Monogram. I will keep all updated as construction progresses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
