Timeline 1970: In an effort to compete with the other American auto makers on the track in the Trans Am racing series of the late 1960’s, Ford dropped their lighter weight 302 V8 into the redesigned 1970 Mustang. The result was a balanced supercar that could handle the corners as well as it could go in a straight line. This is the street legal version of the car that gave Ford the 1970 Manufacturer’s Title win by one point over its rivals. Quite an accomplishment and a beautiful car to boot!
The 1:24 scale kit parts count is over 94 pieces and is molded in white plastic, clear glass/headlight lens, clear taillight panes, chrome and black tires. A well detailed decal sheet is included for engine, interior and exterior details.
For the Modeler – Revell did hit the proverbial ‘nail on the head’ with this kit! This kit builds up into one “Boss Mustang”! Lots of detail, excellent decals and the proportions look right on! Would I build this kit again? Yes I would. As a matter of fact I do have the ’70 Mustang Mach I Special Edition version of this kit which builds either the Mach I or the Boss 302.

Revell’s new 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS “2n1” kit (#85-4281) is a re-pop of its original release as a stock build. It allows the modeler to build it in one of two ways: as a factory stock replica or as a “California Wheels” version complete with custom wheels, low-profile tires, custom air cleaner and finned valve covers. It contains a whopping 149 parts, molded in pristine white plastic, clear glass/headlights, clear red taillights, chrome, and black rubber tires. A rather detailed decal sheet is included for engine, interior, and exterior applications.
For the modeler – The instruction sheet is clear, concise, and simple to follow. The parts are mostly flash-free and contact points on the trees are thick enough to hold parts in place while painting, but not so thick as to hinder removal of the parts. One nice thing I noticed is the thought Revell put into locating their tree contact points… for the most part, they are located in inconspicuous places on the part, making cleanup after removal much easier, especially on the chrome tree. Kudos to Revell! I also like the minimal seams on the body. It made cleanup a snap. You’ll need to use a trick to make the oil filter decal visible and detail the Chevy emblems. Manifold alterations, proper suspension alignment, “SS†alterations, assembly sequence deviations and decal handling are fully examined in the Step-by-Step review. Â
