However design problems showed the &#8220;new&#8221; Vette wasn&#8217;t ready, so it was decided there would be one final Stingray for 1967. With very few modifications from 1966 the 1967 was born. The two biggest changes were the addition of a 435 HP 427 cubic inch engine that featured a tri-power [3&#215;2 barrel carbs] intake and a special new big block hood featuring a unique hood scoop. With looks and performance [0-60 in 5.5 seconds and a 13.8 second 1\/4 mile] the 67 Corvette really stood out. It also remained a favorite at race tracks, drag strips and stop lights. This Revell kit features all those options and more! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><b>For the Modeler:<\/b> This is the Revell 1967 Corvette Convertible 2n1 kit #85-4087.\u00c2\u00a0 It is a 1:25 scale, Skill Level 3 kit with 156 parts molded in White, Chrome, Clear, and transparent red with soft vinyl tires. This is a modified reissue of Revell\/Monogram #85-2968 tooling and finally [and best of all] the modification was making it a 2n1 kit. The kit now features a racing version to go along with the stock version and at 156 pieces it is very detailed. \u00c2\u00a0I decided to do the race version of the kit for my build, but it should be noted that it also builds as a great stock replica. This kit features a choice of two hoods and two different wheel styles, plus a separate plated windshield frame. The finished dimensions are; Length 6.75\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, Width 2.875\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, Height 2.0\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><b><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Covered in this Review:<\/span><\/b><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00c2\u00a0 If you want to perfect your build; basic construction; preparing parts for better finishing; alternate assembly sequence suggestions for fit and ease of finishing; complete paint and adhesive selections and applications; engine assembly and detailing; test fitting; chassis detailing and construction; correcting instruction errors; dashboard decal detailing; interior detailing and color selection; suspension detailing; decal preparation and applications; correcting axle detail errors; version part considerations; adding realism to the center console; shifter decal orientation; a gauge location map; seam identification; bumper mount considerations; hood modifications for fit; using metalizers for correct wheel finishes; wheel pin modifications; scratch building a radio mast for realism; window installation methods; adding black washes for realistic intakes; detailed racing stripe installation instructions, are all fully examined in this pictorial <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><b>11 page, full-color<\/b><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Step-by-Step review in PDF format. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/?page_id=2932\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><b><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">100% money back guarantee!<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Click the <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><b>Buy Now<\/b><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> link below to purchase the full Step-by-Step review for<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> <b>$2.95 USD<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\u00c2\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"cmd\" value=\"_s-xclick\" \/>\u00c2\u00a0<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"hosted_button_id\" value=\"KFMVCCPHFYBZG\" \/>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 <input type=\"image\" alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<p align=\"center\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Important<\/span> &#8211; You <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">MUST<\/span> <\/strong>click on the &#8220;<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Return to Right on Replicas, LLC<\/span>&#8221; link after you&#8217;ve made your purchase to download your review!<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Right On Replicas, LLC \u00c2\u00a92013 All rights reserved. <\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">*All registered trademarks are the property of their respective brands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[\nvar _gaq = _gaq || [];   _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-7543364-1']);   _gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'rightonreplicas.com']);   _gaq.push(['_setAllowLinker', true]);   _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);   (function() {     var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text\/javascript'; ga.async = true;     ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
