It is a Re-release of the original 1968 El Camino with a bonus Soap Box Derby Car. The kit is a Skill Level 2 as it requires Paint and glue. The El Camino has seen many box arts and has been released a lot over the past few years.

This pairing is uncommon. In the box you will get well over 100 parts molded in White, Black, Chrome, Clear, and Clear Red with Vinyl tires and Metal axles. The tires are double side Tampo printed which is a bonus as one side is Red Line. The decals are all of a race style with no stock or interior included. The Instruction sheet is fold-out and typical of the old AMT style. As for the build you will get a well detailed motor. The chassis is quite detailed and all separate frame parts. The interior is a tub design but all individual parts. The body is solid and slides very tightly in place and fit and finish is great. Overall dimensions are: Length:8-1\/2\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Width: 3\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, Height: 2\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>See the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">FREE<\/span> Step-by-Step review by clicking on the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">YouTube<\/span> link below<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/fSnr_wkY5LU\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>1968 El Camino Derby Champs II Review<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Right On Replicas, LLC \u00c2\u00a92017 All rights reserved. *All registered trademarks are the property of their respective brands.
