Kurtis Kraft racers dominated the open wheel circuit for much of the fifties and this reissue kit makes a great replica of those bygone days. This kit includes 49 pieces including some figures (not used for this review) and a larger-sized piece of clear, thin sheet plastic (to be cut to size for the windshield) and a nice colorful decal sheet.<\/p>\n

1953 Indy 500 featuring Kurtis Kraft Racers<\/span><\/a>\u00c2\u00a0 All six cars of the front two rows at the start of the race that year were Kurtis Kraft makes. Bill Vukovich\u00c2\u00a0won in his #1 Kurtis Kraft\/Offy Racer.<\/p>\n

All in all, you can have a good time with this kit. These old school kits can be taken for granted, but when you take the time to build one it’s a nice change.\u00c2\u00a0 There are lots of ways to add to this kit if you want to go into more detail.\u00c2\u00a0 As a box stock kit, it will look good in any collection.<\/p>\n

This is a skill level 2 kit and would make a great parent\/child project or a great base for the serious modeler. There are several issues addressed for the hobbyist and the fixes are fully described in the Step-by-Step Review.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
