Revell 1/32 Trio
Picked these up at a recent yardsale. They're Revell's version of Gunze's original 1/32nd American Classics. All three in the set were started using good old tube glue. I was able to separate some parts, but two of the interiors were glued solid. Luckily none were advanced so far as to glue in the clear parts. So a lot of polishing was done to the bodies and glass. Clear coats were applied to the Impala and Cadillac. The T-Bird had to be painted because the light blue molded body didn't match the white molded fender skirts. Bare Metal Foil was applied afterwards. Unfortunately, none were issued with side mirrors or antennae.
1963 Ford T-Bird
1959 Chevrolet Impala
1959 Cadillac
Thanks for looking,
Mike

Those 1/32 scale kits were no great shakes, but what a fine job on all three! Better than I ever would expect. Good show!

Hi Mr R,
Very nice line up Sir, although my personal favourite has to be the Cadillac...

Re: Revell 1/32 Trio
They look really great! I haven't seen these built before. I've built only one in 1/32.. the 56 Chrysler New Yorker. It had a multi-part body that was a bit tricky. Were these single piece bodies ?

Re: Revell 1/32 Trio
All were single piece. The T-Bird was the only one that was odd. The skirts were molded in a different color than the body, so all had to be painted.
