1/25 K921 SMP 1961 Chevrolet Corvette 3 in 1 Kit - Stock / Competition / Custom (AMT)

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Rare kit from 1961 from Scale Model Products, later purchased by AMT. Nicely detailed and molded kit. Features Chevrolet 283 with factory fuel injection, detailed engine bay, opening hood, full interior, opening trunk, optional hubcaps, numerous competition and custom parts and much more. Even includes the famous SMP scale billboard with a Corvette insert. There has been no assembly but NOTE: the body, hood, trunk, optional top and bumper filler have been spray painted red. You can remove this with DOT3 brake fluid, spray oven cleaner or any safe, tested plastic stripper. Inventoried complete with all parts, decals and instructions. Scale Model Products (SMP) was a major competitor to AMT during the late 1950s. SMP started the 'Annual' craze in 1958. However, AMT bought SMP around 1960/1961. AMT liked the SMP logo more than their own, and substituted their letters into it. It is not known exactly who invented the '3 In 1' kit, but many credit it to SMP.
