Can you imagine sitting in the driver’s seat of America’s premier sports coupe at the ’72 Sebring race; ripping into a tight corner with a little more sideways drift than you anticipated. No problem – just start easing off the brakes and add some throaty growl from that massive 427 to pull you around in a straight line that quickly becomes – where you were! This modified Rebel was a winner and the lived up to its reputation as a competition racer.

For the modeler, this is the Revell® Motorsports Series 68 Corvette® L88 Rebel Racer in  1/25 scale. This kit is molded in white, chrome and clear with red tail lights and includes 119 pieces with a skill level 2 rating. The kit features altered front and rear generic (without names) tires, and beautiful, bright, clear decals. The kit comes with two options, stock or race versions with flared quarter extensions and non-bumper front. This model also has a removable convertible hardtop and easy step-by-step directions. There is plenty of information in the full review to help you avoid some problems building this kit. Highlighting the chassis, blacking out the grill and adding a few after market items really enhances this build. There’s a lot more – so click on the review link and get ready to rumble!
