1/25 Scale Funny Car Model Kit
This AMT kit reproduces the 1976 Chevrolet Vega Funny Car in 1/25 scale for adult hobbyists who enjoy building detailed drag-racing replicas. It arrives as a new Skill 2 plastic kit with parts molded in white and includes chrome-plated pieces, pad-printed tires and an expanded decal sheet. Paint and cement are required but not supplied.
Thermals Noise and Power
As a static display model the kit generates no heat, draws no power and makes no noise during assembly or once finished. The only energy involved is the modeller's time spent cutting parts from sprues, applying adhesive and painting the supercharged 454 cubic inch Chevy Rat motor with Hilborn four port fuel injector engine.
Skill 2 Assembly Requirement
This kit is rated Skill 2 so it demands basic modelling experience such as trimming flash, aligning the dragster-type tubular chassis and fitting the Mag wheels, wheelie bars and Moon fuel tank. Buyers who have never built a plastic model before may find the fit and finishing steps frustrating.

Questions about this item
How do I assemble the dragster-type tubular chassis without misaligning the supercharged 454 cubic inch Chevy Rat motor?
Dry-fit the chassis rails and motor mounts before applying cement; the supercharged 454 cubic inch Chevy Rat motor with Hilborn four port fuel injector must sit level or the wheelie bars will not contact the ground.
What consumables will I need to replace when the black vinyl tires or decals degrade?
The kit includes pad-printed M&H Drag slicks and an expanded decal sheet; spares are not supplied, so source matching 1/25 scale drag slicks and reproduction decals when the originals crack or fade.
Which part reaches its limit first during extended display — the chrome plated parts or the white molded plastic?
Chrome plated parts on the mag wheels, Moon fuel tank and upswept headers dull from handling oils before the white molded plastic yellows; handle by the chassis and store away from direct light.
