Monogram and Revell Mustang IMSA Kits

[GarryR]

I have been cataloging some of my stash, and ran across these. 
I know it is a hard question, but any idea as to the disposition of this tooling? As far as I know, these may have not been reissued since they were released in the 80s. Might Salvinos JR have them?

AFAIK, Salvino's doesn't have the IMSA cars. The later Mustangs were revised into the IMSA Camaros, so not sure if they can easily be put back to original spec.

Yeah, we've tossed around what might have happened to these kits before. The Miller and GTP cars where never altered so if they still exist they might have been in the US based tooling that ended up with Atlantis. 

The 83-87 body on the Revell kit was updated to the 88-93 body and then to to the blue Camaro body. So if that kit still exists it will be as the Camaro. If we can determine where the last reissue of that car we made we can make an educated guess about where the tooling might be.

Loved those kits, though.

By the way, the GTP was an SSP, wasn't it?  Missed it in the original run but snapped it up later, as I recall...

Also, the same seems true of the '82 IMSA. Just looked up the Roush Motorsport kit and found a box with a 1995 copyright.

I believe the Ron Fellows Sunoco Camaro (1997) was the last release of what started as the IMSA Mustang (then Camaro) tooling.

Thanks to all for the information. I obviously didn’t observe the release activity close enough. Also did not know that the Camaro IMSA kits were reworks of the Mustangs.

I built all the 88 Mustang versions back when they came out. I'd sure like to get them again.

I have a Revell Hot Wheels IMSA Camaro here. The box is dated 1993 and states "Made in U.S.A." on the side. 

Hope this helps.
