Hello guys and gals. My name is Jody and well, I am a modeler. I am currently trying to make a 1/16 scale version of the old Revel Hemi Hydro kit wich was 1/25 scale. I have searched leterally hundreds of photos and many are close in several regards, but I have found nothing the same.Maybe you guys can help me to indentify wich boat and year this is supposed to be.Thank you.

Yea I got that same model but havent put it together yet.I dont think your gonna find anything just like it.Revell proably never copied the exact boat.Looks a little to square on some of the sides.So that is what throws it off.What are you trying to do just find the make?

I hate models. Nothin like searchin boat stuff on the internet and it's all clogged with toys....

Try looking at early Stevens boats and you will find your answer H29

Ebay is the biggest offender...:(

why build a model when you can build the real thing

LOL. Sorry to clog up yer site. But someone told me if I wanted answeres, go to the guys that know. Well this looks about the best place of all! I would love to build one of these fer real indeed, esp say about maybe a 77 or 78 Hondo 17 footer with maybe a keith black or a donavan 429 Hemi!! But I dont make much, so since my income is little, I must keep my projects little.LOL. Hopefully this year I start on a car finally again.Still young with just a few young right offs.I will get my time! Early Stevens?? A 69 is simular?? I know most everything was more rounded in the rear and that is the biggest thing throwing me off! Otherwise I might say a early Hondo or a howard or a biesemeyer or a stevens or maybe even a sanger. They all are simular, but still a little different. Thanks.

Good luck with your search.
