I'm going to add a revell monogram 67 corvette to my list of 
complaints too. The flipping body was too small and had to be 
stretched, well figuratively speaking to fit over the chassis 
when it was time to pop the body on. The problem was that the 
firewall in the front of the passenger compartment was too 
bloody wide for the body and I ended up cutting it heaps just 
to get the body to sit right.

Sheesh!! Am I just having a bad run or do these companies actually
have any quality control in their products. Note the problems I
had with the AMT ERTL cars in the post prior to this one.
