Chevrolet Corvette Sebring 1968 Yenko by Arena
Hand built available ARE811M
Three near identical Corvettes were entered under the Sunray DX banner at Sebring, this example seeing Chevrolet tuning specialist Don Yenko partnered with Pedro Rodriguez. One of the sister cars was a class winner but this suffered engine failure. The resin parts in the kit are very crisply moulded and this time a two-tone paint finish will be needed with the white bonnet area needing masking. The decals are well printed and should be straightforward to apply but we’re a little surprised that the kit doesn’t offer all three team cars as options, something that could be done from the spares box if you wished.

About Arena
Accurate, well detailed resin kits with white metal ancillaries and excellent photo-etched details. Instructions sometimes slightly vague but normally adequate. Castings on some subjects can be a little rough but more recent releases have all been excellent. Due to the amount of etch, they can be quite fiddly to build but in experienced hands make excellent miniatures. Hand built models also available to order. Made in Italy.
