Celebrate an iconic moment in drag racing with the Atlantis Models AMCH7172 1:24 Tom “Mongoose” McEwen ’57 Chevy Funny Car model kit. Officially licensed by General Motors and Tom McEwen, this kit captures the 1988 crowd‑pleaser that melded the classic 1957 Chevrolet body with a modern funny car chassis—echoing quarter‑mile runs in under six seconds.
Based on Revell tooling, this skill level 3 plastic model kit offers crisp detail and an engaging build for experienced modellers aged 14 and up. A 1‑piece flip body reveals the tubular frame and a detailed dual‑magneto engine, while separate rear wing and wheelie bars complete the authentic stance.

In 1988 legendary Top Fuel and funny car drag racer Tom "Mongoose" McEwen introduced his fans to something really new. His new ride featured the classic body shape of the 1957 Chevy on a modern funny car chassis. With 1/4 mile runs at less than 6 seconds, this funny car could claim to be the fastest '57 Chevy in the world! Tom McEwen's drag racing career spanned more than 45 years with victories all along the way. However, he was most known for his famous match races against Don "The Snake" Prudhomme. These high-profile races defined a new era in professional drag racing with the introduction of nationally-known sponsors.
