Camaro Street Machine Appraisal

Vintage MPC Night Prowler Camaro Street Machine 1/25 Scale Model Kit

This is a vintage 1/25 scale plastic model kit of the 'Night Prowler' Camaro Street Machine, produced by the Model Products Corporation (MPC). The item features vibrant box art depicting a customized late-1970s Chevrolet Camaro with a wide-body kit, side-exit exhausts, a roof scoop, and a distinctive multi-color stripe package in yellow, orange, and red over a deep blue body. The box indicates the kit is 'Molded in Blue' and includes both English and French text ('Modèle Réduit'), signifying its distribution in the North American market. The branding features the classic MPC logo and bold 'NIGHT prowler' typography typical of late 1970s or early 1980s hobby kits. Regarding condition, the cardboard box shows visible signs of shelf wear, including compression on the top surface, softened corners, and light age-toning. A handwritten price or stock marking '20' is visible on the upper right corner. The box remains structurally intact, though its ultimate value would depend on whether the internal contents are complete, unbuilt, and still on their original plastic sprue trees. These kits are prized by collectors for their period-correct 'Street Machine' styling and historical significance in the car modeling hobby.
