Gene Snow of Fort Worth, Texas was one of the top Funny Car racers of the 1970s. He won major NHRA, AHRA and IHRA meets with a reputation for both top speed and consistently low elapsed times. In the mid 1970s Revell sponsored his Chevrolet Vega Funny Car, the “Revell Snowman,” which wore a bright red and white livery with a fierce flaming abominable snowman on the sides. Under the flip-up body sat a blown, nitro-burning Hemi built by Ed Pink, mounted in an S&R chassis. Revell first released the kit in its Famous Racers Series, and this 1996 Revell-Monogram reissue brought it back with the original Snowman graphics.
