Question about a corvette kit

hello
I'm thinking about buying this kit:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=3171449404

How can I know if it's detailed?
I guess the doors and the hood can't be opened, right?

(Actually I wanted such kit with metal body and opening doors and hood, but couldn't find one )

I have that kit sitting at home. The hood does open and the engine is fairly well detailed, although it doesn't have any plug wires like the 1/24th Monogram kit. A skilled builder could open the doors, but I wouldn't recommend this for a first-time door opening project.

thanks
I don't think I'll try to open the doors cause it's my first (plastic) kit at all, so... it won't be wise to try.

I guess it is going to be my first kit for the corvete series

From what I've read, the AMT Vette kits tend to sit very high and need some modification to sit at the right height, though it may change depending on which model Vette...
