chuckyr Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I can see the conversion possibilities from the post 1955 GMC 100 pick up, but is a resin conversion out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaronw Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 RMR offers a lot of 1950s cab overs including a 1957 Chevrolet http://www.freewebs.com/rmrresin/nf125.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Most Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 RMR and Frontier sell the generation before the one Chucky is looking for- he's after a '55-59 stub nose conventional. I've seen a few conversions done to the AMT '55-57 pickup cabs, but none in resin. If somebody made one, I'd be right in line behind you for one. There's a local truck I've wanted to model for a long time- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckyr Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 It's "O" scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Speaking of 'O' scale, there's this- This one would at least give you a heavier chassis and wheels, but you'd still need to shorten and widen the nose and rework the grille like you would with the AMT '55.
