  1. Hopefully they'll include the blue and silver stripes on the decal sheet.
  2. I wish AMT would do this truck!
  3. I think the open road camper Chevy van would be another cloning project that would sell great.
  4. I'll give that a try, I tried clear coating the glass after the smoke dried but it didn't make a difference.
  5. Tamiya smoke used to be good but the last few cans I bought weren't so good, it was turning foggy when it dried.
  6. The stepside bed was never updated, the original Sodbuster release had the same bed that's shown on the test shot.
  7. I hope the headlight area is one of the items being revised, because they're way off. headlights shouldn't protrude out like they do, plus they look a lil undersized too.
  8. Looks great! what paint did you use on the wheels?
  9. The frame, interior and sleeper are the same, hoods and grilles are different. The cabs are slightly different, the only difference is where the fenders of the hood flow into the cab sides.
  10. 2004 Pontiac GTO's had the LS1 rated at 350 hp. '05 & '06 GTO's had the LS2 rated at 400 hp.
  11. Was there a factory dually option on the fleetside beds for this generation truck? I did a google search and it appears that they were either home made jobs or aftermarket conversions. If this new ramp truck has the dually wheels like the pic shows it would be a good idea to tool up some dually fenders to use on the previous kits.
  12. If Revell were to tool up a new 1/16 scale kit they should start with a Porsche 911, Fujimi did a 959 in 1/16 but it appears no one ever did a 1/16 scale 911. I find it surprising that such an iconic sports car is missing in that scale so therefore Revell wouldn't have any competition, and if they did it right (high parts count, opening everything) I think it would be a strong seller.
  13. They're from an Italeri Freightliner FLC kit. But Italeri used the basic Freightliner frame in most of their U.S. truck kits.
  14. And in the first pic a Ford pick up in the back ground!
