S. Svendsen Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share Posted January 19, 2007 Thanks for the compliments. Your right my website is getting a little long in the tooth by today's standards. It's about 8 years old. I would love to redo it but it's got too much stuff on there now to change it. Maybe some day. The '63 Tempest kit is the same Altered Wheel Base kit that was re-issued a few years ago. Dave just wanted to do a new box for it. This one should end up being pretty rare as there will only be about 1000 made. Here's a picture and a link to more pictures. http://homepage.mac.com/ssven5/Sites/Svens.../63tempest.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am working on some upcoming box art projects for Dave Burket and he ask me to let you guys know about some of the upcoming kits that will be re-issued in '07-'08. 1/32 scale '34 Ford altered & Fiat altered combo kit These were the old Monogram Ford Screamer and Hemi Fiat kits, correct?

I believe one of the 1/32 kits needed some retooling (I can't remember which one) and the cost wasn't worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S. Svendsen Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 Don't remember ever seeing this one "'73 Challenger funny car w/ trailer and '77 Dodge fleetside pickup combo" This one also died when the Dodge pickup tooling was also found to need too much re-tooling to turn it back to stock from the monster truck version.

What's been so heavily-butchered with the D / W 100-200 Dodge Truck that makes its tooling so unworkable ? I remember that its hood was butchered ; however , was its bed "fiddled-with" too ? Can't the Little Red Express be employed for its parts , even if its only contributions are its hood and chassis ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) What ever happen to Model King? did Dave give up on this! I like the kits he bought out. I'm curious about this myself.

horsepower Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 If you go back through the thread it says it was dropped because the tooling for the pickup was going to take to much work to restore it to the stock status after being altered for the monster truck kit.
