   Mr. Muppet added a post in a topic WTB: 54 Olds caps & 50 Merc dash    Wednesday at 9:03 PM

   Not sure if it's in his catalog any more, but Norm Veber at Replicas and Miniatures produced a '50 Mercury dash.  1953 -1955 style Oldsmobile hubcaps very similar to the ones you're looking for in Revell's Ed Roth '56 Ford pickup and the Custom '50 Olds kit (solid wheel using Revell's wonkyish new wheel design), but the caps in both of those kits have the three spinner bars.

   I want this as badly as I want a '71 Riviera.  The Mustang actually seems way more feasible, but if they go for it, they might do an '18 .

   Looks like it shouldn't have been too difficult to mold.  It might have required a slightly higher parts count (by maybe two parts), but we've seen more complex parts from Revell before.  Maybe someone in the aftermarket will come out with a fix.

   Just completed a great trade with Jon Haigwood.  Very happy here.

   The center panel between the tail lights looks inset just like they are.

   You're nuts, but that ain't a bad thing!  LOL.  Getting a bit of '40 Ford flavor from what you seem to be doing.  Very interesting.

   As long as they fixed that tail light panel, I'll buy at least two.

    Norm Veber at Replicas and Miniatures makes a tri-carb intake with Strombergs and louvered air cleaners for Revell's '57 Y-block.

    I believe those wheels can also be found in the AMT 1969 Riviera that's seen a couple of recent reissues.

    In my experience, Tamiya (from the can) should come off in 91% isopropyl alcohol.

    Mr. Muppet added a post in a topic Revell Q2/Q3 Flyer    8 April

    Since the headlights on the 2018 Mustang are a different shape than the 2015 model, Revell would have to tool up new ones, so maybe they went a little further with these.  Seems unlikely, but maybe...

    That Charger can't come out soon enough.  Kinda disappointed to see yet another SNAP version of the current gen Mustang, albeit updated--A full detail kit is starting to feel overdue.
