   No Automatic Transmissions were used on 67-72 F-100 4x4's   Powertrain choices were either the standard 240 six or optional 360 V8 both with a 4 on the floor. The F-250 got the 300 six as standard.  The kit will have the V8.
   If you want to build an 67- 72 F-250 4x4 you can use the suspension parts from the AMT 78 F-350 4x4 kit.  Those parts are practically a drop in fit I've been told.

   Yes,  I'm finishing up the box art build up as write this, should have photos up this weekend.  The instructions are being completed and Dave says he just got a test shot of the last few additional parts required for this version.

   Not yet, Dave showed me the 3D artwork a just a few weeks ago.  I don't think they'll be any test shots until later this summer.

   Sure do, here's a quick mock up photo ..... Not sure of the release date yet.  
   
   And some of the new parts.  Keep in mind that some of these parts being shown are intended for other versions other then this one.  These are test shot parts and not necessarily the final version.
   
   
   The trees in the lower picture are all new parts including the frame .....   As I make progress I'll post more photos.

   The Flareside (stepside) beds are basically the same from 53-72 so they will work on the current Moebius F-100 trucks too.  The 65-66 Fleetside beds are unique to that model.  According to Dave we'll be getting both styles.

   What's next from Moebius - How about a 70 F-100 4x4 and a 65-66 F-100

   Yes, the wait for the 4x4 version is almost over.  I have a '70 long bed on the workbench as a I write this.  Photos of the 4x4 parts will be forthcoming, I'm waiting for Fotki to get back on line. Box art is already in the works.  Also we're also getting a 65-66 F-100 based on the on the current kit. Dave got the go ahead just last weekend and I saw the 3D artwork at the NNL East.  Test shots of the 65-66 kit may be ready by late this summer.  Along with the short and long bed stylesides, we'll be getting a stepside for first time.

    Yes, we're getting 65-66 Ford F100 pickup based on the current 67-72 style kit.  Details still not finalized but multiple versions are planned which will include the stepside for the first time.  A 4x4 version of the current kit should be out later this year.  I have a test shot of that sitting right next to me.  More on that 4x4 kit in a separate post soon.

    I'm with Curt on this and I think the majority of resin buyers would never support any of these direct rip-off artists knowingly.  If your going to be in the resin casting business,  being copied is a chance your going to have to take.  I hope you do Paul, life is too short to worry about every worse case scenario.

    There was a display model of the '50 Olds made from an Ertl diecast but nothing other then box art pictures of the Studebaker.  It's almost unheard of for kit tooling to be produced and then scrapped instead of being run. The only exception that I'm aware of was Revell's first version of a mid-eighties Cutlass which there were at least one test shot shown at least 10 years ago.  It was very simplified compared the recent kit as I recall.

    That's for an under-dash set of gauges to be included in a later issue as shown below.
