Ace-Garageguy Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 (edited) The only kit that interior came in, as far as I'm aware, is this one. I've seen it in bright yellow and white too. Edited November 8, 2016 by Ace-Garageguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 Thanks, Bill. I could not find any images of the kit in red, only the two colors you (and IIRC Mark B. in an earlier topic) mentioned. Sure is ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 I've got parts from the '32 sedan in yellow, light blue, red, and white. Besides the first issue pictured, there was a second "wordless box" issue after that, with no wording on the box top and no illustrations on the end panels. Similar style to the current Round 2 '32 Victoria, '50 Ford convertible, and upcoming '49 Ford coupe.Some (but not all) of the Gasser issue Willys coupe kits also contain the custom '32 sedan. That issue was changed during its run; early ones contain the double kit, later ones contain the Willys coupe only, but with the alternate pickup version. The box is unchanged; the artwork shows only the Willys coupe. The later Gasser issue kits were catalogued and sold alongside the first issue coupe/pickup in a different box (the one Round 2 replicated for their first reissue of the Willys). If you had both versions of the Gasser issue kit in sealed boxes, the one with the Deuce sedan would weigh a bunch more than one with the Willys coupe/pickup though.

CabDriver Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I just meant I was interested to know i have a couple of those kits here and I doubt I paid much for them - I was just curious really. I'm still gonna build em, even if they are worth more than I suspected! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 People want them more for the Ford sedan, because that custom version went out of production nearly fifty years ago. But the Willys coupe in the double kit has its original slotted wheels, and has the original clear parts which are better than those in later issues. Of course, the "glass" is all flat; you can make even better parts yourself. But the headlight lenses are better than the later ones too. Another part that is better in the early issue Willys kits is the "mailbox" injector scoop; recent kits have a "mold shift" that makes the scoop paper-thin in some areas.

johnseekamp Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 When I was a kid back in the late 60's I received this double model kit ('40 Willys coupe/'32 Ford Sedan molded in white) for Christmas. The box wasn't the one shown but a color picture of the two cars. I built them then and still have 'em! John Seekamp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Myers Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Sure like to see that kit reissued, even if it was just the '32 Sedan, with all the custom parts and cool Buick Nailhead of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
