Zippi Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I've seen the die cast models of the 1948 Tucker Torpedo created by Preston Tucker but was there ever a plastic model produced? I just thought it was a car ahead of it's time like the Studebaker Avanti was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Van Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Modelhaus resin kit is as close as you can get to a 'plastic kit'. Danberry Mint made a 1/24 die cast that is very nice too. I have both and really like the Modelhaus version........the die cast is a little more detailed but like a kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobthehobbyguy Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 It would be nice to see a tucker kit but its probably highly unlikely. Would have to be a one off kit. No options for drag race or nascar tie ins. If round 2 does they could maybe do a run of coke cola themed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A stock, race and custom COULD work IMHO ONLY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave G. Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Tuckers are good/cool and all that but my cry is for Buicks 1932 or 34 -1957 ! Moebius does Hudsons and Chryslers, this resin company Tucker but you never hear about Buicks. I once emailed about 3 years ago asked Moebius if they ever intended to do a 1956 Buick or any Buick for that matter. No reply. So guess not.
