Smitty Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I seem to recall seeing surfboards included in a kit or kits sometime in the past but I can’t recall which one or ones it was. Can anyone remember seeing them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLMFAA1 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 The old MPC 'Wild Ones' 1929 Ford pick-up had along with the bike a character called 'hot Curl' that held a surf board. greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showrods Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) Monogram '30 Woody Wagon from back when...maybe some of the reissues had the boards too. Cadillac Surf Shark has them. Edited August 7, 2022 by showrods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike C. Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I was searching around last week and stumbled across these. Asuka 1/24 Miniature Spice Long Boards and Carrier MS-002 – Burbank's House of Hobbies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C. Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I also found these on Ebay last year or so. Probably from the '64 Malibu surf wagon. I'm always looking for the thrusters (3 fin) as that was the era that I used to surf in. I do like the older ones though I still have an old G and S longboard. When that thing hits you, you feel it! 🤕 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike C. Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 I have bought from this Ebay store before. He's pretty good. I just stumbled onto this. 77 1977 Ford Surfer Van 1/25 Lot of 2 Surf Boards Long Roof Mount Model Diorama | eBay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C. Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 The top board looks to be a Yater Spoon. A popular design from back in the 70s in case you want to impress anyone with surfing trivia 😄. The bottom board looks like just a typical vintage board. Thes look like they come with a roof rack too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Payne Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Also Monogram's Blue Beetle, which also included scuba gear. Replicas and Miniatures used to have repops of the board and gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W Humble Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Revell Ford F100, the early kit that warped so badly; think it had one. I found some window-blind slat material that works okay, and some PVC strips from a hdwe. store that aren't bad. Laminating two produces a thick board; lot's a sanding and shaping thojgh.

That was going to be my approach, but I’d probably just use styrene sheet. Being basically lazy, I thought I’d first check to see if there were some I could pirate from a kit.

Smitty Posted August 8, 2022 Author Share Posted August 8, 2022 Thanks everyone for your very helpful responses. I knew I’d come to the right place! I’m planning a surf wagon build of the AMT Nova wagon and I’d like to throw a surfboard or two up on it’s roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
