moparfarmer Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 I guess, but realistically how many variations of any one of those can you make? If you can't get more than one copy it will never happen..Its just the way the model business is today.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Myers Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 1960 El Camino, come on AMT, You already have the '59, should be easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisBcritter Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) AMT/Round2 will never go to the trouble; Revell, I bet, won't either due to costs (remember the canceled '57 Ranchero?). We really need a good resin transkit, preferably to fit the Revell '60 Impala. And the OCD in me thinks the bed rails on the stock El Camino above should be slanting forward, not back!

ChrisBcritter Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 ^^^Thus the cost issue. A good resin kit would have to include a modified chassis, possibly mastered from a mashup of '59 El Camino and '60 Impala parts, to save having to buy two donor kits.

espo Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Speaking of '57 Ranchero's, didn't Revell offer a '57 Ranchero many years ago ? As I recall it was based on the early multi piece '57 Country Squire. I think at first they offered a stock bodied kit and then a radically chopped one.
