Jordan White Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Looks like Revell will be bringing back the 2wd Street Pickup again! I wonder if they will change any contents, or just the decals? 4 hours ago, Justin Porter said: Apparently, at least according to Stevens International, the return of the '70 Torino Cobra is just one piece in a slate of good news for in-bound Revell reissues.

Most likely just decals but I'd really like to see them stick a set of stock bumpers and a proper front suspension in the box. 😁 , , and fill in that hole in the roof !! 🙄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. It would have been a no brainer for MPC or AMT to give us this subject back in the 70's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPC offered a C-10 for 1978 as an annual. It was the only 2WD version. Mid-1978 or so, a K-10 was released ( Dust Devil ) , but it wasn't 100% factory stock. The fleetside (I've trouble remembering whose nomenclature is proper when mentioning the bed style of their pickup's beds) wasn't released until the Fall Guy issue of c.1983. The Revell C-10 is quite toy-like ; detail is scant at best. It can be made to look decent, but that'd take some swapping and massaging. Revell's kit glass from that era was pretty bad, as one could see the 'runners' along the top edge of the windscreen and backlight.

Tabbysdaddy Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Other than not being able to build it stock, I think it's pretty decent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Posted Monday at 02:52 AM Share Posted Monday at 02:52 AM I'll probably pick up one copy - I'm a sucker I guess. So, does "New Parts!" mean, "we made new parts" or does it mean, "we found some parts of the mold and reinstated those."? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabbysdaddy Posted Monday at 04:20 AM Share Posted Monday at 04:20 AM The tires in both copies I have are the two piece tires, with dated looking rims. I think the body is very nice, probably could combine it with the Sodbuster for a more accurate undercarriage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
