I use superglue and baking soda for my initial “fill” sometimes and then skim it with some 1k putty. I like the USC brand because it is grey rather than red which helps with bleed through. I also like 2k glazing putty with white hardener if I have adequate ventilation available.

I can’t speak on its availability stateside but in Canada there is a primer marketed by Dominion Sure Seal called Flex Fill. You can pick it up at Canadian Tire or your local paint or auto parts jobber. I use it on all my bodies before paint and it always works well. Builds enough to do some minor leveling, comes in a large size can and can be top coated with lacquer, enamel and automotive urethane without problem.

I'd take a couple of the AMT Ford Escort kits as well. I foolishly passed on one years ago and I've never seen one since!

Great looking Datsun! Looks like it's right out of the IASC circuit back in the day

Ah I didn't know they had design rights on the chassis. Makes sense why we haven't seen it then. It would be cool if they could get the licensing worked out for a full reissue. Being through an estate can complicate things considerably though depending on how many ppl have rights to it. I guess I will just have to keep watching the swap meets for now

Killer build! Why doesn't AMT dust this one off for a reissue? Even if they had to do it without the OBS decals I'd still take a couple of em

I like it. I think it makes good use of any otherwise useless 4 door wagon. I like to see people being creative and building their skills.

I believe you can ship through Fastenall as well. Might be an option to look into

In case anyone from Round2 is watching they can just go ahead and reissue that kit anytime now

I wouldn't mind seeing the old Racers Wedge kit make a return. I know Model King repoped it about ten years ago but they are hard to find these days.

Way back when All American Models offered a resin blazer kit. They still turn up on ebay once in a while and typically sell for pretty good coin when they do.

You could drop the Revel cab onto the AMT chassis and be a good ways there. You could use the interior or the AMT fleetside bed as well but you would have to scratch build the exterior. Luckily none of it is particularly complicated in shape so it would be doable if you have some scratch building skills.

I would also like to see this kit get reissued with the fleetside bed sometime soon. It was one f my personal "Holy Grail" kits for many years
