    Just make sure to sand the top of the roof smooth, cuz remember that my copy of this kit showed the engraved remains of the vinyl top from the GSS release.

    Hi, I wonder if someone here has old photo's of what heavy duty roof-racks looked like on 70s work (not custom) Vans, and if were they bolted onto the roof, or mounted on the drip rails. Thanks in advance for your help Cheers Luc

    Heard that "Mini" is also a though one.

    Yes, but the big question is, is that market big enough to carry the investment for what will be a faithful re-production of an old tool, vs how big the market is to support an all new detailed kit, cuz "cutting the tooling is where the bulk of the investment goes to.

    They can retool every kit ever once released by Amt/Mpc/Ertl/Lindberg/Imc, by copy paste, but then you end up with a brand new old tech kit, IMHO the big question is the market waiting for this or is it more demanding in terms of detail.

The same goes for Jo-Han....

    Some of my friends use, black masking tape, cut into strips to mimic the rubber seals.

    More power to those who like this kit, but to me it's too toy like, do have a build IMC tanker trailer, I bought soly with the intention to use it as a base for a Ford C-series tanker truck, project 1000+ on my in my head to do list

    Very nice, and with your build you gave me the answer to the question in my head, what color to paint my copy, though I think I'll do my chassis red oxide primer; Again very sharp build!

    Eye candy, just the way I like them trucks, worn and kinda brutal, top job Ville

    The gist I'm getting is that they got more on the plate then they can handle as a company, so things are delayed and while that happens sometimes more interesting read more profitable things move up on the priority list, doesn't mean they're abandoned. Also seems my 250k was right on target when Dave mentioned the tooling cost for the Pro-Modeler Charger at Modern tool in Windsor Canada. One thing I was surprised to hear is another topic I mention in my 250K question, is about parts arrangement and ejector pin marks, good to learn that Pegasus is giving the matter some thought

    Glad I got mine 10 or so years ago...

    If this rumor has some merit, then IMHO it would be about who's going to to the R&D on anything automotive, but again pure speculation on my part. the only guy who can shed some light on this is Dave Metzner, the Moebius brand R&D manager.

    My first new car was almost a Manta, the last ones which were produced in Antwerp plant 1, but decided the then all new Omega instead, with a huge discount. Anyway beautiful built, great car from days gone bye...

    I have a couple of the original Monograms, IMHO a great kit, the only let down are the tires which should've been like the ones in the '87 T-bird kit, then it would've perfect ?
  18. Luc Janssens
    true, maybe someone with connections could contact the powers at Round-2 advising them to leave the extra parts in there.
  19. Luc Janssens
    Had that one as a kid.
  20. Luc Janssens
    that's a steal!

    I'm glad I picked up a copy 10-15 years ago.
