1/25 Revell F&F Brian's Ford F-150 SVT Lightning
stavanzer replied to Casey's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Rob, I think the Dom/Vin pic was chosen because it is more familiar now. It will sell more kits, IMHO. But, You could be right.- 21 replies

So, JIm. Did Revell add in any new parts, or is this just a 'decal only' upgrade?- 21 replies

Kit Review! 1963 Mercury Meteor Annual!
stavanzer replied to RDean58's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Thanks For sharing, Mr. Dean. I always like to see these posts. -
Too Bad, this Bronco is the Wrong year for a Longmire Build. The R/M kit and this one bracket the target, but miss on either side of it. Oh Well......
-
And, what's wrong with that..... Can never have enough Lic Plate Decals. ?

So, who is going to be the first to say, "I'm sorry" for all the vitriol directed at Dave / Moebius for the "Chopped Roof" Tempest-in-a-Teapot, that prompted this re-work? Dave, Thank You for listening. I'm sure this will pay large dividends to Moebius going forward.

For those who may never have seen this kit "in the Wild' so to speak, here are the instructions. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/amt-instructions/monster-trucks-pull/amt-wild-hoss-ford-/?view=roll Not a lot of options in the box, but It was better than the MPC Bronco, IICR. You will get two sets of wheels, bare plastic & chromed. Chrome Tree is small. The original deals were not all that expansive, but I guess will be bigger in this issue. I'd expect the same tires that were in the recent Jimmy/Blazer kits. A fun kit for sure.

'Strata Blue' Chevy, eh Bob? We drove Grumman Step Vans on our Flightlines at Kadena AB. I was an F-15 Crew Chief for 2.5 years. Wish I had pics of our Flightline. Alan Alexis (USAF 1983-1988)

Amen, Brother Snake! -
Thin Pickings in this video. Maybe Round2 is saving the Good Stuff for December........?

Well, I can see that the Wild Hoss Bronco will sell like wildfire, and Caprice will sell out quickly. I have the "Lee Eliminators" version that was last released, and I will be very curious to see what decals they add to it this time. I hope that the Round2 "Expanded Decal Sheet" hits on most of these kits, Especially the '64 Merc and the Wild Hoss Bronco. If it takes a Coke Tie in to get the Dodge D-50 kit back in production, "Bring It On!". I believe that having the Ramchargers Dragster & Transport truck together will be the first time these kits have been in one box since the 1960's. I am truly surprised that the 2005 Escalade did NOT get the Coke Treatment. If ever there was a kit that seems a natural fit to the Coke Tie In, it would seem the Escalade would be it. My favorite announcement from this list is the '64 Merc Marauder. One of my favorite kits. Maybe Round2 can include some decal referencing the Parnelli Jones "Pike's Peak Hillclimb"winning Marauder's from 1963-64. Anyhow, a great 3'n'1 kit from the first "Golden Age" of 1960's kitmaking. (P.S. Round2, You will need to include a pair of the GY 'Suburbanite' snow tires for the Pike's Peak Racer, to simulate the truck tires that PJ ran on the car.)

Here is HPI Guys review of the kit, but oddly for him, no build up.

My 3 year old Grandson likes the build, but tells me it is a Firetruck. He is most adamant about it, too.

Best use of the '58 Fury body, EVER!

Sweet Build!

Dirt track racing.
stavanzer replied to clayton's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I love me some DTR! Although my best friend has an asphalt racer with a bumper sticker on it, that reads "Asphalt is for Racing, Dirt is for growing potatoes"....... If we could generate enough interest, it would be great to have a separate tab for DTR! -

Amen. You have captured the very reasons why I'll never be on Facebook. -
I should have gotten one then...... Drat! Oh well, Ya Snooze, Ya Lose!

Tom, I hope you have a Racer's Wedge build started to hold this car. The combo is a guaranteed winner at Almost any show. It is something else! Fabulous Detailing. The small bit & pieces on the front, sell the whole thing.

Neat Build of an almost forgotten kit. I know, I've never seen one before! Really Sharp Build.
-
Truly Awesome build Dan! The stripes really set it apart from other rigs.
