  1. Great to see this back. Basically the recent Heavy Chevy, with cop gear and new decals. (Dekkles, as a Guy I Know calls them). I want one.
  2. Thank You, Dave for investing both the Time and the Effort into this Forum.
  3. Yes, it is the old IMC Trailer kit. Hopefully the Decals are decent.
  4. Another good looking '60 Chevy! Are those AMT/Round2 Firestone tires?
  5. I'm 56. I grew up seeing (and driving) trucks that look like this one. You have done an excellent job capturing the 'essence' of the subject. Great Job!
  6. Great Build! That colour suits it well. I really like the choice of Rims, too. You have really nailed the Street Cruizer Vibe.
  7. Yep. I never realized that those old Monogram tires were that close to the real thing.
  8. Man the tires on that truck look almost like the ones in the kit.
  9. If I am not mistaken, both this kit and the Italeri, represent long 109" WB Rovers. The only difference (body wise) is the number of doors. So Chassis and and engine swap potential is there.
  10. Good Points, Matt & Geoff. I had not thought about either. However, from my point of view, the only place the spare belongs on a LR is the hood. Years of TV watching have had that effect. I'm only concerned with the "Look" of the build right now. I wonder if the Hood from the Italeri kit can be transplanted?
  11. So, I hope I can get a 'dished' hood so that the spare can return to its proper place on the hood. When I build mine, the first build will have the spare on the back door. Hopefully by the time I build my second one, the aftermarket will have the proper hood available. This kit looks so far, like a Home Run for Revell.
  12. Ooh, Ooh! Gotta Have this!! Looks like a Winner.
  13. My Golly! That old? I had no idea.
  14. I had the 1/72 Airfix kit, back in the 1980's. I thought it was unreal, even then. I hope your build goes smoothly.
  15. Great Zeus, people! Buy or Don't Buy! I don't care why you will or why you won't. Enough already. The poor Horse is dead from Flogging already...........
  16. Very Nice! Always gladdens my heart to see another Police Car model.
  17. Here's the instructions. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/amt-instructions/automotive-cars--pi/ford/1921-1930/amt-1923-ford-t-roa/?view=roll and the companion C-Cab. https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/amt-instructions/automotive-cars--pi/ford/1921-1930/amt-23-t-delivery-v/?view=roll and last.
  18. Yeah, that looks like about the size of it. Great Tooling extension, for them, but maybe not a great deal for us, the buyers. I'll be getting one anyway, as you can NEVER have enough Land Rovers! If this sells well, maybe it will encourage others. And, there is still whatever Revell-Germany has planned. 'P.S. I wish we'd get the Michelin Tyers instead of the same-old Uni-directional Military Rubber.
  19. Sounds like a great Idea, Luc! I cannot wait to see what you come up with.
  20. Well, Tom, if that is true about the Diecast stuff, then Good For Round2!
  21. The Multi-Piece Chassis is a bit more difficult than the Single Piece one in the '25, but other than that, it should be about the same. I'm just thrilled about having the ability to put the Rod parts into the C-Cab and Depot Hack.
  22. I'm surprised that the '23 T is not getting more interest. This kit has been "Un-Obtainium" for 40+ years, and all it seems to merit is Meh? I'm in for more than a few of these, if only for the Kit Bashing possibilities. I see at least one Street Rod '23 C-Cab Van in my future, long before Round2 does the same. (which, I fully expect they will, eventually). Besides, the Stock '23T will just look different than the current '25 T. Not Much, but it IS there. Round2 seems to have really slowed down on Model Kits, in general the last few months. I see the Diecast and Johnny Lightning stuff going great guns, and I wonder if the kit market is seeing reduced interest and sales? All these Coke themed kits are just re-issues of stuff that have been out in the last few years. (except the '53 Ford), and I'd really like to know how those kits are selling. I do, however, hold out high hopes for the forthcoming '63 Chevy kit. I've never had one, and I am anxious to see what the Kats do to the kit.
  23. Yeah, Cop Cars always seem to sell. The 'Exploder" would be a great Police Car kit.
  24. And with out wheels, what good are the Blah-Blah monster truck tires? I want that T and the trailer though.
