    Man, I agree on getting somebody to resin cast an 8' longbed for the Chevy. I need one badly.

    Beautiful Build. But I was hoping for a 'Real' FJ not the modern version.

    Plus 2 on the Morgan.

    Thanks, Casey. Looks like everything is still in the kit. Now, I gotta get one.

    Just found this on Casey's Model kit instruction site. http://modelkitreviews.proboards.com/thread/984/smp-1959-imperial-convertible?page=1&scrollTo=1009 How many of the optional parts listed for the SMP kit, have survived to the Model King (and now Round2) Imperial? Does it still offer both the Rear Deck and Continental Spares?

    Great Work. Where did you find that Jeep Trailer?

    Looking forward to see what you do with this build, Jan. The Revell '37 is a great kit. What have you in mind for an engine? The Flathead Merc in the Monogram '40 Ford Pickup, is a simple, but sharp engine. Better than the engine in the Monogram '36 Ford Coupe, IMHO.

    Looking good, Rob.

    Well, from what has been said by Round2, the Toolbox and Jack that have always been in these kits, has survived into this release as well. Plus, there is the little Rupp minibike. I'll be curious to see if the extra fuel tank that went in the bed, from the early Baja versions is in the kit. Round2 also mentions a Flasher, so we may see that and the Roll bar and driving lights. (or not) When this kit finally lands in the US, it is going to be gone over with a fine-tooth comb. I expect there will be some grousing over this detail or that, but on the whole I think it will sell out quick. P.S. Tim, thanks for the Reply. I look forward to your views on this kit.

    Tim, will you be doing one of your detailed On-line reviews of this new kit? Your reviews are really the best out there, with lots of history and great photos.

    It would be really informative to see the LRW parts trees laid out next the these. A Side by Side comparison might be a real education it what might be possible in the future. Seeing how the trees were laid out in the last issue of one of the 4x4's could help too.
  12. stavanzer
    Yes! I am certainly in for these. I had a 1972 D250 3/4 Ton Camper Special. Longbed, no trim. All I need are the big 8 lug wheels, and those huge domed hubcaps, and I'm golden.

    Wow! This is Waayy Out-of-the-Box building. And it works beautifully. The Wheels are a good choice.

    I loved those books. I'd forgotten about the Chevy. "Sic 'em, Fido"
  15. stavanzer
    Great Tip on the Chain. I need to get some.

    https://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/mkiba-build-under-c/instruction_sheetsh/instruction_sheets/revell-2/revell-mr-sandman-w/ I think this kit would be a good fit for Atlantis, if they have the tooling. Hard Plastic tires on the wheels, and the truck tires are not vinyl. Not sure what they are but maybe they can be fudged? This the only 1/25 Scale Buggy kit and while very simple, it looks great. Has not been on the shelves for over 30 years.
  17. stavanzer
    I wish the tooling for THAT trailer would re-appear! Man, would that be great.
  18. stavanzer
    Yep, Goose, that is the kit I am talking about. Include the stock parts from the regular kit, and it is a real 2'n'1.
  19. stavanzer
    Very Nice.
  20. stavanzer
    I was just looking at the AMT/ERTL International Scout II Hardtop kit. Since they just ran the SSII roadster kit, give us the hardtop, include both optional parts trees, (Stock & Custom) and the generic Red AMT Red Clear parts tree with Domes on it, and throw in some Beach patrol and other LEO decals. A 2'n'1 kit, with no new parts needed. Just new decals. I'd be down with some. Warts and all, it's a great kit.
  21. stavanzer
    Wow! what a butt-load of work. It looks so smooth and professional though. Great job.
  22. stavanzer
    I'm watching this too. Great Work so far.
  23. stavanzer
    However, at this point, I have about exhausted my high school French vocabulary. It has been over 35 years, and I have lost most of it.
  24. stavanzer
    I was thinking of a Themed Gift Pac, maybe for the Holidays........ But, you are probably correct. Stand alone kits might sell better.
  25. stavanzer
    Oui, Oui.
