  1. Yeah, you are correct Rob. The Camo paint fooled me into seeing a Stepside. Sigh......
  2. Suspension is the same as the normal kit, with molded riser blocks built in. about 7 scale inches. But it gives the Stepside you can bash with the snow plow kit. That is nice. Means you can build fleetside or stepside beds on both trucks. Should have a better intake system too, rather than that oddball '57 Chevy inspired F.I. unit.
  3. Nice Stuff! I have a original 1980s GMC High Roller kit. The box art does look to be Photo shop job. That Roadster is how I am building mine right now. Nice of Revell to put the blown engine in the Roadster. Don't let Tim Boyd see it though! SB 350 in a Ford. He won't like that. I'm really glad to see the Jeep Honcho and the '53 Chevy back. I've never built the Chevy, and I need more Jeeps. Like others have said, I'll be very curious to see what parts have been added to the Bronco.. And my 7yr old Grandson will be getting the Scooby Bi-plane.
  4. Yeah, but if anybody has either the first or second versions they don't want, I'll take them. The shape issues don't bother me at all. I genuinely cannot see the problems that have everyone so worked up. The bodies look great to me. And I like the AAR's.
  5. DM800 For me too! Also the Autocar Trucks. Be nice to have the Log Trailer back too. And, While not strictly a truck, the Cat D9 Dozer too. Correct the blank front grille, or offer a PE grille in the kit. If I'm dreaming big, the Dozer, the Lowboy trailer, and either the DM800 or the Autocar as the prime mover. Not all in one box, but tied together with a couple choices of decals for all three. Use one large-ish decal sheet, and put it in all three of the kits. Have markings for all three units on the sheet. And since we're wishing, how about a Modern, Oval Tank Trailer.
  6. How much work did you have to do to the green hood to get it to fit the new 'Cuda?
  7. A Wagon. Awesome! That is two kits I'll need. The Roadster idea that somebody suggested sounds good too.
  8. What an absolutely Brutal looking Racecar. I wonder if the Tamiya kit will be curbside or full detail?
  9. Well, I've not built the Tamiya NSX kit, but I have driven the real thing in 1990. Does that count?
  10. I'm looking for a Longbed Stepside for the AMT 1960-61 Chevy. Does your outfit make one? I'm trying to replicate the truck I learned to drive in.
  11. My Guess is that the P/Shaker will feature the 'easy to fix' parts, but that most of the first issue custom parts are really gone. That said, this is a fairly iconic kit, so I suspect that it will wind up fairly nice. P.S. Hey Ron, I don't have enough '57 kits. Got any spare one (grin) LOL
  12. Pepper Shaker! Great. At least I can get some fresh decals. The Gremlin X, a firm mebbe. Have to see what it looks like. The rest, a huge, steaming bowl of industrial strength 'Meh'.......... I'm in for the '59 Elky though.
  13. At 54, I'm one year away from AARP territory and I have the Junk Mail Flyers from AARP to prove it. They are up to about one flyer every three weeks. On the Other Hand, still no pics from Revell? I hope they don't drag out the wait until August. Round2 hasn't posted anything to the Collector Model site since June 29th. In today's online world anything less than a once a week update is just really slow.
  14. Any news on this kit? I'm ready to get one.
  15. UDLX was my first thought when I saw the first photo. I just could not remember the name of it. Thanks for helping my memory, Tim.
  16. So Nice! I really like the look of this car.
  17. Great News, Sam. Put me down for a body. (and grill if you do one of those)
  18. I'm with Rob Mattis on the Desoto Grill. A Caddy Eggcrate style would look nice too. I wonder what the Aftermarket will come up with. I can already visualize a Fastback Resin Body and some alternate grill treatments. This looks like another great Custom Car canvas to play with. Bravo Revell.
  19. I love these! What great machines.
  20. Wheels and Frame from the Beverly Hillbillies Olds might work with the Beer Wagon. I've got about five of the Olds kits, but no Beer Wagon, or I'd try test fitting them myself.
  21. Mike, I saw what you did there!
  22. That is a 1960-61 GMC. Great Project!
  23. Thanks, for sharing those pics. I'd have never guessed they were that spread out. Now I'm really, really curious to see what the "Ice Patrol Jeep" has in it.
