  1. I recently picked up a grille from an older issue, and noticed a round emblem on the lower left, under the FORD nameplate...: ...which I discovered was this:
  2. May want to check into the re-issued AMT Ford Courier, too, as the included tires have period "Firestone Super Sports" in white lettering on the sidewalls, though they appear to be the same ol' Polyglas GT base tire. Good pics in Zach's UG topic here:
  3. A few more I could use help identifying. Roof section for a '63-'67 Corvette?: MPC '73 Mercury Cougar?: Top, AMT Tuff Truck grille? #3 looks early Mustang custom-ish. #4 looks early Camaro like. I think #6, the fender, is for the Multi-Maverick?: IMC VW Beetle?:
  4. You're going to do very well here. 😊 Welcome, aboard., Steve.
  5. https://www.detailmaster.com/products/dm-2910-exhaust-shields-fuel-straps-for-trucks https://www.ebay.com/itm/153996193385
  6. Original issue from 1999, kit #85-7646?: The custom only Custom Silverado and Waverider Boat, kit #85-7666, also from 1999: Performance? 😳🤔 2006 re-sissue: Looks like Revell also re-issued the stock version in 2006 under the "Trucks" sub-brand, as kit #85-7205: 2009 re-issue, #85-7200: What is missing from the above custom version which prohibits building the truck stock?
  7. Not sure. Depends upon what remains and what state it is in. More here:
  8. Did you take that at center of the UTSA court? 😁 I should be good on bolt and rivet heads for a while. 😊
  9. "Best" is always relative, but the three main options are: 1/24 Monogram kit, which I believe has been irreversibly modified into the Pulldozer version 1/25 Revell Snap-Together kit...not great 1/25 MPC Snap kit-- better, nice body, but would need to be combined with full-detail kit underpinnings Info on each in the Trucks: Kit Reviews section.
  10. I found another tail pan piece and the left headlight housing, so hopefully someone has the right headlight housing for you.
  11. Not great, but here's an image of the AMT Piranha's trailer: A better shot, this time a screengrab from hpiguys/Chris' video review of the AMT Piranha Drag Team reissue:
  12. Love it...buts need more "so '90s!" wheels. 😁
  13. The reissued AMT Monza 2+2 was, I believe, the first Round2 kit to include the Goodyear Rally GT tires in question:
  14. I must've been thinking of something else. I'll add John G's comments from 2015 to the combo kit topic.
  15. One a current release, another a soon-to-be-reissued, and the Nova combo...? Here's are John Gruszcela (may have butchered that) comments from 2015 regarding the viability of the AMT combo kits: Daniel says: January 16, 2015 at 5:13 pm cal-Drag combo? Chevelle drag team? Indy Drag combo? Shelby Drag team? Reply JohnG says: January 19, 2015 at 9:52 am Cal Drag Combo: not beyond the realm of possibility but the trailer would require some backdating at the very least. Chevelle Drag Team: can’t reissue as the Chevelle Time Machine AWB was modified into the modified stocker. The AWB chassis used under the Chevelle, Olds F-85 and Edsel “funny cars” was not found. Indy Drag combo: can’t reissue as the Nova wagon was modified into the Boss Nova drag vehicle. Shelby Drag Team: some comments on trailer, ’68 Shelby missing several original parts.
  16. I think the AMT '53 Ford pickup/Shelby 289 Cobra kit sold well, but the Piranha double kit appears to have been a huge dud. Granted, it's two very unique, oddball vehicles packaged together, so maybe apples-to-oranges? Hopefully the Cal Drag Combo is selling well, and Round2 has the '53 Ford Pickup/Mod Socker Hauler combo in the works, so it might be possible. That Galaxie is long gone, as mentioned by John G of Round2, and I think it was mentioned somewhere several of the unique bits for the GT500 have been lost, too-- the blistered hood for sure. It wouldn't be terribly difficult for Round2 to substitute another full-sized Ford car or truck to pull it, though, and re-tool some of the Mustang's missing parts, however.
  17. Coming soon, the 1/25 AMT Ford C-900 Tractor and 27' pup trailer, with USPS decals:
  18. I have you covered, Jonathan. I don't believe they were included in any other kits. Don't forget about the matching flamed steering wheel, too. 😁
  19. I'm guessing these are the smallest Goodyear Polyglas GT tires, with different RWLs. Can you post a pic of the tread area and a measurement or two, please?
  20. I have the two tail lights and the rear roll pan piece. Just need your address to mail them out. I sent you a PM (personal/private message), too. When you log into the forum (or visit it) you should get a pop-up message that you have a PM. Click on that message, or post your address here and I'll get the parts mailed out to you.
