Thanks for the info, Steve. 🙂

Maybe we should just let it die, like JO-HAN did in 1992. It's just kind of sad what become of JO-HAN, even it was only the name and a bunch of leftover, N.O.S. parts.

Zooming in on the Round2 supplied pic above, it appears the tires are the stryene version, painted black. The outer edge of each tread block on these tires is out-of-scale and distinct, so I would bet on getting the styrene front tires, molded inner and outer halves, just like on the '65 Mustang AWB. IIRC, the topless Olds Cutlass F-85 AWB was reissued not too long ago, right? If so, which front tires were included in that release?

@SteveG has there been any further consideration regarding re-issuing what remains of this kit? IIRC, the "Sundancer" version was listed on the Stevens Int'l 'site, but didn't stay long. Would be nice to have it back with the OHC 6, warts and all.

One thing about this kit (and its sibling the Hay P/S T-Bird) is the modern design ('90s) small block Ford V8, which is a very nice base engine for use in just about anything which was designed earlier. The 1/25 AMT '67 Mustang's single barrel intake manifold fits nicely in the valley IIRC, so don't dismiss this kit based upon the Pro Street heavy parts breakdown.

So, is it official that the Lindberg name/brand, for all intents and purposes, for automotive releases is now a thing of the past? Not saying it was the wrong decision if so-- quite the opposite, actually.

Yes: AMT-1417 1/25 Chevy Titan 90 Truck Cab

Looks like the 1/25 AMT '69 Ford Galaxie Hardtop is being reissued, as kit #1373. I don't this has been available since the *gulp* RC2 days?: AMT-1373 1/25 1969 Ford Galaxie Hardtop

Coming soon: AMT-1368 1/25 1966 Dodge L700 Truck w/Flatbed Racing Trailer

2WD front suspension (and I suppose, some modification to the existing rear suspension) would alone generate a tidal wave of sales. While Revell has done a good job of covering as much of the market as they can with the 1/24 ex-Monogram GMC (well, save for the 1/16 Chevy we all want returned to closer-to-stock 😊), the void for 1/25 Squarebody stuff is immense IMHO. Heck, even reissuing the 1/25 MPC Blazer again would make folks happy.

Yes:

Thank you! 😍

Kinda...well, I replaced the molded closed cowl vent slots with a p/e grille section, but the Photobucket images are long gone, so maybe not much help: I still have it however, so I could dig it out if necessary. Just lots of fitting, measuring, and careful planning involved.

Which, is fine. Having the option to purchase either or both an original or re-creation is a luxury we should appreciate while it exists. That capital injection Round2 received a few years ago is paying serious dividends for the automotive modeler, so enjoy it.

Can you post some pics of them, please?

Very, especially in that condition. List them on eBay and let the market dictate their value.

A quick Google search of that e-mail and this person is attempting to scam other forums as well. I don't think this forum is going to miss them as a member, so break out the ban hammer in this case. https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=541544&start=270 Choikdoi KVRist 259 posts since 11 Jun, 2020 Post Thu Feb 09, 2023 4:22 pm 5 Quote New user scammer... BUYJT65. Messaged me with a similar scam that's been mentioned before: "You must have missed the post of louis09 about Tone2 Nemesis 2 for sale some days ago... I asked him about it and he said it's still available with him. Here's his Email brokermills@gmail.com" My response: "Why is the post not there anymore? Any links to that users profile on here?" No reply. Google checked the email address they'd given me and it popped up with several other forums where it had been used in scams. Don't do business with this user / email, or anyone offering plugins in the same way they did. EDIT: They got banned already. Oh boy, scammer has been busy: https://www.google.com/search?q=brokermills%40gmail.com&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS915US915&oq=brokermills%40gmail.com&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i58.8142j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Have the tires' sidewalls been smoothed over? IIRC, the existing sidewall characters were countersunk into the sidewalls.

What was their response after you contacted them and asked?
