  1. It truly is one of Revell's best efforts ever, and will be even better once the modified reissue coupe version arrives in 2022. ? I don't have much to add beyond what Ron Hamilton stated, but there are many pictures of the 2010 reissue here: https://modelkitreviews.proboards.com/thread/1624/revell-olds-cutlass-supreme-custom
  2. That's them, thanks:
  3. Here are the contents of the 1/25 Revell Surfite kit, one of Ed "Big Daddy" Roth's vehicles: https://modelkitreviews.proboards.com/thread/1623/1-25-revell-surfite A transversely mounted Auston engine, 10 and 12" tires and wheels, and a funky asymmetrical body designed to carry a surfboard...what's not to like?
  4. The guts are there, but you'll need to do some work for a 100% factory stock model, as Chris mentioned in the opening post. Pics here: https://modelkitreviews.proboards.com/thread/1622/25-revell-custom-cadillac-lowrider Revell seems to have produced a plethora of these in the last production run, as they are still available for $22 + shipping, despite the lack of availability of many other Revell kits.

  6. I want to say this wheels is from an AMT...Impala, maybe? '63? .625" O.D. at the lip, fit the AMT red/bluewall tires, like so: Screenshot from '63 NHRA Nationals with Dave Strickler's '63 Impala using the same(?) wheel up front for the final round:
  7. Has anyone paired the AMT slide-in camper (shown below)) with the AMT '70s annual Ford pickup? I'm curious if and how well they work together.
  8. I think I found the source-- AMT 1925 T. Screenshot from hpiguy/Chris' video:
  9. I could use some help identifying this peaked hot rod style fender. Pretty sure it's 1/25 or 1/24 scale, and the plastic looks '60s era white (looks creamier in the pics) to me.
  10. 1/16 AMT '55 Chevy Bel Air Hardtop 1/16 Revell Big Bad Van 1/16 Revell Camaro IROC-Z 1/8 Monogram Camaro IROC-Z 1/16 Monogram Flatbed Trailer (why this was not reissued when the 1/16 tractors were a few years ago is a mystery)
  11. I think that may have been discussed here before...I'll have to do some digging. It's amazing to me that Ford tooled up special fenders, bed sections, a different length rear driveshaft(?), etc. to create a specialized pickup for use with slide-in campers back then. Great reference pics, Tommy.

  14. Corvair flat six found in the AMT L'il Bo! Weevil kit:
  15. From a completed eBay listing, the Rolling Thunder-specific sleeper parts and an underside shot of a built model:
  16. "Actual retail price of the item..." will be less than $20.95. I think they were around $13-$15 on the street, so $17 or so seems reasonable for 2022.
  17. From the '78 Monogram catalog:
  18. Here's the page from the '87 Monogram catalog touting the "NEW" '79:
  19. Ed Roth's Mysterion (mostly, some additional parts have been added), repackaged as Double Trouble under the Advent brand:
  20. More here, too, including some excellent reference images:
  21. It was mentioned on the revell.de website as a future release, but the website has since been revamped, and not really for the better. Hopefully the transparent "glass" parts are non-tinted this time around for the '79 T/A, too. ?
