I have collected and modified a few of them. They are just under 1/8 scale IIRC, closer to 1/10, so not ideal for 1/8 unless you like 14" 1/8 scale wheels. The 16" Galaxy wheel was a good fit in the Monogram tires, I think, but very '90s looking.

Just read Harry passed away. R.I.P. ?

Yes, the Chevy Titan 90 and GMC Astro 95 grilles interchange. The 1:1 truck's grille was enlarged at some point, but that change was never made to the model.

Financially, probably not, but it's really what makes this kit unique, and I would bet people would buy it just because a vintage style phone booth is included.

Thanks for the info, Steve. Out of curiosity, and maybe you can't or unwilling to say (totally fine, too), but are the ex-Lindberg/IMC kits still being molded at the facility in Kalkaska, MI? More of a curiosity for me to be honest, so no pressure to answer...or PM works, too.

Yes, these two kits share the same base, IIRC:

I would assume the phone booth will be present, but the Ding-A-Ling(!) and the 'Frisco top we can live without. @SteveG any info you can share?

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! ?
