I thought we would see at least a coupe new tooling automotive kits from them by now, it's around 10 years since Round 2 took over and have almost exclusively done reissues, wich is fine by me but an all new kit now and then wouldn't hurt. Especially now when Revell is under new ownership and no one knows if they are planning any new kits as everything they have released so far was allready in the works before the new owners came in...then we only have Moebius.

Of course it is...when was the last time you saw an all new tooling car kit from Round 2.

On 4-speed manual cars, automatics often came with 8 3/4 inch. Dana 60 rear end, a heavy beast originally intended for trucks. 8-3/4 inch rear end, these pictures are taken of AAR 'Cudas...am I wrong or do I see torque boxes in front of the leaf spring mounts.

Well Revell may have wanted to squeeze out some money from the F&F licensing too.

What's so special with the F&F version, it looks like a standard Yenko to me...I choose the Revell kit any day over this one as I buy kits based on quality and not boxart and the Revell kit is wayyy better.

Yeah, both the second and third movie was bad...the first is iconic tho'.

Good job. I took these at the California Hot Rod Reunion last October.

Nice work.

Yep, they work now.

Looks like the old rig for the Kenny Koretzky/Clay Millican team, it seems like it has been sitting there for a while. I belive Kenny sold his Top Fuel team back in 2007.

Turned out very nice, great job.

Nope, no pictures here either,

You are right about that. There are much available on the aftermarket now and that's great, but it's the period correct stuff for the late 60's to early 80's truck kits (wich most of the AMT and ERTL truck kits are) I miss the most.

Very nice.

I have seen pictures of Grumpy's 68, 69 and 70½ Camaros with Pro designation with numbers 100, 101 and 777. Many of the cars in the first couple of years in the new Pro Stock class was basically Super Stock cars with more liberal engine rules, so they were not much different from a Super Stock except for the engine. Slicks size around 10½-11½ inches wide.

Most of them has this type of box but I don't know who makes them.

Great progress.

Nice project.

This is a former John Force Racing trailer, a 2006 Featherlite. Lounge over the fifth wheel with curbside slideout The slideout Lower level side door Work area, view towards the rear Back of the trailer with storage cabinets Front of the trailer with access to lounge Upper deck where the cars go Upper deck storage And here is a couple of good sites for this kind of trailers with lots of photos both inside and out. https://5150racetrailers.com/semitrailers.html https://www.competitiontrailers.com/vehicle-design/?album_id=2 https://www.featherlitespecialty.com/trailer-gallery/ click on car haulers at the top filter box on the left and you get four pages with pictures of racing haulers new and old. http://www.racetrailersales.com/racing_transporters.html here are some they have for sale now http://www.racetrailersales.com/sold.html in the sold gallery you find lots of haulers

Interesting, I have to follow this.

This AG 100 suspension is a bit intricate but not as bad as the torsion bars from the early versions of the KW K123 and W925 kits wich needs a lot of patience, but it looks like you got it right...looks good.

There are still a lot of differences between the 4270 and 4300, the engine, the rear suspension, the frame rails and the wheels are some differences. The IH V-800 and walking beam suspension was on most of the following kits as the 4300, the S-series and the Paystar 5000 series all have them.

I have plenty in my reference files but I can't show all here. But here are a few. An old John Force transporter. A newer transporter for John's daughter Brittany A couple of Bernstein's rigs Antron Brown Kalitta Garlits Cruz Pedregon Jack Beckman Tony Pedregon Eddie Hill Steve Torrence Tony Schumacher I have more but I'll stop here for now.

The 4070A disappeared from the catalog 1976 when the 4070B Transtar II came and was never present again after, so it's obvious that the tooling was changed. The 4300 came 1977 but the 4270 was still in the catalog 1977, 1978 and 1979, so they had either 4270 kits left in stock to be able to issue it three more years or they could do both the 4270 and the 4300 at the same time.

Nice rebuild.
