    Great build! I love the way you changed the overscaled wheels to look more like modern 20" wheels!
  2. Jordan White
    Do the mods have the ability to still edit the title on behalf of users?
  3. Jordan White
    Not quite, both were originally available at the same time. I believe the long bed chassis was actually modified for the short bed/stepside kits.
  4. Jordan White
    Yeah, decals are one of the areas where they are east to add value to a kit for cheap. Luckily it looks like they have been increasing the decal amount in other kits, so hopefully they continue that here too!
  5. Jordan White
    I mean it’s the Silverado trim, so they are partially correct!

    The wide body for the Charger is really just large fender flares, which wouldn’t really need body modification to attach.
  7. Jordan White
    You're in luck actually, I believe they will be rereleasing that kit sometime this year.

    The look doesn’t matter, all Chargers RT and up use 20” wheels. Regardless, it is a good looking kit and I am down for at least one!
  9. Jordan White
    Agreed, especially if you compare it to the box picture in the video thumbnail!

    Agreed! They could just call it a GMC Vandura Street Van.

    Since the Revell-o-gram Bronco is also being rereleased, and it being an '80-'81, it is good that the MPC kit will be an '82+ version.

    The cowl hood is from the custom phantom dually version. Funny enough, I also got a cowl hood in an opened stepside kit, albeit mine was from eBay.

    Not sure if the actual trucks were different, but it looks like in the 1998 brochure, the passenger airbags were standard for all trucks starting that year. Also, I forgot that 1997 was the first year they had them available.
  15. Jordan White
    Steve, is there any chance of updating the interior in the future to the '98-'99 dash with the passenger airbag? Also, I know you may not be able to answer this, but is there any possibility of the '95/'96 Tahoe returning anytime soon?

    Box Art is weird, but I wonder if they are including the wheels/tires from the original AMT F-150 Styleside kit (rather than the ones from the Lindberg kit)? Lindberg originals: AMT originals (not these ones specifically, but the same style):
  17. Jordan White
    It's possible they can't find all the original tooling, but they are probably combining the work they are doing for the C1500 short bed kit with this to make a "modified new tool" to give some more detail and additional parts.
  18. Jordan White
    Right, I keep mixing up which kits were originally MPC and which were AMT!
  19. Jordan White
    The one just reissued is the '78 Bronco from MPC, the same kit is the one that came with the Cougar and trailer, and was released by Model King. That one is the one you want for a 2nd gen Bronco build. The kit in this thread is of the third generation ('80-'86).
  20. Jordan White
    Good point, I didn't notice that! The most recent AMT version was actually labeled an '81 (though with the '82+ grille), so I wonder if they will give it the original grille or just leave it the newer one. Looks like the MPC Dust Devil was labeled an '82 by some sellers.

    Glad to see this coming out again too, some aspects aren't as good as the 1/24 Ex-Monogram kit, but this one does have the superior TTB setup with separate beams and radius arms!
  22. Jordan White
    I'm just glad to see a fresh source of the '95+ interior parts! The only downside is there is no current version of the Vortec engine parts right now (the ones in the S10 and Blazer are different to the fullsize trucks). Also, hopefully they do enough to warrant the $36 price tag!
  23. Jordan White
    With the GMT800 trucks, they are all 6-lug (other than the 8-lug HD trucks), and the wheels featured in the kit were available on both 2WD and 4WD models.
  24. Jordan White
    Glad to see they’re back! They’ve actually been around for a few years now, but the link vanished a while ago.
  25. Jordan White
    Not sure what the big deal is if the box art is or isn’t 100% accurate to the real vehicle, in terms of painting/detailing.
