Monogram does a stock '30 5-window (basically the same as a '31), and RMCoM does the already-mentioned chopped top body for it.

Hadn't thought of that- I was going to put the wrecker body on a LoneStar with a Models By Dave resin cab.

Positive thoughts going your way, Kevin.

IIRC, though, these kits come with quite a few extra parts. I seem to recall either this kit or the Bill Signs kit coming with a second frame, a complete sleeper, and a headache rack among other parts. Even if they're selling for three figures, once you take that and the overall quality of the kits into consideration I don't think the prices being asked would be unreasonable at all.

I saw a few of these on clearance a while back and passed on them- thanks for making me regret THAT decision! Looks pretty good now- can't wait to see it after the rebuild.

Thinking of doing a Pullman and a Raymond, both Model T-based. Obviously the Pullman is more T-based than the Raymond.

Supply me with the kit and I just might.

Good. You know I'll be watching. And not in a creepy kind of way or anything! And what I said about Marmons applies to Big Horns as well.

Nice! Those wheels really improve the look of the car.

This coming from a guy who likes to post about Randy Travis and dogs....

If it's legit, it's about time!

That Impala roof looks so natural on the Corvair! Wonder if it might have looked like that from the factory had GM introduced it a few years earlier.

Forgot that. I wonder if they left those in there just so the buyer wouldn't feel (as) cheated. I do agree with Jim on the AITM transkit- if you ask me the truck modeling segment would be better if more guys out there were building Marmons!

I see quite a few of my favorite trucks in this post.

Love it- the idea and the quality of work being done.

Lovely!

Worst case scenario- you can always build it as a Pete. If you look at it as a Peterbilt and not a Marmon it's actually a very nicely done kit. Then it only has an incorrect grille.

Bad news... that isn't a Marmon. It's a Pete 359 with a goofy grille. So there's actually quite a bit they 'missed' on that one. That's all they did- they basically tooled up a different grille and a set of Marmon decals for a Pete kit and called it a day. And you thought the '70 AAR 'Cuda was bad...

VW Dave suggested the name "Bubble Butt". Think I'm going to go with it.

Every time I peek in on this one, I'm even more impressed!

You can't build it if you don't have it. Simple, really.

Sadly, we lost Ray on April 26th of this year.

Well, well, well... lookie here. Stude #2 done blown a bubble...

Looks good both ways if you ask me. That's me... Mr. Indecisive.
