Maybe you're right Bill...but he knew what he wanted (even knew the part #),had the name and address of the company and has a computer.
I didn't "reject" his question, I gave him a source to answer his questions without having to wait for one of us to reply. I think that's being helpful..at least potentially
No?
"Replicas and Miniatures has no web presence or online catalog." Just a listing with name,address and phone number when one Googles the company name....among other things.
You seem to have missed this? http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/101652-revells-next-release-from-the-model-a-roadster-tool-a-3031-coupe/ Revell/monogram is the only company doing new pre 1950 hot rod kits...I don't expect that to change either.
The shocks seem very long to me (comparing the model with Bud's car) and the towers too (also they look too "modern") trimming the spring/shocks would help of course. Headlights are kinda hard to mock up on highboys (for me) but their placement is so important to the "look". Making the firewall look more like a 29 would help but it'd be a big deal to make it match the floor etc. The engine compartment looks too long to me, but Dennis used a stock 29 hood w/out a problem...the kit is so close to being right but..
The channeled version just looks wrong to me on so many levels,but I don't care for them much anyway...
Looks great except.. Front end sits too high...headlight stands/shock towers need paint...headlights too high/too far apart..and the firewall isn't right.. But it's the.kit design not your workmanship.
Glad I could help
I've seen 'em in black,grey,tan,silver and white..red seems possible in that context,I think the Vicky was offered as a firechief car at some point....
I'm sure those are AMT because of the axle bosses for the wire axles...
