Your command is my Wish.

Want to see a Built one??

I looked at an Opened "Fired Up" Dodge A100 Pickup. It was Molded in yellow. Even the "Flashers" (Rotators) were yellow, not clear yellow or clear red. That is why I did no0t get one then. (Or maybe I never saw a Sealed one!)

I have that one. Curbside kit to say the least!! Looks like it may also have been designed for motor, and maybe headlights!

I have one of the "Boondock Bomber" hardtop re-issues. It had those Friction Promo axles too. Even Promos I have without a friction driver have that type heavy axle. AMT switched plastic in 61, then again in 62. They had to Paint them for Gloss in 61, so changed again to cut that extra step

It was a Full size. Much like the Cruisers here at teh time. And Yes, looked like twin grills. It was definitely Not a Fuselage bodied car. (Satellite) The Pic was a small black & White in a 70-72 era Auto World. It was Identical to the drawing on the kit. The Detroit Tactical unit. That was the Box art on almost every issue. Only the original showed 2 departments on the top, and I believe the other 2 separately on the ends. I believe this was After the redesigned box art with only the Detroit Tactical unit on top I know I should still have that issue, but finding it will be the fun!!!

I remember Auto World showing a Different Fury on the Jo-Han Kit, but I believe it was a 70 or 71 Fury not a 69. I do recall it has twin grills like the Local City cruisers here at the time. They ran Plymouths till getting a Maverick around 74.

Fire Apparatus, Star Trek, Harry Potter, Avon Decanters, Dolls, I read every TREK book I can get I love Woodworking, but don't have any tools or place to work! THIS OLD HOUSE, Paper Models (Actually fit here) I also have a lot of matchbox, Hot Wheels, Johnny Lightning. TOO Many To list really!!

I just need to get one. Backdating it to look like what my friend owned should not be too hard. Depending on if the Stylized seat/back rest is Frame or add-on.

They offered both a Coupe & a Convertible. They are basically the same kit, but there are differences Besides the body, Boot covert etc for the convert. The Convert kit also included an Air conditioner compressor & lines. The Coupe has the W-30 Air Cleaner & hoses. First issues of the Coupe had a standard front bumper/grill that was supposedly modified to move the parking lights inboard to clear the W-30 Ram-Air Scoops Otherwise, yes they are the same. I have both first issues, Coupe & Convert. I have not seen the Convertible re-issued though. The Coupe body is currently offered as a Slot car kit.

I have 2 1/24 Greenlight Indy Pace cars. 67 Camaro & 04 Corvette. Nice cars. Wish I could find more of them!

True, Decals, Box Art & Price (And possible Color of plastic [59 Ford Skyliner]) are the Differences in Rev US & Rev Germany issues of the same kit.

Is this kit motorcycle or Bicycle based?? A friend wants a Bicycle (Tricycle) version to replicate one he use to own and sell Ice Cream from.

I forgot about the different Transmissions between them

Just Keep the Stock parts!! And what about the Photo-Etch?? I want one of these

Yea. I have both. the 442 W30 came out in an MPC box, them ertl released the H/O version in an AMT box. Except for the H/O hood scoop, Rear wing spoiler,console and Decals, they are the same kit. I think the degree of cross over is closer to 98% though!!

Art Anderson said he made a mockup (or one was made) to show at Trade shows but No orders were received so it was dropped, Look at the "Ghost" thread in the general section

Yes, AMT offered the Shockwave in their SnapFast 1/32 series. Not sure how accurate it was. Cab looked to be straight from the Stock Semi. I always wanted that kit, but only one I ever saw in the stores was opened and missing parts.

Here is my built. Just uploaded it to p-bucket transfer holder. I added the Rollbars from an Original issue Dukes Charger. (Same time frame) That one came with full Race roll bars, while the IROC only had a Hoop behind the rear seat. (If it even had that!! it was 79-80 after all!!) The folder for it. http://s145.photobucket.com/user/EdselDan/library/Models/IROC%20Camaro%20Z?sort=3&page=1

With Round2 buying Lindberg/Hawk, I would not be surprised to see it re-issued in a year or 2. Most of the Current Lindberg list prior to the Buy out is listed as returning to production. And look at the Announcement at NNL East Lawman 64 Plymouth And TOUCH-TONE Terror version of the Dodge A100!!

I remember seeing it in stores. Might even have tried it. Just not seen it in MANY years!! It was suppose to be from "Down-Under" so maybe one of our Aussie/New Zealander members can tell us if it is still made 'Down There!

Just Cross your fingers and Search!! They will come up, but not often. Look for them on All sale/auction sights. Just be prepared to PAY for them! Not sure who owns the Otaki tooling now, so can not even guess on the likely-hood of re-issues coming anytime soon, or ever again. Bought mine in Pittsburgh in 79-80!! Not much detail on either chassis or interior. It was designed for batteries & motor. Has a 2 speed setting too. 4 AA batteries!! I have heard it was molded in Many different colors. Mine is dark blue. The other mag reviewed a re-issue and said it was Pink!

The Trash Truck is a Phantom. Anounced, but Never released. Not sure about the Firestone trailer or Globetrotter I know Ertl did both 1/32 & 1/25 Volvo N10 Conventional cabs. Revell did a Globetrotter. I built one New!!

I found the AT Wrangler tires from the SnapFast Dodge in the AMT F-150 '92-'96 Flareside shortbox and '97 Styleside longbox pickup kits too. '95 Styleside Longbox does not have them. It is possible they are in other AMT/MPC pickup kits too.

Do they even still exist?? Haven't seen that Bar-B-Que sauce in a LONG time!!
