20ft Container in 1/24 from Fujimi
Fabrux replied to carsntrucks4you's topic in Truck Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Looks more like modern containers that I haul with the locks set up that way. Although it looks like it's the same height as the older Italeri container? Which is a then-standard height; most are high cube these days. Depending on pricing these Fujimi containers might be a better option for splicing together a 40', 53', or 60' container... 😁 -
I thought TVR too! 😅

A whole slew of Detroit 71- and 92-series engines are coming soon from Scale Speed Garage; prints will likely be offered by VCG Resins later this year.

1964-66 Ford F100 Wrongbed
Fabrux replied to carsntrucks4you's topic in Truck Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I have a wrongbed project on the go myself. I used a Moebius F-250 4x4 chassis and cab, bed from the AMT '60 F-100, and a printed '61 grille. I had to shorten the wheelbase accordingly. Ford was going all in on the unibody for 1961 and hadn't tooled up a wide bed for the new body. They quickly introduced the old bed for 4x4 configurations due to excessive body flex. -
Should be a fairly straightforward swap, but I'm imagining that the F-100's inner fenders will likely need trimming to accommodate the bullnose's coil spring and shock mounts.

Looking For This Chevy Van Grill

So far only overseas retailers have them and they don't ship to the US currently. I bought one, came to USD42 but USD50 for shipping from Hong Kong... 😅 I did a video, too. https://youtu.be/wrIeOlEkQAU

Revell, Round2 and Moebius are you listening?
Fabrux replied to Luc Janssens's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
This picture may be AI but I have seen similar combinations on Interstates 74/77... 😀 -
Coming Soon from Atomic City's JoHan line of new kits
Fabrux replied to thatz4u's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
A limited run of the pickups have been made, I bought one at NNL East. Steve Magnante also has one, he did a short video of it. -
Thinkful Wishing about Round2 Models, future Kits.
Fabrux replied to stavanzer's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Why not the Explorer, too? It's been a minute since that one's been around. The '71-'72 Plymouth should be viable to run. I would love to see the GMT400 Tahoe again but I suspect that AMT/Ertl never owned the moulds for it (just like the pickups, hence the cloning). The Dodge Ram 2500 & 3500 are likely in the same boat. -
He's vending at a show this weekend, that may have affected his production/shipping schedule.

The Future of Revell...for 2024 at least.
Fabrux replied to niteowl7710's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
The cab, to my eye, is more accurate than the Monogram and MPC offerings of that generation of trucks. The drawbacks are that for some reason the cab of the pickup versions of this tooling are wider at the back than in front of the doors; to get it to look right the rear bulkhead needs to be sliced in three to narrow the section under the window. Then there's the one-piece window insert with highly visible runners front-to-rear. And the deep tint in previous issues.
