He's vending at a show this weekend, that may have affected his production/shipping schedule.

Newly announced! Chevy S-10 Xtreme Scorpion Drag Coupe Long nose Mustang

This roving reporter will post updates... 😀

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.

Thanks!

Good luck to entrants! 😁

I cross-referenced the catalogue with other sources and the duplicate '68 Corvette (14573) is actually the '85 Pontiac Fiero.

The scale, given Revell's history, often gets mixed up. I could see the 'Jimmy High Roller' being a reissue of the Monogram Jimmy (that hasn't been seen in a long time) with the High Roller suspension (a version Monogram never did). But, it is listed as an '85 which is different enough from the '75 that the Monogram Jimmy kit is that I dare say they would not make that mistake. So, my bet would be a GMC version of the Stranger Things Blazer with a new suspension and wheels. As for the '78 Chevy and go cart, that could conceivably be a version of the Monogram Chevy truck with the old Revell Honda Odyssey (off-road vehicle, not minivan!).

All grilles from '61-'66 for Ford and Mercury are available from Scale Speed Garage.

Fits great. 😎

The mirrors in the dually kit are straight from the old promos, unfortunately, which are actually the S-10 mirrors (and in South American GMT400s). Large tow mirrors that mount low on the door could probably be adapted from Fireball items, but 3DVM has the regular mount style mirrors that were on 88-93 trucks (also in the original kits and the monster trucks).

Canuck 3D has the wheels. https://canuck3d.ca/product/?cd3-034

He tends to put the files up on Cults after a period of exclusivity on his website, too, for those with a printer.

The best front suspension for a 2WD wrecker would be the one from the ramp truck.
