  1. I tried the swap and couldn't figure out why the hood wasn't closing... ??‍♂️
  2. Paging Mr. Boyd. Tim Boyd to the courtesy phone, please... ?
  3. So much want! Here's a better picture.
  4. The Falcon 6 is the correct engine for the Revell Early Bronco. The Moebius engine is the Truck Six and is bigger and doesn't fit in the Bronco.
  5. As expected, the Miller High Life GMC Astro is an 'adult collectible'....
  6. Exact same box contents as the molded in silver Blazers I have, as expected. Thanks, Casey!
  7. Fireball has a set of SSIII wheels, would they work? http://www.fireballmodels.info/images/FMR-151 lg.JPG
  8. Also keep in mind the MPC Blazer is a 73-74 with the full length removable roof. The Monogram kit has the 75-91 half roof.
  9. I just picked one up at a hobby shop. $44.99
  10. ^This is exactly the reason why Salvinos JR has right on the box "18 years and older"
  11. I'm not sure which ones came in which kits as I've acquired them over the years as loose parts. I used the van caps on a '69 Blazer, didn't look too bad. ??
  12. Those centre caps are in the AMT van kits. The early pickup kits also had a different wheel cover:
  13. The Italeri trailers are both not long enough (40 foot) nor tall enough (12'6") for a modern trailer. The only thing available for 1:24 that's close to what's on the road are the tankers and containers.
  14. It is a rebox of an Italeri kit, same as the Pete 389 and Freightliner FLC.
  15. Given the description of 'Ford Monster Truck' it's probably a reissue of this one.
  16. I imagine we'll see the stock version and maybe this one? Would be great to have all the grilles available.
  17. I've glued the roof in place on ones I've built. The engine block in this kit is also oddly scaled. The tires are no good at all for this truck, but the excellent decals and eight extra tires will cause me to pick up a couple!
  18. Hear hear! ?
  19. Olson Brothers offers a reproduction wagon roof. Appears to be out of stock at the moment, however.
  20. I absolutely hate those trucks. I will be extremely disappointed if they tool one of those. Tool something modern on the road today for Pete's sake. ??‍♂️ Italeri can modify their Volvo into the current VN, Moebius can modify their ProStar into the LT. Round 2 should do the Freightliner Cascadia/Western Star 49X to make the investment stretch farther. If they absolutely need to do a PACCAR at least do the KW T680 or T880 or W990. We need another Peterbilt model like we need another '57 Chevy or '32 Ford... ?‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️
