    Heated trailers have those holes, too. The tank is mounted a little bit farther in so the skirt can work properly. The other aerodynamic feature I see on trailers is a big plastic spoiler-looking thing underneath in front of the wheels.

    Side skirts on van trailers have become so common now that to not have them would be a special order. Combined with the tails gives an improvement in fuel economy when deployed. My company only has the skirts, though.

    Eaton Fuller transmissions have been the standard for years and wouldn't have changed much externally since that kit was made. They're not synchronized and popular variations are 7, 9, 10, 13, 15, and 18 forward gears.

    Pretty much the only differences between the two are the hood, grille, tailgate, and fender emblems. Same kit otherwise.

    Has anyone else received parcels lately where the packing material is used bubble mailers? ??‍♂️

    Rumours about reissue are apparently true! MPC-885 1972 Chevy Racer's Wedge upcoming release...

    If you ever wanted to know about the commonalities between the various Revell pro/street kits, here you go! https://sprue.xyz/2020/06/07/dobbertin-pro-street-chassis/

    Is that in later seasons after they rebuilt it on a DeLorean?

    Apparently this is actually a modified reissue of the Esci 1:24 kit. hpiguy recently posted a preview build up.

    Love those Brazilian Chevys. Look like the missing link between the 73-87 and 88-98 trucks. ?

    I just checked my own stash. B/M, 2002 mold, kit 30085 B/M, 2003 mold, kit 30085 Z/28, 2013 mold, kit AMT635L All good. ?‍♂️

    Not that I've ever seen...!

    Monster Mash also appears to have a bare body, too! ?

    I have the Pulldozer; I'll take pictures this weekend. ?

    Curiously the Blazer for the catalog shoots has the correct door handles! I like the catalog Pulldozer graphics better, I think.

    I'm sorry, did you write the article? My original title was pretty specific, I thought. You're the first one to complain in eight years. ?

    Found another multi-pack:

    Thanks, Hakan! I figured if anyone on here would find holes it would be you. ?

    You might be better off getting another rear axle and converting it to an offset front axle.

    Any 1950 Chevy pickup with four wheel drive from the '50s would be an upfitter like NAPCO or Marmon-Herrington. Those components might look different than what you'd find in any kit. Swapping the body onto a newer 4x4 chassis is fairly common and the Deserter chassis is the easiest one available.

    If this set was released after 1991 they could both be 1:24 Monogram kits in Revell boxes.
  25. Fabrux
    That was indeed a typo and has been fixed. Thanks for catching that. Whoa, that is interesting! It is listed as 1:25 scale, suggesting that it isn't related to this chassis. It does look like a rebox of the Pennzoil Firebird with smoked windows, though. If only there was a number on that box!
