They've been cranking 'em out consistently since the 1967 C10 hit showroom floors. Last reissue was 2004, so we're about due for a return.

Here's a link to the kit history I did for the 67-72 GM pickup line: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=69861 With the way Round 2 works these days, it is hard to say when/if they will reissue the 72 Fleetside. I would love to see them pull out all the extra tooling bits and include the tow truck and fire truck options.

I can see the 73-74 Caprices, but the 76 is just so ugly!

I often get confused when seeing outlandish prices for things online, then I check and convert currencies and sometimes it ends up not being so bad.

I can't remember if it does or not... I'll check tonight when I'm home.

Funny, they have the same address and phone number...

Ah yes, that might be the difference. The ones I've seen weren't factory sealed but all the bags inside were unopened.

It fits. The hoods are interchangeable, too. I have previously built a 79 F-150 from a 77 F-350 kit and a phantom 77 Bronco.

I have a Model King-boxed 69 GTO funny car and a buddy of mine has the later Round 2 issued kit and both had the same slicks in them: one Goodyear, one Racemaster. I have a feeling someone mis-matched the mold inserts.

That is actually Argentine pesos, which would be about €86.

Geological engineering trainee. Which means I did all my schooling but have to wait a few more months for my Professional designation.

Hmm, I think you may have overpaid a touch! That kit averages around $50-60 these days. I managed to grab one for $30 that had been started slightly.

In communication with Scale Equipment Ltd to have this cast. They also do the sand rail and boat from the Revell sets; stay tuned!

I agree with Darrin; I love a lot of the subjects MPC produced. Sometimes the kits aren't up to modern standards but the subjects are what is the best.

MPC squarebody Chevy pickups. I have almost all of the issues.

Cruise as Shelby? Seriously?

Our show doesn't even have a box stock category, so no worries there!

A quick look on Yellowpages.ca shows lots of hobby shops in the Vancouver area, in addition to Michael's.

*shakes the Tower Hobbies magic 8-ball* Future is cloudy, possibly late January 2014...

As a warning, however, the Lonestar's initial instructions were absolute garbage. The subsequent Hudson and Chrysler 300 instructions are great. If you pick up a Lonestar do yourself a favour and download the Revell Germany instructions from their website.

Or you could, y'know, buy directly from Pegasus.

I believe Blue Oval Resin Works had a whole bunch of resin items for this body style truck, including all the different grilles, corrected 8' bed, a 6.5' bed, crew cab, visors, etc etc. No idea if he is still producing these, however.

Not sure if this helps, but I am using Google Chrome with Adblock Plus version 1.6.1 and I don't see any ads.

One ad with a SASE and one with only a mailing address? How old are these?
