When I ordered mine, the base conversion was $30 and the add-on was $10.

Lots of changes. The interior is all new. The volume seller VNL760 has different shaped sleeper windows compared to earlier models. If you used the 670 kit as a donor you'd have no issues as that one just has the vents. The 780 kit would be closer to a current 860.

The ease at which the Moebius parts interchange with the AMT suggests to me that it may be intentional.

The engine has to be deep enough in the chassis for the snorkel to clear the hood. You either have to press down on the engine really hard to get it to snap in place or trim the mounting tabs on the water pump. IIRC they adjusted the tooling and the newer releases have been corrected.

I do believe that one of the marketing gimmicks of the Longhorn was that you could put your camper in and close the tailgate.

There was also a Datsun pickup with the same trailer and wetbikes

No top in the pulling trucks, sadly.

Still need the all important steps...! ?

Sergey, I think if you search for chassis you should find what you need!

Catch you there, Steve! ?

Look to be Mercury Cougar wheels. From the MPC '71-'73 kits.

They're in this kit.

The console is a seperate piece. The only other kit with the bench seat was the Hardcastle & McCormick GMC.

Thanks! ?

How about some 22.5 truck wheels that I can't seem to find in scale? I can't find good pictures of the Volvo one but the Kenworth one is easy to find...

Oh, oh, this one too! ?

Um.... ?

That would be a reasonable assumption.

Several different colors in the chassis were used up until the early 90s by which point they switched to a uniform light grey across the board. The engine would be a Ford design of 358ci but are usually built by a specialty shop or in house by the biggest teams.

Were they actual sleeper cabs, though? PACCAR and DTNA offer small sleeper looking extensions that are extra storage. Very common for logging, scrap metal haulers, etc around these parts.

The Packard chassis is probably beefier...!
