Hey all. Any one know if a 1/25th resin frameless dump trailer is available? I seem to remember one from some years back. Thanks for any help. Have a great day. BobbyT

I'm for sure getting a case of these.
-
Well! Looks like I'll be buying a case of these. Very,Very cool.

Hey all, Just wanted to give some cudos to Ron at Ron Coon Resins. I wanted some Accel supercoils For some builds. I found a few sources but they all were out. Found Ron Coon, he calls them "old fashion coils". They are exactly what I wanted. They need painted, but thats no big whup. I got a quick response from him and fast shipping too. He has lots of cool parts, check em out. BobbyT

I lined up the Revell 67, Lindberg 66 and AMT 67. I think Ployboy is right about Lindberg being slightly underscale. The Revell is 1/24th, Lindberg and AMT 1/25th. Still, these 3 are close.
-
Ya know, after looking at the pics again I also was wondering how Lindberg compared to the Revell and AMT 67. Think I'll check.
-
Pics of the trees in the latest release. I have a fine camera, but I suck at taking pics. Also, a side by side with the Lindberg 66. I understand the Revell is 1/24th and the Lindberg 1/25th. I am by no means an expert, but the differences between the two seem huge. That said, The Revell I built a few years back looks ok in It's own display case. I think now though my Revell 66's are parts fodder.
-
Yep, I've heard of that. Tried it once and it didn't turn out like I wanted. I can do it with scribing, just takes a bit of time. No coffee of course before.

Yeah Rusty, Placing the two bodies side by side showed some similarities. But the differences were very apparent. Using the Lindberg kit to make this style of car will be no problem. The hardest part for me will be cutting the front clip. I take blood thinner medication and I get paranoid that my knife will slip. Here is a pic of the 67 Chevelle I built last year. I based it off a car that was at drag week in Cordova a few years ago.

I'll try to get some pics this weekend. Ya know, if you put this body next to the Lindberg 66, there is a HUGE difference between the two. The Revell 66 looks way, way bigger. So much bigger I am going to build the Lindberg in the Revell style. Tilt front clip, straight axle in front 4 link in the rear. I'll use some of the Revell parts, but not many.

But wait, upon closer review. The tree that has the different seats and the different hood scoop is what I think is a clutch driven powerglide trans, a duplicate rear axle and the blower belt.

I've gotten the 66 Malibu last weekend. Mine has 2 hood scoop choices, the 2 decal choices, 2 interior choices of Seats, Roll bar. No blower. Centerline wheels and same tires as before.

The last reissue had them -- the one with the green car on the box (c.2013?).
Revised (corrected) Revell '70 Torino GT Reissue album | Funman1712 | Fotki.com, photo and video sharing made easy.*EDIT* I'd have provided photos of my copy's contents, but it's buried deep in me stash.
Yes sir, The Street Burner issue has these parts. I'm wondering if this latest release will have them as well.

Do any of you folks know if the 70 Torino will have the Ford Motorsports valve covers and the headers?
-
My debit card will be busy.

Thank you all for the great ideas. Now to start looking. Stay safe everyone. BobbyT
-
Thanks all for your suggestions. I would like to use them all. My house doesn't have enough space though. Too many model kits packed in plastic totes. That lawyer book case though, hmmmmm. Stay safe everyone. BobbyT
-
Correct Cobra Man. Pioneer plastics make very good cases. I've bought several. They don't make them large enough for a 1/25th truck and trailer together though.
-
Hey all. Hope everyone is safe. I've been looking at the dutch truck modelers fotki. I have seen pics of semi trucks with trailers in clear display cases. Anyone know where these can be found? I've found custom made ones, but they are north of $200 bucks. I'd like to avoid that if possible. Thanks for any help. BobbyT
-
Nice job. Does this kit need the rear axle raised like previous Revell funny cars?
-
Okay, got your info. First time I opened the box. This kit is HUGE! Tire diameter is 2.656, Width is .623, and opening for the rim is 1.620 . Hope this helps you. Stay safe.

Hey all
I'm looking for information on the 1/16 scale Monogram/Revell Peterbilt and/or Kenworth tires. I need to know the outer diameter, inner diameter and width.
I'm trying to find some different rear tread pattern tires, more aggressive, and possibly front floats. Also Peterbilt style wheels for them.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
Ron G
I have both kits. I'm at work now. If noone replies, I will look when I get home. Have a good day.
