  1. Is this kit a short or long bed truck ?
  2. So there is a 1972 Shortbed truck made ? if thats the case it would save me buying the two 1970 Kits above then buying a seperate or 3d printed grill
  3. You have my interest These old SS cars are my primary interest ( even though this is not an 'OLD ' SS car)
  4. Thanks for the pics I know who owns the Butterscotch 71 RR Ive been to that show many times , even had a car in it years ago . My current car received an award in class there maybe 10-12 years ago
  5. Be curious to know who is making the decals for this car
  6. The car ran both ways
  7. Thanks all. Looks like I can combine these 2 and get exactly what I need
  8. Ok. I won that one Now see if i can cone with another one Or even just rear slicks would do in a pinch
  9. This might work, If I can come up with the 4wd stuff I can add a 3d printed 1972 grill easy enough Provided the upper and lower trim is on the body in this particular kit
  10. Is the 70 F100 an actual 1/2 ton 4wd? Box art shows 3/4 ton 8 lug wheels No it will be stock white steel wheels and beenie style hubcaps Rims on it are simply to make it roll while under construction Truck is 360 4spd
  11. Is the side trim molded in the body on the upper trim level kits or separate glue on pieces ? I could maybe get by with the short bed kit and add my own trim and buy a 3d printed 72 Grill But its the 1/2 ton 4wd stuff that is an issue I would really like to make this build just like the actual truck , If at all possible
  12. This is 4wd , but its an F250 and I think , Long bed truck
  13. This kit has the correct trim style I need But its long bed 2wd
  14. Im currently restoring a real deal 1972 Ford F100 Ranger pickup for a local guy 4wd short bed truck And would like to build a model replica for his desk I see there is a 1972 Kit avail, BUT it long bed 2wd I see there is a short 4wd kit,,,but its an F250 what are my options Are any of the kits a short bed ? Any of them half ton 4wd , or Any aftermkt people making the half ton 4wd pieces ?
  15. Very Nice. Im on a vintage SS kick at the moment so odds are this one will come close to front of the line pretty easily
  16. nice And I'm not even a FED guy myself
  17. We will see on Friday. Im not interested in over paying for one just because of the box its in . As I can get the current Belv kit and swap in the Revell Hemi ( Ive already done a test fit. It will drop in like it was made for it ) And there are lots of people parting out hemi Dart kits or I have a few extra Sox - Martin 67 GTXs I can part if I need to , ( Also cheap to buy ) I already have one Leal kit here ,another one coming. But would like a 3rd as I have decals for it Plan is 1= Butch Leal SS ( I already have his AFX car built from a long ago Good Stuff resin kit ) 1 = Ferris Motors ( preferably Larry Griffith 4spd version if I can get the decals altered from the Jack Ferris auto ) 1 = As the Jenkins driven Burgess / Black Arrow car A 4th version on my todo list by chance I possible - Do the Sox Martin SS car before it became the Paper Tiger 2
  18. Thanks The 1/1 cars ran an 8mm solid core wire, I think these ( pre wired dist from Morgan Automotive detail ) fit the bill about right I wanted to glue the exhaust pipes to the side of the headers, like on the actual car ,,,,But I cut them off ever so slightly short to do so
  19. Its already on my watch list
  20. Nice, I keep forgetting about the Comet I have the decals, a 64 Comet kit and a partial Thunderbolt kit to use to build it ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,someday.
  21. Nice job Great kit - decals suck
  22. I got into a mood thus weekend and Made offers on and was accepted on 2 Dave Stricklers 1965 AFX cars, still sealed. Also ordered decal sheets to do the Mr Norm blue/silver car and the Bobby Harrop 1965 Dodge AFX cars for the above Also,,,Made an offer and bought a 1965 Butch Leal 65 Belv, autographed by the man himself ( at least so says the seller )
  23. Very nice. I want to replicate the hauler. Where did you get the truck ? And the 68 RR, But that one is a ways down the to do list , Next SM car for me is probably the 68 Barracuda and/or the Paper Tiger AFX cars
