I seem to remember many years the same thing was said about a 55 or 56 Chrysler 300.
same goes for a 1965 Satellite.
I would love to have a 55-56 Mercury, but I'm not holding my breath for it either
Maybe just MAYBE a 68 Coronet or 71-72 Demon will materialize one day
Steve.
I converted a revell 69 dart into a 68 (before the 68 kit came out) several years back using the aluminum tubing trick. Works like a charm.
Just glued the tubing in place and once the car was painted i polished the aluminum tube to look like chrome. Lenses are just elmers glue in the tube and painted with testors clear red.
About your only choice is the 55-56 Chrysler 300
keep in mind the seat pattern will be different.
Im not sure if there was ever an interior in those kits
Ive always been under the assumption the 1st Grumpys Vega built was stock floor pan and front suspension from the back of the doors forward. basically only the rear suspension was heavily modified / scratchbuilt
keep on mind the underbody from a 71 Duster has some differences than a 1966 Bcuda. Primarily front suspension differences and Im pretty sure the 66 was never avail with dual exhaust
Same goes for the 70-71 small block compared to the 66 small block as well .
Nice project so far.
When I did my 68 Dart.
I drilled holes in the body where the side markers are supposed to be . Inserted a small diam aluminum tube. .
Once the body was painted , I polished the edges of the tube that was visible and filled the center with epoxy and topped it off with the Testors clear amber paint
Yes please.
I have maybe 1 of the Ford trucks. The 72 version with no plans to buy any of the others
Odds are will not be buying a GM truck IF they make one. But will buy SEVERAL if they make a late 60s to very early 70s Dodge truck kits
Nope, But I have to admit worth every penny.
I bought 3 of them earlier this spring .
Plan to buy at least 2 ,,,maybe 3 more.
The ones I bought had no panels to make individual spaces on each shelf
Both the 68 and 69 MPC Coronet kits back then were hardtop and convertible versions. Both had the exact same conv interior tub.
The original 1970 Coronet also had a convertible interior tub, even though there was no conv version of the kit made back then
