I bought the latest issue of the old Monogram 1955 F-100 (whose origins date back to the mid-1970's) , as I've been wanting this kit for some time . I was always apprehensive of the c.1986 modified-reissue --and its subsequent reissues-- due to the (yucky) 80's / 90's "updated" parts (fuel injected 302 ; ugly wheels ; rubber band tyres ; gross tiller , etc. , etc.) . However , I was plesantly surprised to note the presence of the old engine pieces (the rare Autolite inline 4 barrel atomiser , and the not-gross-billit steering wheel among these parts) . However ... upon perusing the kit's contents , I noticed a glaring omission : the grille !! Not only is the grill not there , but its 'runner' mounts are rounded-off and smoothly-plated !! Did Revell drop the proverbial ball here ?? Am I overlooking some-thing ?? I've contacted Revell's Customer Service (via online) and provided them with the requsite information . Has any-one else encountered this in their 1955 F-100 ?
