junkyardjeff Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 I built one about 10 years ago and never cared much for the custom grille and hood inserts so is there any way to get stock parts.
Chuck Most Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Just get the stock version of the kit. Original run- Or the reissue, which for some reason shows the old SMP long bed on the box but contains the newer-tool kit-
junkyardjeff Posted December 27, 2015 Author Posted December 27, 2015 Never knew there was a stock version,all I could find was the custom.
disabled modeler Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 The stock versions shown here are pretty decent but there both short beds...only way to get a long bed is get/find an old original issue of it which is a nice kit in my opinion.
Chuck Most Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 Never knew there was a stock version,all I could find was the custom.The custom version seems easier to come by, even though it (to my knowledge) hasn't been reissued, unlike the stock one. Might just be there's more demand for the stock version- let's just say you weren't the only one put off by the parts used on the 'Street Machine" version. I do see the stock one online quite frequently with asking prices in the mid $30 range, sometimes less. Other than the stock grille, hood pods, intake, exhaust, steering wheel, and rolling stock, it's the same base tooling as the custom one you built.
