"FLIP NOSE / FLIP FRONT " kits, there's a bunch out there.

[Greg Myers]

Having just dusted off an unfinished "Flip Front' MPC '57 Chevy, I got to wondering how many different kits there are out there with the ubiquitous "Flip Nose / Front" ?

 

This one is the same kit as the "57 Chevy, just a different body. Same chassis, engine (BBC),

 here's another

There's a bunch more. What have ya got ? Remember there's a bunch of reissues in different boxes too. 

[Greg Myers]

And interestingly enough they use both "Flip Nose" and "Flip Front". 

[Greg Myers]

Then there were different trends through the years, remember "Pro Street" ?

I can't see your pictures on this particular computer. Did you get the MPC Mako Shark II/Custom Vette?

MPC (later AMT) '57 Corvette?

Revell Anglia and Thames?

Monogram '66 Chevelle?

Was Revell Orange Crate flip-front, or did the whole body flip on that one?

In this case it's not your problem. Photobucket is blocked here, though I can see the pic titles.

Can't see pics either. Photo of cat with PB saying photos not found, click for pics.

 

The only flip nose kit I ever had was the 1/24 Chevelle.

The AMT '33 and '41 Willys kits too (unless they're hiding up there behind a cat), plus various Revell drag kits (Anglia/Austin/Henry J).

If you click on the cat picture photobucket says its been moved or deleted.

That topper on the Datsun pickup, is that the same one on the Luv pickup?

The shells are different in looks & size. The Luv is 1/24 & the Datsun is 1/25.

Greg... are you moving your photos in PB or rearranging your PB albums in any way after you post the pictures here? Because if you do, you're breaking the link and we can't see them.

[Ace-Garageguy]

Greg...that flip-nose '40 pickup is slicker than snot. Man, I like that one. Nice hinge work. 

[louie]

Yeah, that stance is perfect. Really nice. 

Thanks.    Jeff
