iangilly Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Not sure of its been mentioned, but a 69 Daytona hood should work for a stock hood since that's what the factory did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 As with the Starsky 'Red Tomato', the primary market for the F&F kit is going to to be the Movie Fans and Collectors. That said, I have no doubt that another hit will be made off the tool. It seems to be a pattern with Revell lately. I can't wait to see if Revell 'extends' the S&H Torino tool. I'll bet that by 2020, we will have some other kit to build based on that tooling, however. Revell seems to be playing a sharp, solid game recently so I look forward to good things. I think they'd be missing a bet not offering an AVIS RENT-A-CAR version for the Torino. That's the most popular use for them when they were new. If they want to do TV cars, how about the Dart GTS or the Cudas from MANNIX? They have the base material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I'm all for Revell releasing the '70 as the F&F car first, if it means more budgeting dollars later for us guys out here on the "fringes". Who knows...........we may yet get that new '68 Coronet hardtop done out of this whole deal since that was much of the same car during those years (1968-70).

1930fordpickup Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I am with Bill on this. Revell can release all the F&F cars they want to make money so we might get better stuff for us down the line. I picked up a Torino but not for S&H version. Just a curb side to break the building funk I am in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Suburban Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 If Revell is really coming out with a stock 70 Charger R/T next year. I'll surly get one even though I have 3 70 Chargers currently (1 built Modelhaus kit, 1 unbuilt Modelhaus kit, and a nice MPC rebuilder.)

stavanzer Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Andy L. From what I've seen and read online, the S&H Torino should be a great "Slump Buster". You could even paint some other colour besides Red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc Janssens Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Who knows...........we may yet get that new '68 Coronet hardtop done out of this whole deal since that was much of the same car during those years (1968-70). Was thinking the same thing, Bill. And the next phrase Jim quoted from his conversation with Ed Sexton at the Milwaukee NNL, fueled that idea, why else would one start from scratch, instead of using in part, the 1997 engineered Pro-modeler kit. Crossing my fingers.... Len, He told me the same thing at the Milwaukee NNL last weekend. It's an all new tool and to quote Ed "the '68 - '69 kit parts 'may' be interchangeable". He also mentioned another version of this kit would be stock. Thanks, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louie Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 CapSat 6, I'm going with you on this one. I agree totally on what you said above. Thanks. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Who knows...........we may yet get that new '68 Coronet hardtop done out of this whole deal since that was much of the same car during those years (1968-70). I'm not that crazy about this Charger as there are lots of kits from these '68-'70 Chargers already and they all look pretty much alike to me. Some of the kits, like the Revell '68 are even very good quality so I think I can skip this upcoming '70 Charger for now. BUT, if that '68 Coronet would be coming out, I'd get a couple of them immediately! That is a good looking car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
