What 1/24 Kits Had Moon Tanks?

[Snake45]

Got a friend looking for a Moon tank for a 1/18 project. Says he wants a 1/24-25 scale tank because "space is limited" and he thinks the smaller scale will work for him. Maybe so, but I'm thinking the biggest one available might be the way to go.

So, what 1/24 (Monogram) kits came with Moon tanks? And/or, what 1/25 kits had "big" Moon tanks? I'm thinking I probably have something in the Snakepit that might work for him, if I had some idea of where to start looking.....

Hey Snake, I don't think a 1/25 scale tank would look right, way too small. Since its 1/18, I think I have an extra from a GMP 32 Ford, and they are smaller(width wise) than some of the other fuel tanks on other cars. I'll look for it tomorrow, and then take a pic of it next to another in 1/18, so you can see the difference.

 

Cheers,

Ok, Snake, here are a few shots of 2 different fuel tanks. and the same one, mounted on a 32 Ford 3 window. The small one measures 9/16" wide by 3/4" tall. There is a bracket for mounting on it that is part of the tank, could be removed.

 

Cheers,

Very cool, thanks! I'll send a link to this thread to my friend and see what he thinks.
