The GMC pickup is the Game Country truck thats out now. Other than the wheels/tires and the lift spacers and shocks/springs, I don't think the truck kits were any different than the regular releases. You could probably recreate the Bronco and the Ramcharger using those parts from the current GMC kit.

I remember seeing the Camaro and Chevelle kits in stores back then and thinking they were dippy looking - until I saw people had made REAL ones just like them!

Come to think of it, the LUV pu was possibly a unique 1 time issue, because it contained 4 wheel drive parts that weren't included in the regular issue, I think.

I bought and built the Bronco and the LUV pickup back then. Fun kits, easy to build and looked great afterwards. I too would like to have them all now.

I sold one of the LUV kits last year at a swap meet, I think I got $50 for it, might have been more. I had thought about building it but realized I have enough kits and sold it to someone who had been looking for one.

I know this is an old thread, but I just found the rest of the kits online to complete the series. I couldn't find any others.

Enjoy!

There was also a '57 Chevy. 

I made one using parts from a Camaro High Roller which I built as a teenager and had ended up in the parts box:

Pretty easy to do as I recall.

I bet yours is the one I was thinking of. I would've swore I also saw one still in the box. So, I could be wrong about the '57 Chevy being a High Roller kit.

Many years ago, I took the '76 Chevy pickup and turned it into a High Roller with the leftovers from the GMC. I still have it in a box somewhere.
