Big scale E100 pickup

[mnagatani]

The E100 has been on my radar to make as a 3D print.  I got started on this and wanted to throw out some images---  1/8, 1/12, or 1/16 is my thoughts.  This one would be for the scratch builder of course.  I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Very cool. A long neglected subject.

I would love to see this in 1/16th. It would be downright nasty with a Cobra 427 in it, or as a wheel stander ala Gas Monkey. Gary

You and another person on instagram would like to see it in 1/16.  Scale is not an issue in the print world. I am curious in how popular the 1/16 scale is?

I like the scale because there are a wide array of kits to borrow from, not as many as 1/24 or 1/25, more that 1/12 or 1/8.  As a builder that does not do a lot over the top subjects it is a nice choise. As I age the eyesight is not as good as it once was. But most of all I like the size and the level of detail that can be or not added works for me. Gary

Wow, I just LOVE the way that looks!! I think 1/25th would be the most sale-able. Love to see it in 1/12th too! BUT sign me up for a 1/25th version!!!

Well someone scratchbuilt a large Dodge A100 body out of wood for radio-control application.   He's built other large-scale R/C trucks bodies in this material as well, so an Econoline should be do-able.

And then again someone else kitbashed an old large plastic Teenage Mutant Turtles toy A100 to make an R/C van.  Body could be reworked into an Econoline.

I would love to see is E100 built as a pro tour type, dropped low with aftermarket suspension and a coyote v-8.  This would be  totally different  built "out of the box" model!!
