leafsprings Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 '73-'79 Ford 8' Styleside. '59 Ford pickup front end conversion, '67-'72 Chevy C 60, '60-'80 GMC tilt cab. White Freightliner cabover '61- '69.
oldcarfan Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) Chevy is pretty well covered in plastic kits, but one thing I really want is the '55-'57 GMC pickup. Also definitely the '73-'79 Ford 8' Styleside, a 6' bed and especially a step bed version. With the loss of Modelhaus, I would love to see someone put out the Ford '57-'60 and a '61-'63 stepside.

ranma Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 International Pickups from 1959-1975, Travelalll's from 1960-70's Scout 1961-1970 Scout II Traveler.... IH Non commercial products are seldom done.
leafsprings Posted October 20, 2018 Author Posted October 20, 2018 IH trucks do have a big following, even though they stopped making pickups in '75. Here is a model ahead of its time, a 1 1/2 ton without the big wide fenders and running boards found in other period trucks.

leafsprings Posted October 24, 2018 Author Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) Will add on the to Ford resin wishlist since there are so many pickup kits out there. The 8' Flareside and 9' Flareside (F 350) would really open build opportunities for '53 thru '79 models. Edited November 24, 2018 by leafsprings

disabled modeler Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 International Travelall and long bed pickups for sure...we owned a few of them.

IMO, a '59 front end conversion would be a big improvement, the only different parts would be the hood, emblems, grill, separate bumper and gravel shield. Edited November 24, 2018 by leafsprings
1st 700 Quad Posted October 26, 2018 Posted October 26, 2018 (edited) I'd love to see some Studebaker offerings. The 46-48 M-series with the vertical grille is a personal favorite of mine. The following one, the R-series is especially attractive and then there's the Champ that shared the front sheet metal with the Lark. Even before these was the gorgeous Coupe Express of 1937 vintage......fabulous. Steve Edited October 26, 2018 by 1st 700 Quad
57peppershaker Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Be great to get a resin front for the Revell 99 Silverado to convert it to the facelifted 03 -07.

ranma Posted November 9, 2018 Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) OHHH Love that scout traveler! Hope you start making that one soon, and the Travelall as well! What would be the base (Starting point)for a '71-75 IH Pickup? Edited November 9, 2018 by ranma

Goose1957 Posted November 14, 2018 Posted November 14, 2018 Yes, please offer these Internationals. They look great. I'll buy a few. Jeff
mikemodeler Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 That Travelall and a similar D series pickup would be most welcome.
ranma Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 I posted about some International Pickup's . Little did I know that First Gear went and just issued a '63 International 1100 pickup

gotnitro? Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 Since I lean towards heavy construction trucks there was one my bucket list and just recently filled by Jamie R owner of moluminum..the mighty Oshkosh F or P series cab. This cab makes a fantastic plow or mixer ...and is now available..heres it is I was impressed how well the parts fit together, and how smooth it is..usually resin parts have a fine texture..these parts are glass smooth. Now to decide.. Just thought I'd mention it

leafsprings Posted December 11, 2018 Author Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) An accurate set of 20" 6 lug Budd wheels has been on my wish list a long time. Edited December 25, 2018 by leafsprings
leafsprings Posted December 25, 2018 Author Posted December 25, 2018 Corrected 359 fenders that actually roll down to the bumper!
