90-96 Bronco in scale?

[Rusty92]

Wanting to do a Bronco with a twist. I’d use the AMT Lightning kit to make a Lightning Bronco. Don’t see there being a 90-96 Bronco in resin or kitted... anyone have any info? Or a write up on how to do my own? 

Thanks!

Plopping just the word "bronco" into the Rocket Fin site's search window turned up this 'unknown manufacturer' result:  http://www.rocketfin.com/resin_product.cfm?id=3404

I saw that, checked there first! But it’s unknown who makes it and searching the web hasn’t led me anywhere.

I think AAM made a resin one back in the 90s.  Not sure. I've thought about making one by combing parts from an AMT '92-95 pickup and an MPC '80-82 Bronco kit.

That’s what I have thought as well. It wouldn’t be too bad if I just take my time.

As Rob said, combining the AMT 92 to 95 F150s and the MPC 80 to 86 Bronco would work for the mid and late 90s Broncos, but also be sure to use the tail lights from the pickup truck for the correct smooth style tail lights used on the later model trucks and Broncos rather than the earlier grooved style.

87-96 tail lights

Also, and I'm not sure what years other than they are also the 87-96 style tail lights, and I think maybe the change happened on the 92-96 trucks as my 1990 F350 has the above style, but some of the smooth tail lights also have a wraparound reverse lens. 

 

Also, for the 87 to 91 style Broncos you could use the Monogram/Revell F250 or F350 pickup and on of the Monogram/Revell 1/24th scale Bronco kits for those years.

Hey thanks for the info! I would have looked over that detail. Appreciate it. I come from a GM household so no ford stuff ever.
