gtx6970 Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Ok, I'm looking for a small scale 1966 Plymouth Satellite , I know there was never a kit made . BUT is there a resin version done. Im aware of the MCW Belvedere but its a 2 door sedan . I need 2 door hardtop. How about diecast , I would prefer 1/25th - 1/24th scale but will consider a 1/18th if thats my only option
Plowboy Posted December 14, 2019 Posted December 14, 2019 Could the '67 GTX be converted into a '66 Satellite? Or are there too many differences?
theraif Posted December 15, 2019 Posted December 15, 2019 the difference is 66 was 2 head light grill and tail light lens and trim

Biggest difference is grille and tail lights and decklid trim. I'm not overly concerned with 100% correct interior. But need the exterior trim to be as close as I can get. (I'm in process of buying a 1/1 car )
gtx6970 Posted December 15, 2019 Author Posted December 15, 2019 Anyone have one of the MCW sedan kits they can post pics of please

I wish I was more computer literate...but I'm not. Maybe some enterprising individual can take these pics and convert them to be 3d printed. Please !!!!

Thanks. I've sent an email to MCW. And asked if I can buy just the 1966 grill... Nothing ventured...nothing gained
mk11 Posted December 18, 2019 Posted December 18, 2019 Ask for two and I'll be interested in the extra to reconstruct my old Belvedere
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 I would like to build my old 66 Satellite. I had 2 66s and a 67 Belvedere. My 66s both had the bucket seats and console like the GTX kit and the both had the dip in the back seat. A grill, front bumper, tail lights, and trunk trim would be great to convert the GTX kit.
Bills72sj Posted December 25, 2019 Posted December 25, 2019 I like those cars as well. When I was a kid, my dad bought a White 66 Satellite convertible because it already had a trailer hitch to pull out boat. It had a red interior.
