I'm going back and forth on this one. I have a couple of the older '41 Plymouths, molded in that Turd Brown plastic. I might want one in white, just because my old eyes find that color easier to work with and spot flaws. One old kit will get the 4-door sedan resin body and minor flaws won't matter much. It will be built as a military staff car and they were painted Flat Olive Drab. The Coke items are a good addition. But I need to build a 1/25 scale diorama of a bottling plant to use all the Coke stuff I already have. You might say I'm having a Coke Overdose...

Yep considering I still have one unbuilt without the Coke crates that I probably paid $5 or less for, I'm with ya. The tooling was paid for years ago on this. IS the premium price for the Coke parts and the ever increasing price of kits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Geiger Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I have a number of this kit, as when I see them cheap at shows I grab them for the flathead six. I also have both a 4 door sedan and sedan delivery resin kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thais one's a '40, but the NYPD also used '41s http://www.policeny.com/images/18PctRMP%20(Custom).jpg http://www.policeny.com/images/41-42RMPedit.jpg I need to build one of these!! Love those old green ‘n’ black NYPD liveries! Figure we’ll be seeing more of these built (or at least purchased) now Ollie’s has them…doesn’t look a bad kit from the pics Casey posted there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Timmy Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 I just got a pile of them at Wal-mart. They ordered way to many of them a year ago and I knew they wouldn't sell. So I patiently waited and they put them on clearance...$7.50 each... ( I got 7 of them.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seven 1941 Plymouth kits for roughly the same cost as a recently reissued kit of any other car is a smokin deal in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a convert I built back around 1979 or so. The windshield frame i believe is not prototypically correct (we didn''t sweat those details back then so much). It was featured in my first-ever Scale Auto Enthusiast article, the issue #4 (Nov./Dec. 1979) although I do not think it was a typical "how to" article showing all the steps....TB 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
