Sixties Dodge Power Wagon resin ever produced? For USFS tanker

I believe the long bed version is the same price as the short bed I got, which was $75 including shipping. Check with Ron to see about exact cost.

 

I am not an expert on 60's Dodge pickups but I think the 4 headlight grille ran 64-67. Ron has a 64 and a 65 in his catalog so it should work for you, he may be able to explain the differences or there could be some internet sites that detail the different years and changes.

Chassis donor would likely be the current 78 Dodge pickup chassis (depending on how accurate you want to be) and if you want a 4WD set up, I think someone is casting a front axle/driveshaft/transfer case to be used with the 78 Dodge kit.

 

Not sure what exact color green you are after but Tamiya makes some nice spray lacquers in cans and small bottles, I am sure you can find them locally or online.

 

If you want steel wheels and basic mud and snow tires, I suggest using these from Fireball Modelworks:

Wick, I found some decals. This guy has over 5000, (Five Thousand!) decals listed. I searched just 600 and found these. They look a bit pixelated, and I think his stuff looks a bit ragged around the edges. But, it is the only game in town. I'll be buying several sets from him soon, myself.

Here are the Ones I think you'd like.

He may have exactly what you need. But, You'll have to finish the search yourself.

:)

Hope this helps.  I can second the Fireball wheels, I have at least 3 sets! All are the best you can ask for!
