Dream Time: What cars would you like to see modeled?

[moparfarmer]

I guess, but realistically how many variations of any one of those can you make?  If you can't get more than one copy it will never happen..Its just the way the model business is today..

[Trendsetta68]

'69 Mercury Cyclone GT

'68 Chevrolet Kingswood wagon

'64 Cutlass 442

'67 Buick GS 340

'68 Impala SS 427

'69 Ford Falcon drag addition 

And any colonnade GM ???

1960 El Camino, come on AMT, You already have the '59, should be easy.

AMT/Round2 will never go to the trouble; Revell, I bet, won't either due to costs (remember the canceled '57 Ranchero?). We really need a good resin transkit, preferably to fit the Revell '60 Impala. 

And the OCD in me thinks the bed rails on the stock El Camino above should be slanting forward, not back!

wouldn't like an El Camino on the Revell '60 Impala chassis because El Caminos were built on station wagon chassis.

^^^Thus the cost issue. A good resin kit would have to include a modified chassis, possibly mastered from a mashup of '59 El Camino and '60 Impala parts, to save having to buy two donor kits.

Where did you hear this? I didn't even hear one was officially planned.

Speaking of '57 Ranchero's, didn't Revell offer a '57 Ranchero many years ago ? As I recall it was based on the early multi piece '57 Country Squire.  I think at first they offered a stock bodied kit and then a radically chopped one.
