GoodbuildNY Posted February 14, 2024 Posted February 14, 2024 I’ve had this growing list of wants/needs that’s been growing directed towards the aftermarket. As much as I enjoy the fabrication aspect of the hobby, I have a lot of kits I want to get to and at times less fabrication would be nice. So I’m going to list some things I’m looking for that could either fill a void or make life easier on some projects. Thus the title. All comments welcome, maybe someone else has other suggestions. Here’s my list ( 1/25 scale) ; Accurate AMC 390 or 401 Accurate Pontiac 455 Accurate 67 Shelby mag star wheels ( the amt ones don’t look right to me ) ok at this point accurate is implied, 68 Shelby 10 spokes Shelby Paxton supercharger set up Shelby GT350 conversion for reissued Amt Mustang fastback 32 ford B400 and or cabriolet 69 ford Galaxie GT parts 8 track player and 8 tracks off-road fender flares for any of the Moebius truck kits Fender flares for the mid 70’s Mpc Dodge vans 73/74 cuda bumpers with out bumper guards for mpc and amt kits fender flares for the Mpc 70-76 firebird kit. The kit ones just don’t look good, stick out to far or something last is these bronco wheels ( see pic )
68shortfleet Posted February 15, 2024 Posted February 15, 2024 My first thought is why not add these things to the page that already exists for this. There is a matching thread for pickup/truck parts too. I am pretty sure tha those Bronco wheels were already asked for in that thread. Possible it was a different thread that will be harder to find. For a more helpful reply A 32 Ford B400 body already exists in resin from Jimmy Flintstone. It is item NB223.

And as far as I know the 401 and 455 are externally the same so there wont be both

Khils Posted February 16, 2024 Posted February 16, 2024 As for the Cleveland... it's already been done. https://www.futurattraction.com/
Fabrux Posted February 16, 2024 Posted February 16, 2024 Those Bronco wheels were in the High Roller edition of the Monogram kit. Resin copies pop up on eBay from time to time, which is how I snagged a set. 1

Also I am scanning one so the accuracy and precision will be better to the point of exact and as with most of my engines there will be more than a single variant. 1

I thought they look pretty good. And yes I was confused I don't know much about AMC never was a fan and I tend to fixate on what I am into, Thunderbirds I can go on for days about the generations the engine choices and differences in models. Of course that all started when I got my second bird back in 02 which was a 67 390 tudor

I think it would be huge seller with all the Ford truck kits available. 1

rattle can man Posted September 10, 2024 Posted September 10, 2024 I would love one of those 300 sixes. when can we expect them? or not? I;ve been contemplating how to convert a carbed one from another mfg.
Texas_3D_Customs Posted September 10, 2024 Posted September 10, 2024 They're already on my website along with a couple other versions

Considering I scanned one to make it they can't be anything but exactly like that now there are also several transmission options
