Modelmartin Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 I remember that one. I tried to get one but his production run was sold out. Ron Andrews of RMR is supposed to be coming out with one. I need one for my Sox and Martin hauler.

RodBurNeR Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Far as I know Tom is still doing stuff.....and his work is tops! Not as many people know of him, but he's very....very good. http://public.fotki.com/tomcoolidge/promolite-product-list/
dwc43 Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 Would not mind having one of those trucks myself.
RodneyBad Posted October 20, 2009 Author Posted October 20, 2009 Far as I know Tom is still doing stuff.....and his work is tops! Not as many people know of him, but he's very....very good. http://public.fotki.com/tomcoolidge/promolite-product-list/ Thanks but I didn't see any of those Dodge pick ups. I did get a Em back from Tom about the Dodges. The Sweptline Dodge kits and parts are now being molded and sold by Keith Sorci, also a Denver area resin caster. He re-engineered the masters where needed to make the fit and finish better. His e-mail address is : sourceks@msn.com Thanks for your interest ! Tom Coolidge I sent a Em to Keith Sorci and I'll see what happens after that. Will follow with up-dates as they come available. Rodney.
Ben Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 I have two of the crew cabs. Tom is a really nice guy and the castings are very nice! I don't remember them being very expensive either. I bought mine with plans to build haulers for the Snake and Mongoose funny cars.
RodneyBad Posted October 24, 2009 Author Posted October 24, 2009 I sent a Em to Keith Sorci and I'll see what happens after that. Will follow with up-dates as they come available. Rodney. No response yet
RodneyBad Posted November 2, 2009 Author Posted November 2, 2009 Okay I finally got a response from him today. Rodney, Sorry. To answer your question "No." I'm in the middle of a family emergency. Today I cannot estimate when the trucks will be ready. Again my apology. Keith Darn, I hope all is well and they will be available soon.
RodneyBad Posted February 21, 2010 Author Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) Excellent News. I received a Em from Keith Sorci at sourceks@msn.com that they were ready. Ordered 2 One for a friend and one for me. 7 days later I got a package.. I don't know Exactly what yr this is but I'm perty Darn happy with it. This is Exactly the way I received it too, all flash if any is cleaned up and smooth as a babys butt. some very minor issues but nothing discouraging from ordering anything else from Kieth.

Len Woodruff Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 How much were the Cabs/Parts. One of my friends is looking for one.
george 53 Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 WOW Rod, that bad boy is NICE!!!! I LOVE off the wall stuff like that! Do you know if he has more? How much were they? They're RIGHT up my alley!!! What kit did ya use for the chassis???
Aaronw Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 Keith does a great 1950s GMC Cannonball too.
RodneyBad Posted February 21, 2010 Author Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) The resin Dodge kit cost $65 with shipping and I'm sure he has a few more. I did notice it lacks Exterior door handles. Those would have been Super but not too hard to scratch build. I have no Idea what chassis to use under it tho. Just gotta find a good truck chassis that would fit I guess.

RodneyBad Posted February 21, 2010 Author Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) So how do we order one? Just send him an E-mail at sourceks@msn.com and a big thanks goes out to Aaron for passing the info onto me.. Thanks Aaron. Edited February 21, 2010 by Zukiholic
Aaronw Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 No problem, I just hope I get my order in before the rush. I just found his reply to my email from awhile back, saying they were ready to order. It had gotten stuck in my anti-spam folder, stupid computer lets real spam through then hides the good stuff.
Jello Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 According to my book of Dodge Trucks History by Don Bunn and Tom Brownell from Motorbooks International, the grille shows its a second production 1965 and 1966 model. Hope this helps. That resin cab really looks great and Thanks for posting it. ~ Jeff

Pre 72, I never know. Guess it's just my era I've had a 75,77,85,90,00 Dodge truck. Hey Aaron, I Em Kieth again and he is gonna send me a list of others he does and is starting a website. Can't wait, his casting are top notch..
RodneyBad Posted August 2, 2010 Author Posted August 2, 2010 Nope, He never sent me anymore information. I've Em a few times about it but never got a response.
impcon Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Nope, He never sent me anymore information. I've Em a few times about it but never got a response. Please be so kind as to post if and when he does get back to you. Thanks in advance. Gary
charlie8575 Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 That is very nice. Once a suitable chassis is nominated and I have some extra money, I could see myself buying one of those just for the neat factor. Were any Dodge pickups of that vintage besides the A-100 made? I would need to see if I can find a box for it. Charlie Larkin
flamefink Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I remember that one. I tried to get one but his production run was sold out. Ron Andrews of RMR is supposed to be coming out with one. I need one for my Sox and Martin hauler. Ron at RMR did finally come through with a '65 Dodge pickup, but its a regular cab long bed pickup. Here are the first shots of it. I haven't even had a chance to add them to his website yet. It comes with everything shown in the first pic and runs $40. I don't know if he has plans for a crew cab in the future.
