customplassic Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Just looking for a 1979 Ford LTD II 1/24 or 1/25 model kit. They used to sell them a long time ago. My dad had the actual car and getting him a model kit would be awesome. If anyone has one they would like to sell or have a lead on were to get one please let me know! Thanks!

MrObsessive Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Hmmmm...............I remember a guy (woman?) by the name Casimira Fleszar (sp?) that made and sold a '79 or '80 Ford LTD back in the early '90's. His quality left a LOT to be desired so I was told..............the only place that something like that might show up would be eBay. I gotta tell you though.......if you find one, you may have a better model carving it out of wood yourself! Something tells me that AAM (All American Models) did an LTD but I can't remember what year? Anyone out there know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 It was a full size one Bill,,,,pretty shure it was a '75. I do remember seeing the review of the Pontiac TransPort minivan that resincaster made though ,,, one step better than TKM maybe? :roll: Okay my bad....... :oops: I got my models mixed up and was thinking about the full sized car and not the "Torino" based one. I remember when that Pontiac Transport review showed up in "Car Modeler" years ago and it was CREAMED by the editor!................ the guy disappeared very quickly after that! He had some interesting subjects though-----1991 Chrysler TC by Maserati, The '79 (or '89?) Ford LTD, 1992 Oldsmobile 98, and the Pontiac Transport.......All terribly executed!! Isn't there a Starsky and Hutch model out there somewhere based on that '77-'79 chassis? Can't remember if that one's plastic or diecast. :?: If plastic, you could maybe scratch a 4 door with some work....... Edit: I just checked around on the 'Bay, and yup it was a diecast......1/18 scale at that! Sorry guy, ...........there's just pretty much next to nothin' when it comes to late '70's Detroit iron!
