Hello,

That kit has not been produced in many years, the last time it was issued was a Coors beer truck, I think in the mid 80's, the first time it was issued was in 72' I think. They will not be re-issued again or so I have been told as the master molds were altered to produce the KW Aerodyne kits. The K-123 is a hard kit to find and be ready to shuck out close to or more than 100.00 bucks for one if you can find one. At some point in time I may cast one of the cabs in resin.

How about the flat roof conversion for the aerodyne? That would be cool!

You might try Fred's Model World. He gets truck kits in every month. You really have to start checking from the 1st of the month until he updates his list. It could get updated on the 1st or the 5th,you never know. I don't know the link but if you type Fred's Model World on Google, it should come up.

Didn't Revell of Germany do a flattop KW cabover K100 at one time? That could be a possibility.

I talked to my local hobby shop and they said that AMT was going to reproduce the Kenworth K-123 they just didnt know when there was no realease date. Im gonna keep looking it just would so happen tobe one of the hard to find models I would want

This morning, Dave Burket (Model King) posted an announcement on the Spotlight Hobbies board that said Round2 will be reissuing this kit (as well as the Nirvana Chevy van) in the near future.
