Hartness28 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 I am looking for an online retailer that has this model in stock. Any info would be appreciated. Thank You.
Greg Wann Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 There is one on the Bay. Starting bid is 9 bucks. six days to go and 0 bids so far.
Austin T Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Best place to look is at shows venders usally have several hot rod kits.
mikemodeler Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 That kit was reissued a couple of years ago in yellow, might be easier to find if you are only in need of the truck and not the actual black kit.
Harry P. Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Do a google search. That's how I found this: http://www.vendio.com/stores/wasp317/item/model-car-kits-all-cars/revell-motorworks-76-chevy-str/lid=828444
Longbox55 Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Fair warning if you're not familiar with that kit, it is not the best representation of a '73-'79 Chevy truck. The cab is alright, and the interios isn't too bad, but the frame and bed are very inaccurate. The basic kit has been reissued many times, in various forms. This one, and its yellow and green variants, were the only ones with the the TPI induction, Centerline wheels, and the sidepipes. The other variants usually have Jackman 8 spokes (poular '70s truck wheel), 4bbl intake, and either a different style sidepipes or LRE style stacks. If you're not worried about accuracy, and just want a Chevy pickup to build, this will fit the bill just fine. You may want to avoid cetain variants, though (Ice Patrol and the Billy Carter Redneck Power Truck), as I have seen those versions get pricey.
