chuckyr Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 I can see the conversion possibilities from the post 1955 GMC 100 pick up, but is a resin conversion out there?
Aaronw Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 RMR offers a lot of 1950s cab overs including a 1957 Chevrolet http://www.freewebs.com/rmrresin/nf125.htm
Chuck Most Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 RMR and Frontier sell the generation before the one Chucky is looking for- he's after a '55-59 stub nose conventional. I've seen a few conversions done to the AMT '55-57 pickup cabs, but none in resin. If somebody made one, I'd be right in line behind you for one. There's a local truck I've wanted to model for a long time-
Dodge BigHorn Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Frontier Resin's stuff is really nice. I have thier 1939 Ford COE.
Chuck Most Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 Speaking of 'O' scale, there's this- This one would at least give you a heavier chassis and wheels, but you'd still need to shorten and widen the nose and rework the grille like you would with the AMT '55.
chuckyr Posted May 22, 2012 Author Posted May 22, 2012 No doubt where the resin items were lifted from.
cdnmodman Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 I see Frontier is posting a couple of 50's era GMCs in 1/25 again http://www.ebay.com/itm/1956-gmc-cab-/330761917162?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d02f252ea http://www.ebay.com/itm/1956-gmc-f-model-/230823899730?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35be2d3252
