wagonmaster Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 (edited) So it seems like the newer trucks are not available yet( BIG Yet) So are any older trucks available. like the Pete bull nose or the KW equivalent. I am looking at doing a either a Super semi pulling truck team or a bonniville race team semi and I want a unique truck to finish it off. Tim Edited May 17, 2013 by wagonmaster
Jim B Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Check with Illini Replica Conversions (illinireplicaconv@ameritech.net). They have the KW Bullnose & the Peterbilt Bubblenose, and various other older truck cabs. http://apps.aitruckmodels.com/Gallery/
Guest Johnny Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Wish I could afford it. Would live to have the Emeryville. Looking for a 55? White 3000.
Jim B Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 P&P Resins offers a White 3000. It's not listed on his site yet, but he has it. How do I know this? Because I bought one from him.
Eshaver Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 I found this resin conversion of a White 3000 from Sourkraut models . I have no idea as to the availability or how long it would take to reach a customer .
Guest Johnny Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) Ed, Last time I tried to see they were out of them and almost everything else they have listed. I'm not even sure they are still in operation??? Edited May 18, 2013 by Johnny
Jim B Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 That kit from SourKraut is the cab from Tim Sherman (All Seasons Collectable Toys) that Porky bought out. I'm telling you, contact Porky.
dee Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 check out american industrial truck models (aitm) he has several older trucks
jacobus Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 ausskid has also older coe,s i am lookin for the gmc crackerbox but....? and the emmeryville jacobus
Aaronw Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 RMR has quite a few older truck cabs. http://rmrresin.webs.com/nf125.htm
mistermodel Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 other than the lonestar aren't all kits old trucks .I don't mind though
Jim B Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 LoneStar is a 2011, and the ProStar is either a 2012 or 2013. Yes, all of the AMT kits are from the 1970s and the Revell/Italeri kits are from the 1980s & 1990s. But if you want soe really old stof (1940s, 50s, or 60s); you have to go resin or scratch-build. Frontier Resin Designs has some cabs from the 1950s: http://www.ebay.com/sch/frontier_resin_design/m.html (never used them, so I cannot attest to their quality).
RyanSilva Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I agree John, would be nice to have that kit for only 30 bucks vs the 60$-??
