I'll vote for a couple that have already been mentioned, '37-'39 Zepher & the Airflow. Both way overdue & I believe would sell pretty well. Other than that just about anything other than a Ford & I like Fords but they have been done to death.

I'd buy at least a couple of these kits if they were made... 1939 Delahaye... Just GORGEOUS...!!!

I like all of the suggestions, particularly Art's list. I would add one that has not been mentioned-a Sharknose Graham of the '38-41 era. I would also love to see a '34-37 Buick. Preferrably a Roadmaster Convertible Sedan.

34 Plymouth hands down.but some pontiac's and olds's studabakers,packages sure would be nice.

A '39/'40 Mercury (pictured above) , Lincoln Zephers , '35 , '37 , + '38 Fords . More Chevies , Pontiacs , and MoPars . Studebaker Land Cruisers ('34 + '35) . Fixing the Pryo Trio with the right details . The Grams and Hupmobiles made from Cord Dies I see as doable .

How about the correct Factory Stock parts for all those "ROD only" Revelle / Monogram messes . I am not liking being excluded from some Great and not so Great Vehicles .

I would build and buy more Art Deco if available . I am being realistic as the Investment /risk for a non selling Resin wolud be drastic . I agree with all the above . Sigh ; alas , take what you can get . Thanx ..

Would love to have a kit of the '39 Zephyr...

If the cast looks anything like the `39 Zephyr pictured above count me in!!! That would be a great companion for my `49 Merc led sled.

’37-’38 Sharknose Willys. I know there's a company that makes a conversion for this, (Can't think of who at the moment, but the one I remember wasn't of very good quality).

A full zephyr 3n1 hot rod kit with a 4 carbed v12 flat head with dual exghust lake pipes some stealies with some 4 crossnar hub caps from moon amd dont forget the spotlights. Maybe even cop car light options

Just a few highlights, or we could be here all night

Complete kits:

Cord L-29

A proper retool of the Auburn 851 speedster

Edsel Ford's 1934 speedster

Phantom Corsair (this could possibly be done as a transkit of Monogram's Cord)

Bugatti Type 57 Atlantic Coupe

Miller 91

Miller-Ford Indy car

Figoni & Falaschi Talbot Lago coupe

Dymaxion

Stout Scarab

Transkits:

Any Figoni & Falaschi body for Heller's Dalage and Delahaye kits

For Monogram's Duesenberg SJ:

Weyman Boattail Speedster

The "Twenty Grand" sedan

SSJ Roadster

For Monogram's Bugatti Type 35:

Correct wheels and radiator for an original Type 35

Engine and body to make a Type 51

For Monogram's Lincoln Continental:

'37-'48 Lincoln Zephyr

'42-'48 Lincoln Continental

For Monogram's 1930 Packard:

1931 Packard 840 Deluxe Eight Convertible Sedan by Dietrich. This one right here

For Lindberg's Mercedes SSK:

Trossi Roadster body and a nice set of photo-etch wire wheels

Photo-etch wire wheels, and a set of cycle fenders

Heck, just a decent set of wire wheels would help a lot.

Now THAT would get my interest .

Me personally it would have to be something out of the ordinary.

To get me to open my wallet , and As much as I like the cars of the 30's.... I have virtually no interest in main stream makes / models ( fords, chryslers, or GM's ) give me something from the top coachbuilders of the day and I 'm in

You and me both. Heller already makes a stock Delahaye, but a resin Figoni & Falaschi body would be very nice

Of course, anything built up with Saoutchik coachwork would be awesome to the MAX!
