Wagoneer81 Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 (edited) Terryk2003: My High School ride was also a '67... An F-250 Camper Special, 390, FMX automatic. Same color as the box art truck. Wish I still had it. Edited August 26, 2014 by Wagoneer81
Chuck Most Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Love it! Same color I want to paint one of mine once they're out- like this one only in nicer condition.
tooltas Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 same here would do some thing like greasemonkey's shoptruck or the nicer one the green one that they did.
mk11 Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Love it! Same color I want to paint one of mine once they're out- like this one only in nicer condition. Well, the hubcaps will definitely be accurate for that F250 mike
Chuck Most Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Well, the hubcaps will definitely be accurate for that F250 Shhhhhhhhh..... I'll be using those hubcaps on the long bed version of the kit to disguise the fact that my "F-250" only has five-bolt wheels, but don't tell anybody.
peekay Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Box art this good can open my wallet before I'm sure if I really need the contents or not!
Platerpants Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 very nice now if only i had this thing to build i preordered it a long time ago.... But hey all this waiting means they ought to get it right
Wagoneer81 Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 I've heard that shade of green refered to as 'Sea Mist Green' and 'Seafoam Green'...
impcon Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) The hub caps are definitely 3/4 ton caps. Hopefully, the model will have the proper ones. Edited November 1, 2014 by impcon
my80malibu Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 My half ton had those what is the difference,
mk11 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) While you may have had similar looking caps, the difference between this original F100 cap and the above cap in 1:1 is about an inch in ID ...these were also made with an argent finish mike Edited November 2, 2014 by mk11

With all due respect, the hubcaps in the drawing will not fit on a 15" wheel. I've owned many of that generation of Ford truck and my dad bought a 71 F100 brand new and the 15" wheels had the caps in the photos that mk11 posted. He is right about that style of cap being smaller than the car pictured on the model. I don't know how that error got past Moebius, but hopefully the model has the right caps which by the way, are the same as the dog dish caps on the 68 Ford passenger cars. The car and the pickup also shared the same "Custom" rear quarter scripts on the cheaper models. It was a friend of mine who spotted the eror and he too has owned more than a few F series trucks. I am not trying to start an argument but I know these trucks pretty well.
bigbluesd Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Looks great....man I hope our hobby lobby get them in... Does Hobby Lobby carry Moebius? We just got a Hobby Lobby in the last month or so finally, I was absolutely amazed at the size of the modeling aisle but I don't recall seeing much other than Revell/AMT?

We can only hope.

Michael Moore Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Moebius makes it easy to buy from their site. Hobby Lobby here is quick to clearance kits and cut back what the carry. It makes for some "happy accidents" but I cannot depend on them. If it helps Moebius I will buy direct and pay a little more. They are a great company.
Chuck Most Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Hobby Lobby won't carry Moebius kits because HL takes offense to their line of "monster" kits, or some nonsense along those lines. Moebius has tried time and again to get their products into HL, and HL continues to refuse. One more reason to avoid that place like the plague.

I just can't pass on the 40% off coupon. I had never noticed that they didn't carry Moebius kits. But then, I was never looking for them either. If they really want their kits there, they could just sell their automotive kits to them. More than likely, the reason HL doesn't want to have the monster kits is because they don't sell like automotive kits.

Yes I can see where the would think images of film monsters of the 30's and pop culture icons would go against their "projected selves". But they were cashing in on Halloween in July last year. Oh well there is always Michael's?
thatz4u Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) they may not carry Moebius, but here locally they do carry Model King. Do you see were this is leading? Edited February 10, 2015 by thatz4u
