Ive got a 78-79 Super Camper special I bought on Ebay.
It needs some cleaning up and a paint job.
Its about 1:24 or 25 scale.
I was going to paint it the same colour as my SCS but its still sitting in the cupboard.
I could probably part with it if anyone was intrested in it.

thanks Tractor Boy...i took a look at your truck in the gallery.That thing is almost beat worse than mine.Thats hard to imagine for me lol. Mine has some serious floor and rocker/cab corner rust and no bed. The motor mounts for the 300 I6 are about to break and everything.Its a big project for me at 15. I need a model to experiment with ideas without cutting my real truck up.

If I can get my hands on A '74~77 front clip I can make a mold and cast some...I did this years ago with a 1963 Ford pickup model.

Maybe you guys can find the Model kit threads I created and posted in this forum from the past 5 years and send an e-mail to Ford and ERTL (named in those threads of mine ) asking them to reproduce these trucks ?

I think you missed my first post in this thread, Dennis. It was to let everyone know that someone IS reproducing the 79 AMT Ford 4x4. The story I hear on this Model King guy is that he makes a deal with AMT/Revell to repair damaged/worn molds that they don't want to play with and is allowed to make a limited run of kits from them. I don't think it would be long before Mr Holthaus or one of the other resin casters reproduce the 73-4 and 75-77 grills and maybe the 2wd front end parts if the demand appears. Now we have to convince someone to model a 67-72 F series

Mk, I read that then I went and looked on the web site and it said: TBA

My Threads have been about writing all the Model kits makers and Ford Licensing department about the Ford company licensing companies like ERTL/AMT Revell,etc into creating these kits as I could sell 500,000 of them ...if they made them.

Here is one of them.
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=39311


Exchangeable grills is one thing.

How about make a kit from every year that they don't make now ?

Then one could do all sorts of inter-changeable design and that figure of 500,000 would go right to 1,000,000 kits in no time
