Plastic models

[rjewkes]

I Like building plastick models. I was wondering if ERTL Ever made any?

I know somebody did back then.

Are you talking about 67-72 ford truck models? None were ever made of our series , but just about every other series was produced in plastic . Maybe that could be another new venture. There are several cottage industry model manufacturers in business, might could get one to make us a body to use with existing kits. I will try to look into this, unless someone already has done this.

Cool ! I Have been Wondering If This Was Possible Get Them to make Crome Striping Seperate. And What Not and one set of tags per state. With optoinal sid marker spots on bed like for 70-72 that can be covered by a patch to look like the 67-69. Maybe Like They Did For the T-Shirt even have www.fordification.com tag for rear window and various state inspection stickers for windows. And Logo from the t-shirt for the doors.
oh and a driver(kieth maybe)wearing The T-shirt(prepainted i'd suggest for the driver).

All Interested Could Pitch In.

I been to a couple of model sites and put the 67-72 ford truck in the suggestion box. There were some other people that had put that in there to. That was about a year and a half ago still no replicas of these hansom trucks.

Only toy I have been able to find that is close to a model is I have a Traxxas Revo (RC truck) and found a 67 body made of lexean that you paint yourself and comes with a few stickers for the grill and doorhandles and taillights. Was thinkinabout cutting 2 apart to make a crewcab!

Wow where do you get one of them and can you get them 1/25th scale?

I have a model frame from a 75 chevy van model that the body was chewed by my friends dog but the frame checks out could cut it to fit.

I've seen those ones with the camper shell show up on ebay. I don't remember who made them.

Do you have r/c cars? I have 2 one is a Team Associated R/C10Gt the other is the traxxas T-Maxx. I used to race both of them but it gets expensive and the money is better spent on my other hobby-ford trucks. I have always wanted to find a 67-72 body for the T-Maxx though.

I have seen "matchbox" ford trucks...On ebay...I've seen
a variety of styles...IE: some are firetrucks, work trucks,
etc....I'm not sure if they were the same actual "matchbox"
brand, but about that size...I think they are made in England
mainly, which I think the original matchbox was....MK

The Body I bought that is on that truck will fit on your t-max I have the newer one by traxxas the Revo. You have to cut and paint them yourself. i listed the link up in the earlier posts. I think it was close to 20 bucks plus paint from the in town hobby shop.

hehe its cute, it doesn't know what year it is. its a "67" with a 68-69 grille, and the bed reflectors of a 70-72 But hey, I ain't complaining, at least they've given these trucks a nod, which is more than you can say about most model companies.

Here are the two trucks made by Lesney Matchbox back in the late 60s/early70s.

I have heard from someone on a modelers site that might consider making a resin kit Ford truck. He is currently working on another project, so we will see.

Right now on my T-Maxx I already have Custom body on there, but it is the new F-250. I also have a crowd pleaser body on the Gt. Also I have a matchbox 67 highboy that I got when I was 5 years old that I traded another kid like 10 cars for because I wanted it because it looked like my dads truck.
