*Very cool video Skip~I really like it~This reminds me of the trailers I worked on when I worked at M&P Truck and Trailer Sales for almost 10 years~I made a lot of wild Truck Conversions there to match horse trailers I painted to match the trucks~Seems like throuhout the 90's there was lots more disposable cash available to do more extravagant builds for customers*

Yeah horse people are kind of another breed. We build barns for some of them and they want some crazy stuff sometimes. They're usually the hardest customers to please as well.

@@skip-o-maticsmodelmania5774I recently did a bunch of research on theses kits, that extra spoiler I think it's from the cobra kit, on this release they did a terrible job on the rear wheel wells they don't even match the other side, I have a old built up of the regional fire fighter and there's a lot difference in-between the two bodies and the turn signals, and have a old Dino Don built up and it's actually a 75, 75 the turn signals, hood, and the gas cap is above the body line, and the emblems are different, the rear wheel wells are a lot nicer on those. you are right about two different kits for the pro stock & street version. The 77 annual kit I have, the trim and emblems are different. I think both kits have the traction bars, the trim on the latest release of fire fighter is more like what the 77 has, they retool the hood back to a 74 but but the gas cap, trim, and turn signals, if you are interested I can send some pics

I wish I could see more of those old candy colors and metallic colors I used to see from the 70s and 60s. They were pretty nice. Good eye because this turned out awesome. These Lindberg kits are for experienced modellers in my opinion since they require good or even advanced finishing and painting skills to make em pop. Good job!
@skip-o-maticsmodelmania57746 ай бұрын
Thank you friend. Would be nice if they brought back some of those colors, I guess for now will have to use automotive paints with the airbrush to get those colors again. The old Lindberg kits do require extra love and attention to make a decent build.
