*1949 Chevy Truck*
Does anybody make a 1:25 scale glue together model? I can find the 1950, 1953/54, 1955, etc. Also, what brand has the best fit & finish?

What was changed from '49 to '50? Looks like the '50 is the closest. I only have this one. It's a custom version but it looks real nice and has a straight six.

Re: *1949 Chevy Truck*
I think I have found the one I'm going to get. From 1947 thru 1953 they were called an "AD" (Advanced Design) trucks and were all about the same as far as the body. I have a real 1949 5 window pickup Classic Restomod truck and I'm wanting to put together a model that looks like my truck. I have an LS 5.3 V8 in my 49. I have found aftermarket wheels, can you buy an aftermarket LS engines for these models? Thanks.

I think that's the same as mine except with the stock parts. I see you're over at MCM, I'll be watching.

Re: *1949 Chevy Truck*
I've built the AMT kit several times, but always box stock. For those who don't switch the engine, be sure to ignore the instructions about the driveshaft, put in the other way. I've also built the Ford several times!
 I see you are using the Tamiya glue, I have not tried it. Ever since I switched to super glue, haven't looked back.
