Re: Revell 197? GMC Plow Truck!

You mean ,all of a sudden, they've decided to produce one now?

Why?

Re: Revell 197? GMC Plow Truck!

They've made a few squares in the past, mostly stepsides as I recall, but I think a long time ago there was a Blazer.

Still waiting on somebody to do a 2wd, and maybe an 81+ front clip.

This will make a sweet beater though, but I'd need a second 'low mile' one too...

Re: Revell 197? GMC Plow Truck!

Saw that the other day. I’ll definitely be ordering a few of those up. I have older versions of this kit although the snow plow is new. Before it was just a pick up. Not a very good kit actually that I recall. The model is too wide for its length.

They also released ’77 wrecker too and two Chevy vans of the same era. All are old kits that are being rereleased. Van 1 - SWB Van 2- LWB same basic kit as the old A-Team van

I just preordered one of these from a guy on ebay, it was about $19.

Re: Revell 197? GMC Plow Truck!

Looks like there is a company making 15x8 steel wheels with 6 lug and 4x4 hubs.... Perhaps I'll need a third kit for a CUCV! They also have steelies and hub caps suitable for the Vans...

Wonder if I could graft the 2wd suspension off the Van onto the pickup? Looks like I'll maybe need another one....
