One of those silver and black with red stripe pinto wagons is on my list of cars I'd have if they came my way. I'd be tempted to bolt on turbo the 2.3. Of course that's the "grail" of pintos. I believe there is more than one version, though.

Other than exploding...the pinto was not a terrible car. MUCH better than the competition's vega. More interior room, smaller exterior size, and mechanically more sound in general (including rack and pinion steering) especially the 2.3 vs the gm "iron duke" (again, other than that exploding...

73/74 Duster was made but is hard to find. That dirt track car or the later LA Dart kit could be the back window/C pillar source. Rear bumper will be "fun" but is doable, however- The rear wheel openings will be the hard part. I tried that on a 67 Charger to Coronet conversion. It took months...

Wasn't the "HP" comet model the gt?

That's one a them there Brazilian Magnum LE's next to it.

Just googled- about 300 maverick aftermarket wagon conversions were made in Brazil, in 1978/79.

Oooo, maverick station wagon....

...and kind of back burner looking for a 4 door to put one of those hoods on and make a "poor man's" Mad Max MFP car.

Always liked the grabber hood.

What do they do?

Movin' along. I haven't touched my setup for years. I realized I missed a crucial issue with my helix plan and will need to bore through the wall and run the exit through the pantry! How TF did I miss that? Kind of took the wind out of that project's sails.

I've got that DVD waiting for a nice quiet evening. Supposed to be pretty good.

Yes, I know but I'm familiiar with "Jimmy Flintstone" from his resin 1/25 car body kits. Just wondering if it's the same guy. Can't be too many Jimmy Flintstones in the cottage scale model manufacturing community.

Not too many diesels around in the 1930's. One off GE/IR boxcabs maybe. IIRC the first SW-1 was 1938.

Jimmy Flintstone the resin 1/25 scale car body MFG?

You got 1930's trailers? There's a surprising amount of "adult" stuff available for MRR, especially European stuff.

What's the operational scheme? I assume logs are the primary cargo. Will you be manipulating "live" loads (IE moving scale logs on and off of the cars). I see it is "point to point", a much talked about design goal in the MRR press. However, have you considered a lift out, fold down, or...

Is that a 63?

Great. I'll need two. One to build and one for donor parts to convert an LA Dart into a stock Dart.

1/25th scale.

Who is the MFG? M2 Autoworld JL Other?

Too bad that truck has oddly styled doors and a generic grill. I bet they use that casting to haul other brand cars. I really wanted their mid 60's lifted 4x4 pickup until I saw the grill. ...and why TH did they redesign the doors on their van? Passed on that one, too. Sorry, rant over. OK...

Don't see it mentioned but- You can't sell "toys" with beer or cigarette ads anymore. IIRC that changed around 2005-ish. I got the last Rusty Wallace/Brad Keselowski 1/64 scale cars with Miller Lite on them before the ban.

I've got a couple still rolled in tubes.

Gonna need much clearer (closer) pics.

...and the Charger from Brazil (Dart based)

That 65 IIRC is an "Autoworld" product. I got one back when they were still $5.99. The last one of those I saw was almost $12 I believe.

I remember a K-10 pickup "Ice Patrol" that came with a snowmobile.

That's what I was thinking with that contraption in the bed, but I thought the twister truck was a 90's ram.
