Figured I would introduce myself by posting a few of my older 4x4 kits I've made. First up is a 1937 Ford pickup that I converted to a 4x4 using axles from a Courier kit. The leaf springs came from a 55 Chevy kit, I think. Had to extend the front frame a bit. As it sits now there's no engine in there, never figured out what to do about that...!

Is it riding on standard rims as I can't tell because the pictures are a bit dark

Being an "art guy" I am always commenting on the paint but gotta say that i love the color. Don't know if it was offered back then but it sure looks factory. Great! john

This wouldn't've been offered directly from Ford, but a Marmon-Herrington conversion could probably be found at your local Ford dealer.

Although, in staying true to M-H conversions, it should have a passenger side pumpkin, ah well.

Thanks for all the comments!

mikemodeler: Yeah, they could clean up with that kit! They would do it right and probably have several versions, including a Suburban! Mar 9, 2015 21:02:10 GMT -5

casey: I'm sure they have enough future ideas to choose from already, though. THey have, what, five kits coming out this year? Mar 9, 2015 21:04:26 GMT -5

grumpy: surprised round 2 doesn't reissue the dodge adventurer warlock or fire fighter dodge stepside the would for sure clean up with those May 17, 2016 16:04:11 GMT -5
