I haven't seen a 14 bolt out there in resin, but I think a convincing replica could be made from the rear axle in the Monogram 1/24 Chevys & GMCs...

Revell is releasing the 77 GMC pickup with snowplow in June. It is a repackaging of the old Monogram kits and should have the 14-bolt rear in it. I hope it does as I have been searching for it too. I am suprised it is not available in resin. I hope that helps.

SOUNDS GOOD CHRIS, THANKS FOR THE INFO, I'LL BE LOOKING FOR THAT RELEASE, I'D LIKE TO BUILD A 3/4 TON '72 GMC, NOT SURE IF THE CORPORATE WAS IN THOSE YEARS OR NOT. ALSO, NOT SURE WHEN THE FROMT DIFF CHANGED FROM "BALL & SOCKET" TO BALLJOINT STYLE

I JUST SAW A GMC W/ PLOW ON EBAY WITH A DELIVERY DATE OF JUNE, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE A HALF TON SHORT BED, SO WE MIGHT BE OUT OF LUCK

I have made a master if we could find a good There's Alan over at Ma's Resin. He does good work at a good price. And I know he'll do custom castings for you. You could also try the guys as Missing Link or Calnaga Castings. Please keep us updated. I would really like one. Chris
