i' m looking for one of these kits to build into a rough and beat trail truck. i'm after a complete, unassembled and unpainted kit if anyone has one they'd be willing to part with.
the inspiration actually came from Sam Collins Top Truck Challenge '66 Ford but it looks like copying that particular truck could be a bit difficult as the '66 cab is non existant in scale and the '62-'63 annual kits are pretty expensive and hoarded by collectors. i'd hack one in a second though if i had the chance! ;D
anyone with one of the Bigfoot kits please contact me.

No kit Dave, but I'm a major fan of TTC. Got all that were put on disc and I just ordered '09.

Motor City resin casters is supposedly working on a nice '66 pick-up in resin. it's good in that it would be exactly what i'm after but i would prefer not to work with a resin body if i could. in this case too i need very little of the truck to build the one i want to as well. when it's available i may see if i can buy just what i need or if they have maybe a blemished second that would work for my needs. i've bought resin from them before and it's very nice quality.
i have a lead on a Bigfoot kit on MCM and we'll see how that works out. i think i can take that kit and make a '79 style truck at least inspired by the TTC truck.

yesterday i got the '89 version of the Bigfoot kit in the mail. it's not the '79 i was hoping for but really i have nothng to complain about. i think the '79 style body would have been cooler, but the '89 will work too.
i didn't waste any time and got the hacking it right away even though i have other projects to work on. i dropped it as low as i could using the kit supplied springs and have a set of the So Real Iroks on it. pictures coming soon!
i'd still like to find the '79 kit if i can.anyone out there who has one and would be interested i letting it go plese contact me.
