1937 chev pick up

[Lorne]

I found AMT's 1937 "Orange Blossom Special" truck. Is that the only 1937 chevy truck out there in 1/25 scale?? Trying to duplicate a killer pro street truck!!

Gotta say thanks again to DrKelly for the purchase on the Orange Blossom Special, provided me great stuff!! Still looking for another one (spare). When I cut this one up, I need another 37 truck for the "oops" factor. Was hoping someone was casting in resin!!??

Thanks

FYI, years ago Tim Boyd did an article in the other magazine about turning the OBS closer to stock(though still a street machine), which might be worth a look before you start yours.

Thanks Mr. Metallic I have every issue of the other magazine will have to check it out

The OB Special is the only one I know of.  It was orange soft plastic; not the nice stuff that most kits are made of today.

I recently used an Orange Blossom Special kit for a build. The cab is a little off with the windshield being too small for stock and the side window are angled too much. However, this would make it perfect for your build.

Danbury Mint made a diecast '37 Chevy pickup and a heavier-duty truck (2-ton, maybe?) in 1:24 , while Liberty Classics did a pickup collectible band in 1:25 or 1:27 scale.

Note apparently DM also did a '37 GMC pickup.

I want to see how you replicate those gorgeous flames.
