>circa 1975 Pontiac Ventura , 1/32nd Scale

[1972coronet]

Whilst trolling eBay for kits for sale -- and to check my bid status on a pair of vintage Renauld "Sea & Ski Spectaculars" sunglasses -- I came across this gem.

I've subsequently emailled Round2 regarding the Lindberg line of 1/32 scale G.M. Colonnade kits , et al. , and am hoping for a "yes" answer , as-in , "Yes , the tooling exists , and plans are to re-release these kits..."

Wouldn't that be cool if they actually reissued these. I imagine they're fairly simple kits, although I've never actually seen the contents of one of these kits. I ordered a brand new 1975 Chevy Nova SS 350 (same basic car) way back then. First new car I ever owned.

That kits pretty decent - body proportions and such look good. It is very simple and the "glass" leaves a lot to be desired. I don't know if the Ventura was ever reissued?

Dated a girl who owned one of those. Lot's of memories from those days.....

Would love to see these re-issued, simple but fun cars.

That Ventura would be a cool one, even if it was in wrong scale. I know I'd have to get at least one of those, but the other kits in the same series are would be really interesting too...

Odd that yesterday when I posted my response, only the first picture of the box showed up. The other two photos weren't showing. Body molding looks pretty good though, thanks for posting these images.

I'd buy a Ventura if they reissued one. But, I'd really like to see them reissue the Buick Century and Mercury Monarch.

I , too, have been wanting the Monarch ...

... just like I wanted it in March 1976 when my parents bought a brand new Ghia 2-door ( 351-W , etc. ) in silver with silver Landau top and cranberry red interior @!

My folks bought a '75 non-Ghia Monarch 2-door in the spring of '75. 200 cu. in. straight six. Three-speed. A radio as the only option. In an ugly rust red color. Still I want the model.
