    Monogram made one which they have reissued a few times. The most recent reissue is out of production but there are still plenty on sale on eBay for a range from 10-30 bucks, new in the box. Search on 1930 Ford Coupe.

    I just cut one up to build this...

    I have a metal kit by Huebly (sp?) for sale. PM if interested. Dennis D
     
  4. I'm not trying to hijack your thread, but I can't seem to find any die-cast Model A sedans. I would prefer a Chevy sedan but don't ever expect to find that! I want one for my three year old son.

    I had both the Hubley coupe and roadster metal model kits and I sure wish I had them today!

    Kit # 85-2062
     
  11. The only 1/25th scale plastic 28/29 Model A Tudor was the AMT 1928 A Tudor kit released in about 1964/65......MPC owned the tooling and the kit was issued ONCE as the Tudor under the AMT brand.....the tooling was then changed by MPC and released as a 1929 Model A Woody/Closed Cab Pickup with a chromed flathead V8 & pushbike a couple of times. Since AMT & MPC were merged 30yrs ago the 1929 Woody has been reissued a few times, most recently about 10 yrs ago. The Tudor kit has been available as a resin repop by various casters...................andyd

    Minicraft make a range of 1/16 scale 1931 A Models. They do a Roadster, Tudor, Delivery Van and a Pickup. They are all stock except for the Roadster that comes with a flathead as well as a hopped up A banger and all the HotRod parts you need (ie: Wheels, tires, interior etc...). These kits are approximately 10inches in length.
    A bit of a search on the web will reward you with quite a number of other cars also in 1/16 that you can use to kit bash with any one of the A's.
    There are for example a 57 Corvette, a 65, a 78 and an 85.
    There is a 1/16 427 AC Cobra, a General Lee, a 57 Chev Convertible, then there is quite a few Front and Rear Engined Dragsters.

    Hope this may help, beats the 1/24 kits especially if you want to build them with your son when he is old enough and they look a lot more striking on display.

    Cheers,
    Doc.
