if your looking for a '70's era ford, pickings are kinda slim, AMT makes one, but unfortunately they picked the super rare and super ugly long wheelbase camper special. i have seen a couple of these trucks where guys move the rear wheels up to where they should be and it looks much better...

and there is some '80's and '90's, lots of versions, most are just re-boxed, or have new decals added, but there all basically the same. there's also the "melted brick" fords from the mid '90's that Revell puts out

and of course there's the super expensive, but super nice F350 Super Duty that Meng Models is cranking out

if you do buy a Meng, watch out, they also make a 1/35 version of the s.d. and it's much cheaper than the 1/24 kit

speaking of, i reg swap 1/24 and 1/25 parts. it's always a cr*pshoot on fitment, what's 1/24 for revell, may be diff than 1/24 amt, sometimes 1/24 from diff man. will fit right into another makers 1/25....like i say, some fit, quite often some mods are needed

but mostly, you need to build chevy's...
