I saw a 1/24th Early Bronco (66-77) drag car at last weeks Drag racing at BPR and now I'm on a quest. I would like to find one of these if I can. I build old 66-77 Early Bronco's so I would like to find a body.

Barn, That was most likely made by AFX resin. Don't know if it is an active company. Page down on this link to see the stock and funny car version. http://afxnscaleresi...esin_bodies.htm If no luck, you may want to go to the Spotlight Hobbies ( formally Hobby Heaven) message board and ask there. This is where the resin heads hang out.

Thanks Mark and guys for looking for me. I do the 66-77 Early Bronco's only. The Monster truck one is 80' or later. To bad Revell does not make one yet. Matchbox does make a 1/43 scale in several styles so there is a market for them in 1/24th I would think. The one I did get from this post is OK but it will have to have a chop job to look right. I can build a wagon roof for it.
Here is one I built ground up for a hunting buddy in Montana. Mine is painted in "sandstone w/ cracks" Zolatone and works in many areas as camo. This one I painted in Granite and it too works as camo up there nice.
NO Oscar that is not Elmer Fud!

. Here are a few that have sold.http://completed.sho...82&_udhi=&_udlo=
