1978 Model

[Kaos Photo]

Just wonderin', is there a model kit for a 1978 hearse anywhere? I can't seem to locate one, don't even know if they exist, but it would be nice to have a toy version of my baby!

I haven't seen any model kits or die cast cars from 1970-current of hearses, either they are older or the newer areodynamic ones.

That's what I figured. Oh well, if anyone sees anything, just holler at me! Thanx!

somebody here needs to learn to resin cast, then we can have scale models of all of our coaches

I thought about it, I would like a model of my 75 coach. I have 2 models of my 69 Galaxie XL & 1 of my 77 Ford truck.

That would be nice. I wonder how hard it is to learn? More importantly, how expensive it is to learn, since my coach will now receive all our extra, and not so extra, money!

Nope, nothing yet, but his work is awesome. I don't think he does requests yet, but I'm going to send him an e-mail and see if I can talk him into it! Thanx for the link!

about 2/3 way down the page he has a '79 cad hearse model, not a M-M but it would be a good start for a build.

yeah resin modeling is expensive but you can find a wide variety of vehicles that the big names won't produce

Expensive

Actually, this is cheaper than I thought it would be! And a lot easier than trying to learn how to do it on my own! Thanx to everyone for the helpful info!
