As others have stated in this thread, the kit does indeed have it's roots in the MPC Switchers 32 sedan/phaeton kit and was converted to a sedan delivery in 1975...kit *PIC*

In Response To: A Little Help here!...... *PIC* ()

I got my first copy of the kit (Keep On Trucking 32) at the 1975 NSRA Street Rod Nationals (Memphis). Since there were two kits that had just been released with NSRA licensing (the other being the Evil T (which was a weird mash-up of The MPC Switchers T roadster and the Tognoti King T).

Personally I find the kit to be a good starting point for sll kinds of projects. I chopped the top on that first kit, later winning my age class at a local(ish) contest with it. Since then, I have built three more examples in various styles, ranging from Street Rod, to Pro Street, to gasser.... Sadly only the gasser survives. (my younger brother destroyed the first two and I sold the Pro Streeter).

A Little Help here!...... *PIC*
- If I remember correctly, that started out as a Switchers kit. *NM*
- Would the be a good one to kitbash with the 'new' sedan body from AMT - and yes, 2X on Revell probably being better...but wondering just the same *NM*
- Dave is correct. It's the MPC "Switchers" sedan/phaeton kit. The rear door and seprate side window blanks were added and it was re-leased as the "keep on truck'n '32" at least as far back as '75. So, basically the street rod suspension was pretty typical for the '70s and , ,

- Re: A Little Help here!...... Thanks for the help guys...Nice Build Marty,,,That's along the lines I'm thinking of for mine! *NM*
- Overall, it's a pretty nice kit...
  - What if a feller would put the MPC/R2 '29 Roadster Pickup/Woody body onnit to make a kinda hiboy? *NM*
    - Frame is quite narrow. It works for those kits, but I wouldn't necessarily use that frame as swap material *NM*
    - I think Retired Soldier or maybe someone else put an AMT '23 Roadster on it with good results, so maybe a bit small for the Pickup *NM*
