We had a lot of fun racing the Scaley trucks. And if you put Paul gage tires on them you can race them without magnets.

Sarge, don't you know me by now?
"Rules? You say we have rules in this game? "Nahhh senoir, we don' need no stin-king bad-ges!"
Seriously, I just want to build the truck. I'll take any rules everyone decides on.
Dave, I wouldn't want to intrude on the guys who do those Fly/GB Track trucks that are so modern and so big, but I like 'em all, otherwise. Personally, I think the older trucks had a lot more creativity, and you could tell them apart, they don't require a stepladder to get in them, you can change the tire without an engineering degree, they didn't have interiors to make a Cadillac blush, etc.
We have 1/32nd old Fords, F-100 and Falcon Ranchero, its pretty simple to make an El Camaro from a Malibu, a Ranchero from a '57 Fairlane, even an original '59 El Camino Apache (my personal dream car), can be made from a '59 Impala convertible or sedan.

I'd be in for this
I can cast resin bodies for '59 El Camino, '50 Chevrolet truck, '49 Ford F1, '48 Dodge truck, and '76 El Camino.

If you do a '59 El Camino, I will definitely buy one. That's a lot easier than customizing a plastic model kit. It'll be tougher in smashups, too.
