Does anyone make a 1/24 or 1/25 scale model of the Adam-12 police cars? (specifically the 1972 Matador or the later Plymouth)

Hello Kevin,

Try a company called policemodels.com, I have gotten kits and parts from them and they are very good and quick, good luck

IIRC, the cars used during the show's run were a 1968 & 1969 Plymouth Belvedere, a 1971 Plymouth Satellite, and a 1972 & 1973 AMC Matador.

AMT made a few Matadors back in the day, but to my knowledge none of them were the correct years for the Adam-12 car. I do know that there was a kit of Bobby Allison's Matador, but it was a '75 and kitted as a race car.

You might have better luck with the '71 Satellite. Over the years, Monogram/Revell has released the '71 as both a Satellite and a GTX, with the GTX currently listed in their catalog. This kit would need a good amount of scratchbuilding to turn it into an accurate police cruiser, but it would be a place to start.

As previously stated, Policecarmodels.com has a lot of good police stuff, but they don't stock the Revell GTX kit. If you can't find it locally, Model Roundup has it in listed in their online catalog.

HTH.

There is a Santa Claus. I cannot make out the manufacturer of this kit, but it did, indeed, exist. There was also a cox engine model that was made in the 70's.

After a bit more research, I am pretty certain that this is a MPC (manufacturer) model kit, based on the logo in the lower right corner of the box. However, it's an early kit so I cannot be for certain.

It is an early kit, and no longer in production.

However it may not hurt to throw Round 2 an e-mail (they own the rights to all the AMT, MPC, Polar Lights and Ertl molds for the next 10years), and see if:

1. The mold still exists

and

2. What the likely hood of re-releasing it might be

A bit more research located some information on the cox gas-powered Adam-12...

I am having a hard time finding this Cox Adam 12 Patrol Car. I tryied Policemodels.com any other ideas on where to find one? None on ebay at this time.

Technicaly this should be in the "cars" section..but hey, while I'm here-
Ok, 1st off, there's really no similarity between the '71 coupes and sedans and the best bet is to look for a promo car to build up...I'd bet you'll spend roughly $60-$80 on it at a guess..? I'm not sure there ever was a model of the '71 satellite - but that doesn't mean there wasn't...I just have no recollection of one. If there was think 3 digits for the kit for it's rarity...look for a promo since it'll be cheaper!
2ndly...ok, you know what a '71 satellite/roadrunner/gtx "coupe" looks like right, so here is a video of what the sedan{4 door} looks like;
'71 plymouth sedan
Sorry, not trying to burst your bubble here, but this is one of those cars that really never got to be a mainstream model. My wanted kit would be a 1/25 '76 Pontiac Grand Am.......none ever made.
