Hey all, I'm a pretty experienced armor modeler but have never built a car or truck model. I was handed a Chevy Silver ado kit and done some modifications to it ( lifting the suspension, off-road tires, etc.). Anyway, my question is... I want to put some details in the cab and bed. Stuff like empty beer cans, a cell phone, tools, and stuff like that. Where can I find these things in 1/25 or 1/24 scale? Thank you and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Fujimi do some 1/24 accessory sets, about the only option I can think of.

Hey Dan, welcome to this side of the modeling world

T2M makes a few items such as these soda/beer cans:

With the extra decals just use styrene or metal dowel for the can part, as only 2 are included in the set. Extra (different style) PE tops are also included making it easier to dress up your homemade ones.

Some of the wrenches and the like from 1:35 scale armor PE sets can also be used in this scale, all depending on what sizes you want to display. Since armor wrenches are usually on the large size they look pretty good in 1:24/25 scale too.

As Dave let you know, Fujimi makes some sets such as this one:
