The 1953 Ford F-100 3 in 1 is available once again in a vintage box offering. Russ Amott takes a look at this classic kit.

James, thanks for getting this up and running. Maybe I will call for an "Old pickup" campaign when I am ready to build this.
Great nations do not fall because of external aggression; they first erode and decay inwardly, so that, like rotten fruit, they fall of themselves. The strength of a country is the sum total of the moral strength of the individuals in that country.

I love that idea! ...but then, I love every campaign idea. I'd be interested after the Chevy vs Hemi campaign. I Built this kit a million years ago, as a teen, and it'd be nice to give it a proper build sometime.

Excellent review Russ. Thanks for doing this. The optional Mopar engine is a cool alternative. A patina and light custom build (Wrenchmonkees style) would be pretty cool.
