Vintage 1/25 car kit unboxing.1981 MPC Saddle Tramp 4x4 Ford Bronco. what was in the box? 

Nice work on the wheels and tires. Good idea for the missing headlight lens. Thanks for sharing.

I'm sure this project is right up your alley 😉 Looking forward to watching the progress. Cheers Bob 👍

Wow thats a vintage kit for sure, have fun building Pete.😊

That's a very cool vintage bronco kit Pete ❤😊

A most splendid looking kit indeed Sir! I am sure with Your ingenuity with plastic, that those missing parts will be a jolly walk in the park for you Pete! No worries at all! Looking at the kit was a pleasure, Thank You for sharing it with Us all here in tubeland! I like what You have planned so far, looking forward to seeing it! Take CAre, Be Safe, God Bless Later

I sometimes forget how rough these old kits are. The drive shaft is no great loss obviously because you're right there's just really no detail in it. I'll be interested to follow this build to completion and see how you fix some of these problems.

Looks fun Pete. I was shocked to see the Fords twin I Beam suspension molded in two parts😊.

Another good project for you, I'm sure you'll make something cool out of it and add your extra details.

Lookin great Pete! Wheels are pretty sweet. Im sure youll overcome all the obstacles as they come!

Like that old Bronco Pete that grill would have you pulling your hair out trying to sand that out being a weird shape on the back it will keep the old mind ticking over have fun 👍👍

Nice video Pete 🤜🤛 😉 👍

Pretty neat old kit Pete even if it’s got some dubious pieces like the grille and headlight combo. Those period decals are cool. And the wheels look wonderful drilled out. I like it.

jolly ol kid in a candy store he is with this kit. lol. just gonna take a look at the parts turns into another build on the bench in an instant. might be a good thing the prop shaft is missing as if you lift it up a bit you would need new ones anyway. clear lenses aint to hard to make with a bit of clear or even just many layers of elmers white glue. roll bar bits wouldnt be hard to make at all considering the extreme details you have done in the past,, looks like you got a nice build coming along and having some fun in the process, makes the purchase worth the cost

Nice unboxing Pete, cool kit! Just subbed!!

Should be a nice rebuilder Pete, I don't think the mpc Bronco and the amt Bronco are the same kit, yours was issued as, a matchbox kit once, 😎👍

🤙🏽

Shellac is the stuff they spray on the plastic before chroming it. I think there's some fine metal shavings in it to help it act as an electrolyte. I was looking over my old Saddle Tramp kit when you were showing yours in this video. So on mine, someone painted the interior and exterior with a thick coat of flat black paint and the wheels, dash and seats are painted aluminum. Sadly, this person didn't understand how that front axle/differential went together and, with a pound of glue, stuck part 28 to part 27 for both sides (So I have the pumpkin glued to a non-pumpkin part, then the front of the dif glued to a non-dif part). They also omitted parts 75 and just glued the whole mess to the inner wheel arcs. So I don't know how I'm going to get that apart. Engine block is also glued together, but it seems like the other parts are ok. As for the decals, mine look like new too...but I am thinking that these might be some of the first "Plastic" decals, or decals printed on a plastic style format. These kind have an issue with sticking on the model, if they are indeed the "plastic" type as opposed to the older laquer paint type of decal. Hope yours work out ok. I like how you drilled the holes in the wheels out. I might just try that. Also, did you get my Email about checking out my latest YT video?
