Here is a Revell Baja Bronco kit I just finished.  I know this is a plastic kit, but it’s something you do not see in diecast form. This was a 1971 model. I hope you enjoy.

John you are correct about finding a 1/24 scale Bronco. I recently found a 1969 by GreenLight in 1/18 scale which is really nice.

It looks very nice.  I have always much preferred this original design to subsequent ones.

Thanks to all.  Since diecast collecting has come to a halt.  Plastic kits are the next best thing for me.  I really need another room just for the plastic.  I don't think my wife will let me have one though.

Love it!  That Bronco would look great paired up with FM's Jeep Renegade.

Nice group of 4-Wheelers! Your blue Jeep build fits right in. I have two red FM Jeep Renegades.  One is displayed top up, and the other is displayed sans top and doors with the windshield folded down.  Lots of display options with these.

@pete-rovero Pete really cool set up. I like the way you use the canoe on the sedan delivery. Unfortunately I don’t have the trailer, wish I did. Dune buggy was one of my favorites at FM came out with. Always love those back in the 60s.

A friend of mine had a dune buggy back in the early 70’s. They used to be all over the streets back then, seldom seen today. However, I see one nearly every day parked on the street near my house.
