I don't know if this is the right place to post this, if not sorry and please move it.
I'm 53 years old, still young but I couldn't wait 20 years to see other new 3 speed truck. :sorry:
I fell that people at Tamiya are looking this forum :LOL:, and I want to do my little contribution, just an idea.
Below I have placed a picture of the modified body I used one year ago to place in a new 3 speed chassis, and I really think that's realistic to think that we could have a full kit from this.
I did from a new clod body, but I'm sure the powerful Tamiya company could improve the old mould to get a terrific Chevy, new lights, bumpers...etc. Perhaps some others wheels, I think that the Hummer ones chromed would be a terrific idea. Most of us already have the Izusu and Pajero ones and they are easy to find but chromed Hummer aren't.
I added a Bruiser rear view, what I had at hand and wipers, also could be added a lot of improvements Tamiya knows how to do.

I have read in this forums lots of ideas, a Dodge truck new Chevys...etc but being realistic with the foots in the ground, this can be done.

The past year I bought two F350 now I ordered two Hilux and of course would buy two Chevys, and I saw others in the same way, most of people I have email with and because my work I know thousands of modelers.

Please men help with your ideas to encourage Tamiya to realize this that could be one of the best in the big T history, having in account the big brothers, Cloud and super cloud still around.
Thanks for reading!!!!

I think a Clod body on the High Lift would be a good idea, despite the fact that I don't like Chevys. Although 3 things that should be done, get rid of the blower hole, the lines in the fenders for the faux tilt front end, and a grill sans the "4x4x4".

I know I know, but I wanted to be MORE sopecific here, perhaps if many people make an positive opinion of the idea this could be issued. I'm contacting people in order to give your positive opinion here.

It is a good looking truck and i've always liked it.

But, after Tamiya and Chevrolet had their little disagreement over the Chevy badged clod buster, i doubt they would go for the Chevy body on a new truck. Would they be cheeky enough to ask permission to use the Chevy badges now?

I didn't know this fact, and of course would be a problem, anyway looks like Tamiya fixed very well with the super clod. perhaps the best would be just not badges at all :thumbdown:
