Reviews : Moebius 1971 Ford Ranger Pickup

this is another one of Moebius awesome kits if you have never bought a Moebius kit Moebius is really good and this is defiantly one of those good kits it in there line this kit has crisp modeling and very little to no flash this kit was built so well i want to buy and build more because they are so much fun to build i want to buy another one of these and build it as a work truck the first time i bought this kit i built it box stock the second time i bought it i made it into a service truck this kit is pretty spot on i have gone to shows and know people who have 71 rangers and every detail on this kit is that to the real truck which is awesome PROS: awesome kit, fun to build, very accurate, many possibility's CONS:on the more expensive side, tailgate requires some sanding, the front wind shield can break if not careful as it fits in very tight with the model overall the pros knock out the cons on this kit and i highly suggest it to any old truck lover ford fan or even dodge and gm fans out there this is an awesome kit and well worth the money!

I love this truck it is a great addition to my truck dioramas and garages I love building trucks and this one definitely has a lot of different ways you could build it and that’s the beauty of this truck you can chose to lift it lower it keep it stock height or what ever else you can imagine I definitely am going to put another one in our stash and you can not complain about the price on this truck Pros: easy on the wallet, Very detailed, nicely casted, lots of possibilities, great for dioramas CONS: minimal flash if you are thinking of picking up this kit then do it it is a lot of fun to build this kit and you will have a lot of fun with it and it will look good for dioramas or whatever you want to make it for

This is an fairly easy model to assemble. I decided on a two-tone color scheme and painted the truck bed in flat black. (my photos are posted). I airbrush all of my models--at least the exterior parts. I display my models in clear plastic cases (AMT-600) available from HobbyLinc. If you paint and detail the engine compartment, it is nice to be able to show it. So, this model does not come with hood hinges; so I went into my left-over parts boxes and came up with two items that worked quite well to suspend the hood in an open position. Did not find any particular areas that were troublesome. This model should be geared to the over 15 modeler.

I love this kit it is awesome so much fun to build I am a huge truck fanatic and this kit is a very good asset to my dioramas as I can use it for many thing Work truck, Show truck, Daily driver etc this truck will work for any diorama and garage very nice details on this truck I had an awesome time building it and definitely want to get more and build them in different ways PROS: No flash, Very accurate, Nice casting 10-10 stars for sure on this kit if you are thinking about getting this kit you should really consider it as it will look good in you diorama or garage and will also look like a part of what you are using it to do

This is only the second Moebius kit I've built and I don't plan on it being the last. Very clean parts,great fit and exceptional details. When you don't need to spend time trimming, sanding and fussing over fit it makes a build so much more enjoyable and inspires you to get a little creative. I found myself doing more cosmetic detail than I had originally planned so I could get the build up to it's potential. Really like this kit

i had been wanting this kit for awhile i heard great things about this kit. there were challenging things while building it but don't all kits have challenges. the detail in the kit was amazing the chrome pieces the instruction manual had pcitures of what it supposed to look like in the end and what the colors that the real truck had. i recommend this kit

Been building for a long time, and this kit is easily one of the best I've ever seen. Highly detailed, superior material and easy to follow instructions. This kit will be the one that all others are compared to. It's a shame there isn't 6 stars so I can hold this one above the others.

All that I had hoped for. I will be bashing this kit with 1968 F-250 from Moebius. My goal? To recreate my dads truck from my childhood. Being a Moebius kit, I know the detail will be more than one could hope for. Will always recommend.

this is an excellent model, but mine had a warped hood and warped bed. i was able to mostly correct the hood after the manufacture was unable to send a replacement. however this is still one of the best examples of this truck.

Will purchase from again,,, fast shipping... was kinda afraid when they said shipping was by USPS,,, But,, Was very surprised when package arrived and wasn't a scratch on box....

nice detail and very crisp molding.built as a 1 ton flat bed.i didn't care for the trim at bottom of cab being molded on.it should have been chrome like the other body trim.

Was impressed with the over all quality of this model. I look forward to building this model and will post some pictures when I have completed it. Very well packaged.

This is one of my favorite kits, everything fits properly(except a few minor things!) Looking forward to finishing! (pics to follow)

The Moebius line of Ford truck models might just be the finest engineered and designed line of models ever produced!!!

These are awesome kits. All of the Moebius Fords. I have all of them except the 69, it is a little to pricey for me.

Great fit, minor flash. A fun kit and one of my top 5 so far to build.i
