I looked on Cybermodeler's release schedule link, but it doesn't show that kit coming back anytime soon, though they are releasing a Datsun truck which looks like a repop. From this site's forum, it looks like the body can be found in their monster truck kits, though you'd have to fix a hole in the hood and come up with another chassis. I'm not sure, but if it was modified that much to be a monster truck, there may not be any molds to reissue it like the original.

any world on re-release?
Posted by Ford81Man on Thursday, March 13, 2014 5:28 AM
I know that a while back (not sure of the years) that revell produced a ford flareside 80's model under tje name "Night Rider" and monogram produced a similar model called "ford f150 ranger". I personally own a 1981 f150 4x4 and would like to make a mini model of my truck. I know I can still find originals but those are easily over $100 and I don't want to "hurt the feelings of those vintage mint collectors who like it in factory shrink wrap" and all the used kits are halfway assembled. Besides that has anyone heard of the possibility or plans for a re-release of the models of if any other manufacturer makes an 80's f150 flareside (stepside)?
