Yes It's Our newest addition here at Detail Downunder! So new its still not even packaged or added to our site. I will PM you with some details soon.

Here's a Quick update
Test fitment of the motor and exhaust was done by the boys in the workshop late last night to make sure there is no issue during final assembly since the Ardun Conversion has been added onto the 32 kit Flathead (Ardun parts from the Newly reissued '50 F1 pickup)the original exhaust set up can not be used.

Revell 32 Sedan Ardun1

Rear wheels where also checked for clearance since lowering the ride height (A black wash has been added to the rims to give them a more realistic appearance)also got ahead of myself and added the gas cap (Turned Aluminium and polished)

Yet more progress, I'm sort of getting sick of looking at this thing so hopefully it will be done by the end of the weekend!

Interior is 95% finished

This is the light bar from the Amt 32 and looks like it will fit.
grill is finished and mounted also, I think the number plate suits it!

Lookin good dude.

I see the rear fender fit issue is the same as with the coupe and roadster variants of this kit. The only thing I dislike about them all.
