I do intend on doing the Laguna next. Bench seats or buckets and console? Opinions?

Am I dreaming is somebody doing a resin Laguna? Or atleast something to work with??

It's real. I'm going to modify one of the resin Chevelles into a Laguna. The Laguna will get the bucket seat/console/round gauges interior. The Chevelle will have bench seat/linear speedometer interior.

most of the molds are done. just the body left which is going in tomorrow. kevin has a few things still to de before he takes this lil piggie to market, but its comming...


Couple questions:
1) What will you guys be using for the chassis?
2) Since this is a GM "colonnade car", is there any chance of doing a '77 442?

Ok, I am new to this site, I have been scouring the net countless hours for years looking for something that even fame close to what you are doing here. With nothing worth a dam really out there for this generation chevelle other than race cars, I even attempted to modify a "Saturday night special" short track malibu back to a street car, wound up with a failed attempt of recreating factory wheel wells.... I am crazy impressed with your talent and the way this body is turning out, and much like the others who have commented, would like to purchase a few for myself... Any word on a tentative release date from the resin company? How about most recent progress pics? Looks great, keep up the good work....
