3D printing, ha that'll never catch on.

Nice rims, the detail looks really good.

A quick trip to Wally's found this interesting Motormax duo. It was the last one they had and was $19. The '66 Chevy pickup is one we don't have in plastic right now, so it's interesting. The details and painting are fairly nice. It would come apart with a few screws to detail out the engine bay and interior. The bed on it is plastic.

 

I bought it for the camper unit. It's plastic so we can do a lot with it. It's different than the Open Road camper and I'm not sure if it's a replica of an actual camper or generic.  It doesn't have an interior, the windows are solid plastic. As you can see in the last photo, it comes apart with 6 screws so once we hollow out all the screw posts we can either use the interior from the Open Road camper or scratch build our own.  I've been on this camper kick lately so I'm likely to scratch build an interior for this.

Agreed 100% !  Had to open it as soon as it came in the mail.   Oh the old unopened kit smell! Thinking pro street maybe not quite sure yet...

I checked the chassis from the AMT pro street 66 Nova, The wheel base is dead on!  the only thing would be narrowing up the floor pan a small bit  & trim the rear corners for a snug fit.  .
