Jordan White Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Oh boy, unless they decided to suddenly make the Escalade ESV, then that is quite the box art blunder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Jairus Watson can comment on it...looks like his signature just ahead of the RR tire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike 51 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) I don't know my SUVs...short wheelbase body that was already done vs. the long wheelbase one that hasn't been? Edited September 17, 2018 by mike 51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't bother, its simply a reissue with now incorrect box art, its not going to be a ESV kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niteowl7710 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) Well remember all of this box art was drawn up pre-bankruptcy, and for the financial and practical reasons (further delaying an already delayed unasked for reissue) they weren't going to have it re-done.

You're right. I don't know why I allowed myself to be so optimistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyBradKeselowski Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I'll pass on this one, I don't like the looks of the Escalade anyway.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike999 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Joke's on me...I found the older Revell Escalade cheap at a swap meet, and thought I would convert it to an Escalade hearse, as shown below. I plunged right in, creating the vinyl roof and its "halo" chrome bar, and generally wasting a lot of time... ...because something eventually occurred to me that people smarter than me (which is just about everybody) would have figured out before they started work: this standard wheelbase Escalade won't ever work as a hearse. Well, maybe a hearse for a Mafia funeral, where the Dearly Departed was blown up by a car bomb and would fit in a very short coffin. But now I'm thinking I could use TWO Escalade kits, stretch the wheelbase to the ESV length, and...no. Just no. Not even I am that insane...

The EXT kit is already the right length, you'd just have to convert the rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Hamilton Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Revell made a kit of the Escalade EXT. Maybe a ESV can be made using the rear roof section from the Escalade kit, some plastic rod and some clear styrene for the side Windows.
