Snake45 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 4 hours ago, Bucky said: I've seen the Rally wheels on every kind of Chevrolet. One of our neighbors had a new Caprice wagon with rally wheels on it. I think they are one of the best factory wheels, along with the Magnum 500. And in every 1967 Chevy brochure, the steel portions of the Rallys are shown painted black, not silver. I've only ever seen one set of real ones painted black, but it's possible. The '67 Rally center caps on black wheels looks a lot like hubcaps on black steel wheels, if you don't realize what you're looking at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ding ding ding. 15 inch rallye wheels are the only stock choice if you want your model to have disc brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie8575 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 My understanding is the bench seat is more like a Caprice, with an armrest. Pretty easy fix with some Evergreen and a little cutting. The wheels, as pointed out, aren't a huge problem. Idea...due a COPO-style interior and install buckets/console? Wouldn't shock me if one or two got pushed through like that. The only other thing would be to swap the 4-speed for a TH-400. Kris Morgan has that covered. Looking forward to this one.

Thanks Casey. I was already thinking along those lines when I get one. I could just grind off the fronts and redo the chrome also and that's they way I'm inclined to go rather than cannibalize the SS kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drake69 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Just getting a feel for what others might do with this, but does anyone have plans to open the trunk on this kit? The designers have already mentioned that the panel lines are already traced inside the trunk lid, and a sigil decal is included on the sheet for those who want to do this alteration. If those of you decide to do this, are there any good sources of 1:25 scale weaponry that can be fabbed for the "arsenal"? Knives, crosses, crossbows, and other hand weapons should be fairly easy to fab up, but shotguns, pistols, and rifles could probably be sourced from police kits and such. And as for "barbed-wire covered" baseball bats... Heh heh. Ohh, the "hero car" has a false bottom in the trunk to hide the weaponry. Don't forget that when making the trunk area.

Snake45 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I expect someone will have aftermarket resin and/or PE accessories available soon. Personally, I'm not gonna worry about that stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose1957 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I'm in. I'm planning on doing the trunk, it's an integral part of the show. I've been saving up all the weapons from some of the gangster series of kits when I come across them at shows. Gotta have the Winchester's arsenal. Now, where am I gonna find a vial of holy oil.

Rob Hall Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Checked a few of the usual online vendors... Model Roundup shows it as a June release,Tower Hobbies says early October, Spotlight, Hobbylinc and MegaHobby don't have it listed on their sites... And the distributor Stevens International just says 'TBA'...   So I figure it will show up when it shows up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will show up in a few days, there's quit a bit of backlog at Round2 that is scheduled for release in June. The Impala and the Haul Away Trailer are at the point of that log.

stavanzer Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 I'd own an Aztek. I like the looks. I don't like the dreadful GM Build quality. I'd cheerfully buy and build a Model of one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
