76 Chevy Van (A-Team kit) 7/3/19 update
With the P2P on hold I decided to focus on this build, since the A-Team kit offers an option to build it is a Chevy I decided to go that route (76 to be exact – based on the dashboard in the kit). I had a “blueprint” in my head, when "Vans" were chosen as the subject. So with only recently getting started, here are some of my changes and progress…
Bottom of body (all casting marks, extra holes filled etc. ) & light texture painted (flat black).
Frame stock cross-members removed/new-members installed, leaf springs removed/new rear – air adj sys will be built. Frame smoothed out, filled, primed, sanded numerous times and pained gloss black.
While waiting for things to dry, I’ve been working on the body too. The upper and lower trim have been removed (still needs some perfection). Installed new rain gutters/smoothed to roof. Work to continue.
The engine was fitted during frame assembly and if this were I real van I think it would make a real world good choice. Hint: http://www.superchevy.com/how-to/engines-drivetrain/sucp-0703-stealth-tpi-induction/
