This is my BADVAN Chevy made from a old Revell 1/32 ambulance and Groovy Grater parts

The gold rush van is an 80s body, so you'd have to cut in a different place, but you'd have to cut about 18mm. The roof is cut in the middle to make the crown less weird. There was an article last year in the "other model magazine" on how to cut these down

Thank you, the auction was for a built kit that looked like someone globbed on thick craft glue to cover the broken parts and sprayed some flake paint to cover it up. I stripped it, shortened it, and played off of the problems

I would love if someone made the Ghia coupe

This one is definitely not gonna be seen at Hobby Lobby ?

A little off topic, but I saw a newer 2 door Wrangler the other week and I totally forgot they also came that way. It looked weird to me ?

It's too bad, his stuff is really nice and I follow him on FB, but this operation has a lot of moving parts and long lead time, so it was hard for me to pull the trigger personally. I do know, in this day and age, follow up on emails and messages os very important. Shops can live or die by it. Hopefully they can streamline things and work everything out

Yeah looks like the A100 van emblems. Maybe MPC got it off a Dodge preproduction van or something

Ironic that they never had that Dodge lettering on the hood in that font either... I think? Oh, here's another idea. Engraved lines inside the body, interior, chassis to cut to make a shorty "for advanced modelers"

The 2 with the cut out roofs are '78s. I love these 70s dodges and most times I'll just buy bad rebuilders and piece them together with '82 cuttings Here's an idea, 70s or 90s dodge cargo vans with flashed over window openings, and window units that have the trim molded on so it's a little more elegant than the amt 70s vans. Hell, let's do this with the chevy ones too. Tradesman, Sportsman, and Plymouth Voyager decals too??? Hello @SteveG put me down for a case ??????

The bottom one is my "rip off van" that I posted in the "under glass" board. Not sure what what issue, but it's one with the later grille and workshop interior. The 3rd from the bottom is the "truckin usa" one and has the portholes cut out already

Love this thing

I'm definitely gonna buy on my next visit to Pegasus

This is my "rip off street van" made from a MPC Dodge van bought from a blurry ebay listing It was cheap enough that even with no body, it was probably worth it

A rare kit I wish they'd bring back

I feel like this would be in Canuck3d wheelhouse and hopefully he will come up with something @Wylde

I hogged out the slots on the hinges and that seemed to help. The windshield on mines seems to have to go on top of the cowl for better fit. I'm sure if there was more glass adjustment earlier on, I would've been good. See? It's not too bad at the beginning, but note no glass and no dash. Maybe I had to cut the dash back more. I did glue the interior to the chassis first, seems like the only thing with positive mounts, then I worked forward and rearwards from there

some Darts I built last year

Monogram 66 vette, box stock, and lowered

Yup, you're right, but the Turtle Wax version wasn't doing it for me, maybe because there wasn't one back in the day? The Cragars look so good too

Oh man, now I wish I bought that kit.. thats the nice thing about those 70s era MPC kits, they kept using the same few wheels on everything

Yes! And don't forget the convertibles too! You're almost making me wanna build more 64 Galaxies now! FYI I used the modified stocker version interior and chassis plate for my NASCAR one, but that kit comes with a bunch of the old custom version parts too and just about everything can swap over

So rad, I wonder if Atlantis has these

Looks fantastic, what paint did you use for body color?

I'm kinda hoping these would come back, but Maybe they didn't because the Cragars were lost? Throw some extra mural decals kinda like the Dirty Donny van.. Would be an easy one to make, to help make money for the backdating... ?
