I'll have to dig through some things and see what you might want. Thanks

The Mack, Duster, Pontiac, MALCO Gasser, Barracuda, and Chevy finned longroof will be going home with me.

I almost bought this 1/1 '77 Rally Wagon in the Portland area a few years ago. GMC offered both chromed and painted bits on vans in this era, so a builder can technically make a "whiteout" van

'71-'72, '73-75 and '76-77 G-van dashes are all different as well. Doghouse covers vary in size between inline six or V8 or Oldsmobile 350 Diesel vans iirc.

I owned one too ('74 Chevy G10 Contempo conversion) and almost owned a '77 GMC Rally Wagon 1-ton work van and a couple different Dodge vans at different times. Am semi serious about replacing my Subaru with a '95 E250 Glaval conversion van too. This is a nice example that custom builders/painters will eat up like, well, "free candy". The AMT kit is a '71-'72 and this looks like a '73-'75 GMC VanDura which there are no good replicas of.

The AMT '77 Ford Econoline and 1/20 MPC '74 Ford Econoline, and I think the 1/16 Revell vans, do have opening front hoods, the Lindberg Lil Red Wagon in stock form is a van-based pickup but has a removable doghouse too. But as a former owner of a '74 G10 in real life, what the heck is there to see under the front lid other than battery, master cylinder, radiator, and a few reservoirs?

thanks all! Andy, I had no trouble at all with it.

I am in for a bunch of these. I don't care for the AMT G30 much and the Monogram G10 shorty is hard to find/expensive.

thanks Stuart. it's a nice kit, I am thinking about using the frame rails (shared with the MPC modified racers and Double Flip F100) front/rear suspension that uses the same/similar rails, as well as a lot of other parts, from another one on a 3D printed Kellison J4 at some point. A few old-school hot rodder friends born in the 1930s/40s on back to the early 1920s had told me that tri-5 Chevy and corresponding year Pontiac frames were popular to build specials or racers off of, hence MPCs widespread use of it I am sure

thank you Doug!

thank you!

The '60 Nomad looks great, the Python and T seem nice too.

Mostly out of box build with a few things added/changed on the MPC 'Spirit of '57' kit. This was smooth and enjoyable build, I am excited to try the '53 F100 based on many of the same bits.

If anyone wants to part with an AMT "Beetle Bus" shorty VW kombi dragster, I'd love to have a chance at it and build it my way.
