Yes - Halibrands. Big inch, shallow version available in the Revell Wheels of Fire snap '57 Chevy hardtop. Those fit Pegasus sleeves with some clean up. Regular offset/deeper rear 16" combo is available in the Revell Rat Roaster '32.

I don't, but it is. The old Revell kit with opening doors and trunk and a kool new decal sheet added in.

Hemeh.

Very nice! A perfect replica.

57 Ford Del Rio Ranch Wagon 2n1 Nice!

The new one? It looks closer to Petty Blue than the blue in your photos. This reissue is actually a 2n1. All the parts are there to build either the Bandito or what they call "Roadster" which is the 5 slot mag-wheeled, yellow & black iteration from years past.

Awesome build!

Wheels, tires, custom bucket seats. Blue Bandito has a '50s vibe, later issues are '70s-style. I opened my BB Monday night. Tonneau, bucket seats & rear axle (?) are molded in white. Rest is in medium blue. Both tire styles are included (new Blue Beetle repops of skinnies & pie crust slicks with whitewall inserts and '70s radials). Also two front axles, both kinds of wheels, etc. Cool kit!

Hello again, Jeff. Inspiring artwork is always welcome! I'll have to check out those doodle listings. I put my t-shirt on Saturday and realized it was your art - Rodder's Journal '56 T-bird gasser.

:lol:

Looks great! Nice work fabbing all your own stuff. You've got skills. Nice job.

In 2014, Q2 was announced on 1/13, Q3 on 4/18 and Q4 on 7/24. What's Q1 2015 hold???

Kool! Neat looking build - it has the right attitude and look. Congrats on your award! Only thing I would change is the '80s-style "Oldsmobile" decal on the hood. Where did you get the "Rocket" decals?

YESSS! A stunner. Well done, sir.

Beautiful build, as always! Great light weathering and ol' Henry had it right - they all look nice in black.

Wicked hot rod! Great job on the chop.

Very nice! Great color and stance. I think four doors look better on this sedan body than two.

Wicked! Great job on the frame zees.

Neat build! I enjoyed following your build thread. Learned a thing or two!

Rod & Custom feature car several years back. I liked it then, and I like it still. I get it.

GMS has one on eBay. From what I can see in the photo, the box side looks to have a picture of the truck with surfboard in the bed and scuba accessories laid out on the ground next to it. Also appears to have an optional tonneau cover for the bed. Stoke!

Great stuff! Welcome to MCM, Jeff. I've always enjoyed your artwork in the magazines.

Same here. I have new, unused, in-package MV lenses from ten years ago in a closed toolbox under my workbench. They'e all yellowed. Must be a function of the product used.

Very kool! Makes me want to do one similar with my resin '35 truck grile.
