    Those look great, Dan.
  2. Jim B
    Looking pretty good.
  3. Jim B
    That's pretty cool.

    Phenomenal looking kit. Way out of my price range, but is sure is beautiful.

    I've been considering getting one of these for a while. I was thinking of using either a Ford C-series or a N-series.

    Looks like Scenes Unlimited does offer a 5 lug Ford 15" steel wheel: https://scenesunltd.com/products/1940-50s-ford-steel-wheels-s09 No idea if they are correct for a 1977 E150, though; but they do look nice. No hub cap, though. Chevy Van/Pickup wheels come with hubcaps: https://scenesunltd.com/products/70-80s-chevy-van-pickup-s22

    Nice looking Chevy. That's some pig.
  8. Jim B
    Pretty cool conversion.
  9. Jim B
    I know, right?

    The Coke machine will probably be too tall to fit in the van, but time will tell. Does anyone know if Scenes Unlimited offers the correct wheels? What about Fireball?
  11. Jim B
    Seriously! I had no idea my question would cause so much discussion.

    I have the kit, and it seems pretty good. It's very similar to this kit: Might even have the step bumper, too; but it's been a while since I looked in the box. Just like the one in the review, everything is molded shut (doors, rear doors, hood), and there are no rear windows.

    Will probably pick up the Ford van & maybe the Saturn V. Hard pass on the rest.

    I guess the next question is: where can I get an appropriate set of steelies & Ford hub caps?
  15. Jim B
    Thanks for all the replies, guys. I didn't think redlines would end up on a work truck from the factory. Ron, I agree with you: black walls, steelies, and maybe hubcaps. Like the fact that the Coke bottles are pre-finished. I remember Coke machines that gave glass bottles. Does that mean I'm old? ?

    I just watched the Round2 November 2019 Release video, and Chad talked about this kit. One thing I didn't originally notice on the box art is that the van has redlines. Would a work van have redline tires? I thought those were more of a performance tire.

    So the decal sheet has A/GAS & D/G. Obviously A/GAS can be converted to A/G. So, knowing that, what's correct? The decals say "398 H.P."

    Not knowing much about gassers, what should the designation be?
  19. Jim B
    Looks like the 57 Ford Sedan was a pretty popular gasser.
  20. Jim B
    Very nice!
  21. Jim B
    That looks really slick in the black.
  22. Jim B
    Thanks, Mark. I'll do that.

    The CHP 1978 Dodge Monaco is intriguing. I might just have to pick one of these up. Now, it is pretty obvious from the conversations that these Chevrolet Vegas cannot be built stock, but are there any stock Vegas out there? I've seen a stock Pinto, so I don't see why there couldn't be.
  24. Jim B
    Yes, I should say you did. They look quite nice. I like the Mustang. What is the bronze colored car?
  25. Jim B
    Very nice. It looks the part of a half million dollar car. What kit is that?
