I just saw this on the Round2 site. I know that its announcement isn't unexpected; however, the mention of the pad printed tyres with the blue pinstripe (Blue Streak) with the accompanying Good Year white letters is awesome in its own right! Begs the question: were the Dean Jeffries emblems restored as well? They were present only on the c.1967 original, then removed from subsequent reissues (I have a feeling that Mr. Bondo had something to do with that rubbish).

One (of many) reasons I got stalled on this VW Bus project, didn't like the idea of trying to get a decent paint job done around the giant molded on emblem. I had tried the Alumilte casting putty, but got unsatisfactory results, plus JB Weld doesn't work that well for parts. Since I needed to get fresh casting supplies, I added this to the task. First thing was making a dam around it, used yogurt cup foil because it's thicker than Reynolds, bends nicely, taped down with masking tape. I also filled the corners to prevent spill-out. Oh man, so much happier with this! P.S.: Started this project 2003, could participate in the Bring Out Your Dead challenge when I feel *really* ambitious.
