...........Just thought I would mention that an ebay seller has just listed the new reissues of the VW superbug gasser and 57 Ford some of us were waiting for.....chance's are more seller's will have their supply in the next day or two as well..........thought I'd just mention for those interested......the Ace......:D

What parts have been restored to the 57 Ford?  I don't see the Styleline nose or tail.

No, they didn't go the full-Styline treatment.  Looks like the small chrome tree are the recreated parts -  bumperettes, shifter, dog-dish hubcaps.  The rest were just opened up on the runners, not sure what's what I don't know the older issues that well.

I'll have to get a couple of the VW's. They have a treasure trove of goodies including some real nice tires.

Brett, could you please open up the Ford and show us some photos of the parts trees?

I'll try.  I wasn't going to buy one for myself and I don't want to open up a kit from stock but we are planning on starting up a series of in depth in-box reviews when the boss gets back from vacation next week.  I'll suggest this one as a good choice.

Now if Round2 would have just given us the Streetle Beatle Hood, the chrome looks like it is still on the Chrome tree.

It could have been a 2'n'1 kit.

Drat. I'll have to get one of each.

Why are there 2 sets of steel wheels?

Options! Remember, this can also be built as an exposed floorpan dune buggy. Which I think would look great with the steel wheel/ baby moon caps.
