Engine 51 Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 I am currently building the AMT Chevy rescue van. The scripting on the on the van body is pretty much nonexistent, and I would like to add the scripting/labels via decals or photo etch. I have searched for the appropriate Chevy badging but have come up empty. I seem to remember seeing some kind of decals for Chevy trucks/vans sometime ago but I have no clue where as of now. Wouldn’t have to be for a van specifically, trucks would be ok too, just something to show off the branding. Anyone have any ideas, clues? Thanks in advance!

RichCostello Posted May 29, 2022 Posted May 29, 2022 This model isn't worth wasting any more money on photo etch, or decals. It's garbage! 1 1

vincen47 Posted May 31, 2022 Posted May 31, 2022 I hadn’t checked out detail junkies in a long time. Thanks for the reminder. They have a lot of new items since I last visited their site.

I personally could use "Chevyvan 10, 20 and 30. VanDura and Beauville.

Also searched for stock pick up scripts and have come up empty. Kind of hard to imagine that there are no stock Chevy emblems out there in decal or photoetch form….if there are then I’ve missed’em.

Bonus points for these... The Revell California Cruiser Van used to have nice Chevyvan emblems on it's front fenders, until they swiped off the "Chevy" and just left "Van". Either they lost the license or they took it off when they did the Hardy Boys Van - which was a GMC.
seniorgeek Posted June 1, 2022 Posted June 1, 2022 Ok, give me a few days and I will post a sample for your review. 1
