Well here we go . . . I find it interesting when something like this is posted everyone jumps on the ol band wagon with their lists, wants, and stuff that only they would have any interest in. Got an idea you think will fly? Get a hold of the aftermarket guys.I 've sent several samples to Alan Rabb at Ma's Resin, He decides if it's worth his time and effort and what do you know, there it is in his catalog. http://public.fotki.com/cnaind/

Ken, I must agree with ya sir . Of all the useless ways to mis -use a tool that abortion , uh Van is simply a total waste of energy .

No, but there is a version of the Cabriolet that has plenty of hot rod parts in it. The last issue of that kit, in the AMT "Connesuer Classics" series had them. It also has a different fender unit from the stock only issue that did not have molded in spare tire wells.

The Hot Rod pieces, & the other fender set were from the "Gangbusters" '33 Panel, & the release of the Race only version of the cabriolet it had headers that went through the fenders, about where spares were supposed to go. I still have two of those releases, two of the Gangbusters kit, & four or five of the Cabriolets, one is the second edition, that was the first issue of it without the Panel, & was a Budd Anderson edition with tips on how to make a street rod version.

It's pretty much all '32 Chevy under the psuedo-hearse bodywork- if nothing else, there's plenty of usable parts for restoring a built up Cabro or panel. All of the original suspension parts are in the Vampire Van kit, and those parts are ALWAYS broken on the rare old built-ups you see.
