More Modelhaus Brainstorms

[Terry Jessee]

This is a Modelhaus '81 Chevy Suburban that I've been converting to a 4X4. I was digging through some boxes looking for wheels, and tripped over this. It's out in front again. This is such a cool project. I have tons of little detail things for this--running boards, roof rack, all kinds of cool add-ons.

Have to quit looking in boxes and get back to business.

Wow I remember that one, kinda, I am looking forward to seeing what you do with this

And what's the story with the Forty Sedan? Looks awfully good from this view!

[Terry Jessee]

Looks about like this. I've got the interior painted and "carpeted," and am working on the engine compartment now. This is inspired by Bob McCoy's '40 sedan that was in all the magazines in the late '50s. It's not an exact replica, though.

Didn't even know there was resin of this Suburban body style.

My eye keeps getting drawn to that bright green '59/60 (?) Chevy wagon.

[Joe Handley]

I thought that '40 looked kinda familiar, has that Suburban seen print at one time, it also looks kinda familiar........

why box diving can be fun sometimes,plus the ocational"oh hey I forgot about this"

'60. You can tell by the flat wings.

That's hot. Very nice!

The wagon is a '60. Quite rare these days, actually.

Sad that I missed the Suburban when it was in production; I'd like to see that one back again.

Looking good.

Check out the Modelhaus, It is available again, $92.00 for the whole kit! I plan on getting one and doing a 4x4 conversion like Terry.

Provided the Suburban does become available again, what is needed to complete it and how much ? Ed Shaver
