I realize that it's been a minute since I've posted a kit history article but I'm getting back in the swing of things. This one took a lot of research but I think I've covered everything and it's a project I'm proud of. If you'd like to check out the article, here's the link: https://www.sprue.xyz/articles/round2-chevelles Or if video is more your thing, you can watch the Model Car Genealogy episode where we covered it. ? https://youtu.be/d6EFCXUTuvE?si=o4zvT4t238F1N-8F

The chassis is shared with the later Beretta pro-street. There's a PDF of those instructions on Scalemates: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/revell-85-7168-chevy-beretta-pro-street--1025592

That trailer in the '99 is the same as the one reissued with the Bronco and dune buggy. Chances are high that Revell still has all the accessories to go along with it.

Isn't the Aurora a Shortstar? The V6 variant?

For Moebius it seems that the resto mod kits aren't too the extreme of modern drivetrain but a few custom touches and options that weren't available from the factory that have been added in subsequent restorations. See their '64 Nova resto mod and the '65 Belvedere I.

Get out of my head, Ken! ?

@Erik Solie???

I have a bunch of this stuff from KFS for a car hauler project: https://kitformservices.com/products/deck-plate-pe67-68?variant=42532830347502

If anyone does or will do one, it'll be @Wylde

That lower air deflector on the Cascadia sucks... When my employer got the first batch of trucks with those guys were knocking them off constantly due to the poor roads and yards we traveled on. They don't order them anymore. ?

I think Plaskit did/does offer this. He's on Facebook, Plaskit Resin Resin

Luka Cee Products, available through andyshhq.com

This set will be coming from LCP in the near future.

The worst are the ones that have completely peeled away but, rather than replacing them, the owner has painted the letters/numbers... ?‍♂️ I had to replace the plate on my work truck after it was on there for 18 months or so as it started peeling; a NS apportioned plate.

Tell me you didn't read my kit history article without telling me you didn't read my kit history article. ?

That Blazer is 1:24 and has a half-cab, so only good for '75-'80. That '76 pickup has about as much in common with the real truck's suspension as a wet paper bag...

Too bad the NB plate is for a trailer... ?

That particular reissue of the Tahoe was done by reboxing old inventory of the promos, not by running the molds. Hence the disclaimer on the box of random plastic colours.

Judging by the centre caps is it safe to assume that both RWD and 4x4 versions are forthcoming? ???

Scale Auto Model Works has a Rochester 2bbl, an Autolite 2100, and a Carter ABD in various engine packs. VCG Resins is his authorized printer.

I've been looking! No luck so far. Only the 250 and 300. Not even the 144/170 yet...

The '59 would be doable with a grille swap and hood insert while the '58 hood is different. And the '57 has a different lower valance panel between the grille and bumper...
