Jimmy Flintstone strikes again.

[newt]

For those of you who know me well, the weirder, the better.
While we were in Waukesha (NNL), we saw a newer? release from the Flintstone shop, and I just had to have one! It came the other day, and I spent about an hour cleaning it up, and here it is!
---------------1948ish International Metro Van!----------------------
If you like goofy crap, you'll dig this. (I know I do)

Sorry for the blur, I am still learning the camera




Well, what do you think? I know Fish and I have had a conversation about me tapering off of resin, but there is soooo much non-mainstream, cool stuff out there.
The (kit) includes the floor, bumpers, separate grill and doors, and the '55 or '57 Chevrolet truck kit(AMT) is to be used as the running gear donor.

looks like the start of a pro touring delivery van to me

Here's an idea...

Was at the Corn Roast in '09, selling ice cream and root beer...

THAT is a great picture! Good inspiration. I haven't decided what, exactly that I am going to do with it, old school with wide whites?, modern, like your photo?, dilapidated and forgotten?, stoner-van?, old and stockish service and/or delivery?, so many options It'll come to me. Any other thoughts?

[newt]

P.S. I have heard rumors that JF is going to, or did do a Divco also!
Anyone know about that? Or any other producers?

[hot rod trucker]

There is a Divco out there somewhere...can't remember who did it though...

[fish]

I got mine a couple of days ago (Thanks Newt !)...Anybody up for a IH Metro build-off/community build ?

Next years NNL theme is Alcohol/Firearms & Tobacco

Jimmy did the Divco and I think still has the mold to make more. I know he said he doesn't get to many orders for it anymore but about two months ago a guy from out of the states ordered one from him. You email him and see if he still has some left...... [e-mail]
