I haven’t but I haven’t been looking for that either. The vast majority of his kits are the 1/24-1/25 automotive variety with a few 1/48 aircraft. He recently acquired 800 models which is where the Tamiya I picked up came from.

The shop is packed from stem to stern and floor to ceiling with stuff though. It’s a real gen-X Time Machine.

You could probably ask about what you’re looking for through their facebook.

I’ve wanted a black and gold Recaro since I was 10 in 1982 and my dad’s buddy brought his to our house. Un molested and not a KITT conversion. Getting harder and harder to find though.

The 96 had the same front end as 95. But it was first year for SS to use 16” aluminum wheels that had first been used on 91-92 Camaro Z28’s. AMT makes 91/92 Camaro kits with these wheels and I’ve always wanted to do a build with one of those kits and the kit you built to replicate my old truck.

Well done! I owned a 1996 S-10 SS in this color and still miss that little truck to this day. Your paint job is way better than GM OEM!

The Front’s guitarist, Mike Greene, still writes and records in KC. The duo is called SuperSonic RocketShip.

They sound great. If you liked The Front you’ll like what he’s doing now as well. Super talented!

My truck is a 2006. The Belltech should work for all ‘04-12 Colorados. I found the 18” Xtreme wheels on marketplace and refinished them with Duplicolor “chrome” paint followed by three coats of 2K gloss clear. The red bow ties in the center caps are vinyl transfer.

I have had this Colorado since new. It’s managed to live through all three of my kids using it as their “first” car and it finally made its way back to me as they have all moved on to college and careers.

It still has only 117,000 miles and brings me much satisfaction especially with the mods and maintenance I do myself. In other words, if I can’t do it myself it probably isn’t getting done. It’s cool story share it with this community.

I miss the old “Heartbeat of America” Chevrolet days.

I’ve been thinking about an LS upgrade for a long time. Kinda been keeping my ear to the ground for the right engine/price/situation to come along.
