I was at my LHS yesterday buying pool supplies. Yeah,they also do pools to get them through the summers. He has a big rack that has nothing but old kits on it. I always go check it out to see what he has. The prices are usually way more than what I'm willing to pay,but I always look around. Scanning over the kits,one immediately caught my eyes. It was the Ford 4X4 "Stunt Van" still sealed!! While it wasn't the exact 4X4 Ford van I built when I was kid, the only difference is the decals and it's molded in red instead of white. Close enough! My immediate thought was "he probably has it priced for $60 or more" But no, it had a $39.95 price tag on it! I immediately snatched it up and paid for it! I've been after one of these for years now,but they always went out of my price range on ebay. I can't wait to get started building it! I may do a WIP on this one when I do get started on it. Now to figure out a paint scheme....

This is one of my "grail" kits too! And I picked one up within the last year on Ebay. Don't recall what I paid, but it was probably more than $40. I doubt it was $60 or more though because I'm too cheap! Can't wait to see your build. (I've got a bunch of kits I want to build before I get to my 4x4 van.)
