That is a great 3-D piece. Nice work!
I did buy one of the Jimmy Flintstone models 1/24 Not sure if you have seen his models? I attached a photo for your reference.
I would be interested when they are produced.

bralwel do you have any updates on your 3d printed Chevy? I'd love to see the progress. I've been after different companies to finally produce a 64-66 Chevy van in any scale or medium for many years now. There 's a Jimmy Flintstone resin version on Ebay now: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NB333-1-25-scale-Jimmy-Flintstone-resin-1964-66-Chevy-Van/192863747379?hash=item2ce7933d33:g:3xsAAOSwJgBckXfC

Unemployment and job searching have taken their toll on my time. I'm afraid I haven't made much progress.

It's hard for everyone to get motivated in these tough times. Best of luck with the job search!

Just received one of Ken's models. Really nice!!! I had already purchased one of the Jimmy Flintstone's from ebay. I tried Ken's chassis under the Flintstone body and with a little work it will fit. I got the sportvan from Ken because I already had the Flintstone panel version. Will be able to use Ken's chassis and interior to build a panel replica of my 65. Will probably get one of Ken's panels later. Fast shipping and good quality!!!
