Fujimi Chevy Astro LS AWD

This is just some build pics. I have a couple of neat "add ons" when i get pics of the interior. Color is dark green (toyota) by plasticote, and silver is dupli color. This thing has a HUGE turing radius too. And if anyone else has this kit, its really easy to lower. Just flip the front spindles around (has a taller peg at the top then at bottom) And the rear end has block you remove (Fujimi released multiple versions of this kit, a slammed version one of them; so it gives all the slammer parts) To achieve the stock look, fujimi wedged a piece of plastic between the axle housing and leaf spring, just remove that and vo-wal-al. If you want to give it the ass-drag look, put the axle housing on the inside of the leaf springs, and not on the outside as it would sugguest.

geez... all your cars are cars you could find on the road almost everyday... unique, i like that... great models so far, this will just be one more addition to that collection

yeah, i really dont like building exotics or racing cars. I still have yet to build my 3 year old porsche GT2, and i still have yet to build a ferrari.

Great work!! Good to see one of these finally being built.

I think fujimi has really redeemed their self on this kit. This kit is really top notch. There are no flash or mold lines whats so ever.

Soda anyone?!

nice detail there... i'll have some soda btw... :)

Looks great so far! I've been wanting one of these kits for a while now. It's cool to see someone else building it up so I have an idea of what it'll be like when I finally get one!

Sportin dual chromies (you can see the huge turning radius)

BTW, thanks SchuberT for the great sig pics

I didn't even know that Fujimi made this kit. Looks really good. Nice work. Keep us posted on how the build goes.

Mike. Nice van. But, no lift kit with 44's?! No huge s/c LT/S1? Man, what's wrong. nice soda can!

A lift on a van? I swear you've truely gone redneck. lol

mike would do it. all of his other trucks are lifted, why not. better than a 4wd lifted 02 anniversary 35th SS camaro aint it?

I've actually seen that. not a 35th anniversery, but I've seen 3-4 lifted Camaros with 44s.

Yeah, I've seen quite a few lifted Camaros and other cars and vans too.
I guess lifting a van isn't that new, since Fed-Ex has a lift on all of their vans here. I dont' think a lift on this van would look to good though.

hahaha emaxx, that sig pic is great

Thanks man. I didn't make it though. I found it on google.com. I just don't have the time to make my own sigs now.
