DIV (I suppose it means "division")  GMFG 197 7 that is whats imprinted on the frame! maybe someone here with alittle more knowledge can help me figure it out!

Re: 1978 chev stepside P/U
Update:
got one piece done for the tailgate....trying to make it more "Realistic" ...it may be a hair to big...but im sure some sanding should take care of it and now gotta do the other side. but i may just leave it and glue it back on and just restore it rather than add detail to an original kit?....  interior...still pondering about the steering wheel? Also...looking for a replacement timing cover for the kit....its the same engine as the amt 72 nova kit!   Comments and Criticism welcomed!
