The Super Happy Funtime Virtual Diecast Vehicle Museum Presents
A Red Carpet Review:
Featuring Greenlight 1976 Chevrolet G20
from the County Roads Series 8 edition.
Most of you know by now that Greenlight Collectibles makes a good model and this van is no exception. This one caught my eye at Toys R Us with its unique color and "normal looking" delivery van graphics. Also, it reminds me of my wife who is a wonderful cook and makes a mean cupcake. :)
The details are great with the exception of the position of the steering wheel. It comes straight up out of the floor board instead of an angle out of the dashboard. This bothers me a bit, but unless you stick your face up to one of the windows you don't notice. Strangely, the van shares a casting number with their Dodge Van. I'm not sure why since the base and body are completely different. They just use a letter to differentiate the two. The Chevy is 060A the Dodge is 060B.
When I was photographing this review I noticed on the back doors a website for what I thought was a made up company. It turns out this is a real bakery in Greenlight's home town of Indianapolis. What's the connection? Who knows? But I bet there was some free cupcakes involved.
So now you enjoy the pictures and I will go to the kitchen and dig around for a dessert.
Seeya!
