That is the nastiest,rusty grill and bumpers I have ever seen,love it,can't wait to see the complete build👍👍

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Haha! thanks James

@brsrc759 5 лет назад

That van is absolutely gorgeous! Can't get over that paint job and the patina

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Thanks man. It was the only way to mask how bad the body is.

@josephsloppy6750 5 лет назад

Awesome grill factory correct 1974 to around 1979. The 80s changed. Early 70s will be nice also. Plymouth had b vans also. Looks awesome. Lights look great. The rust look is great look like its been on bacific beach for years. Awesome detail. 👍👍

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

I am working on the early version too. I have another van in progress...

@9_19Ming 3 года назад

👍 love dodge van so much 👍👍♥️♥️. I had a lunchbox before.

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Thanks Sean, you are too kind.

@brsrc759 5 лет назад

I've got a little maroon 1/16 scale pressed metal long-wheelbase Dodge cargo van of that same body style. I think it's a Tonka or nylint. I was going to put losi MRC axles under it and just make a homemade chassis

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Heck yes! I know the one you are talking about. That would be great.

@kravenkrawlhobby5438 4 года назад

So cool bro, always want the unusual

@AMPROEngineering 4 года назад

Haha, thanks!

@longtalltexanrc3358 5 лет назад

So nice. So nice indeed. I’ve been wanting to build a street van for a while and the grill was the major holding off point. You sir get my gold star for the day. Ahhh...What the hell! You get the gold star for the week! Will this be available on shapeways? I still have not gotten my printer up and going yet.

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Haha yeah it is there and being validated on myminifactory now.

@TJDinMA 5 лет назад

Awesome! Can't wait for the chassis to come out!

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Few more days.

@RCShowdown 5 лет назад

That's amazing! Could you may tell me what Chrome color you are using? I've tried so many of these and not a single one of them turned out like Chrome. :(

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Sure, it is duplicolor automotive chrome. It works pretty well.

@1peanut 5 лет назад

That van is epic. orange and red Neon Sharpie markers work great for tial, turn signal and marker lights. That grill turned out great too

@thestuffz 5 лет назад

thanks for the tip!

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Good point! !

@hueylong8046 5 лет назад

So cool I love your videos. Once you release your chassis video I have a feeling I'm gonna be building a mystery machine 😉

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Dude...yes.

@KoHPowa 5 лет назад

The body looks awesome, well done!

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Thank you! It was hard to make it look that worn...

@camob650 5 лет назад

Love that grill. Awesome idea! Unless the early Lunchbox chassis were different to what's available now... The Pajero is similar, but definitely NOT the same chassis as the CW01. For starters that notch in the front grill of the Lunchbox is NOT there to clear the T shaped body mount molded into the front of the Pajero chassis for the body to clip to, it wouldn't come close to clearing that. I have a lowered Lunchbox and an original Pajero, the chassis for these Pajero's are extremely hard to find due to those mount's breaking off in frontal accidents or roll overs.

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Correct, there were mods to the early Pajero that make it incompatible with the CW01. I have both of them and it is crazy to see how much they did to that mold to make the CW01.

@camob650 5 лет назад

They're great fun trucks, both of them. I've bought your light kit for the Lunchy actually... And am seriously tempted to get the bumpers as well... My body has been moved forward a touch because it's been lowered on it's original chassis... I think they'd fit nicely. Time to save a bit of coin up.

@OddFellowCreations 7 месяцев назад

I’m planning on building one of these this year 😎. I love the compromised headlight, did you fog the back of it with super glue?

@AMPROEngineering 7 месяцев назад

Awesome! Keep me posted! This was an old print that shapeways used to have that was like a translucent clear. Worked awesome. Now i use a "bathroom window" that makes it have this look.

@thestuffz 5 лет назад

Well I was gonna do a transcon medivac van on the stock lunchbox chassis.. but now I kinda want to do it scale like yours!

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

A scale version of that would be amazing.

@gabrielpichardo1492 5 лет назад

I want to do a body like that like on a lowrider pumpkin chassis but I really don't know if the wheel wells will match up. I'm definitely buying that grille and rear bumper

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

No they dont sadly. It is also too wide. This is why I made the chassis it is parked on since I was tired of trying to make an existing one work.

@AMPROEngineering 3 года назад

Yes, there are links to our shapeways page in the video description. I also dont have a printer and get it all from them also.

@68burnout 3 года назад

@@AMPROEngineering Ok, cool. Thanks for your quick reply. Love the stuff you make! 👍

@Maverick_Van_Traveller 5 лет назад

I actually really like the Ford Cruising Van paint scheme on the Dodge Tradesman body.

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Thanks, that scheme is one of my favorites. I kinna just thought...a van is a van. This will work!

@Maverick_Van_Traveller 5 лет назад

Right on. Dodge had some cool schemes of their own but I agree, something about the colors Ford used really works. My dad had a Pinto Cruising Wagon with the same paint scheme in the early 80s.

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Oh thats the truth. I loved the yellow one dodge had but since the lunchbox was so iconically yellow, I didnt want to do that.

@ayden.t3459 3 года назад

Hey ampro I like the body on this chassis it would be cool to do the same for the midnight pumpkin body on a chassis similar to this

@AMPROEngineering 3 года назад

I have a plan for that too. The pumpkin is actually a lot larger so I have a different path for that one.

@gnarlytek1331 4 года назад

Nice job do u think the Blackfoot grill fit the lunchbox

@AMPROEngineering 4 года назад

No they are in no way compatible.

@az_max1044 Год назад

I bought the headlights from shape ways, but they came in a yellow material, not clear. Did they print in the wrong material?

@AMPROEngineering Год назад

Well...yes and no. They printed in a material they assigned to the part. What happened was they changed printers and replaced the material that used to be assigned (trans clear) with this Tan color. They were supposed to change it to the new clear they have. They did this quickly. Please email me at amproengineering@gmail.com and get me the order number. Let me sort this out.

@BlackMetalRC85 5 лет назад

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

@MrLiamPickering 5 лет назад

Can you make your other parts available on the mini factory like the hg p407 wheel spares

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Yes i will!

@blindlydriven3591 3 года назад

Anyway you would sale an assembled unpainted body like this. I don't have printer and definitely not skilled in the cutting and trimming I'm legally blind so not really suited for it lol. Trying to recreat a van my dad in the 70s as a gift to him.

@AMPROEngineering 3 года назад

Oh I am so sorry but i just do not have the time to do that. I am sure someone would gladly get this up for you in one of the facebook scale builders groups.

@Blitz0065 5 лет назад

Could this bumper be modified to work on the CW01? I feel like I "need" this detailed version over the 3-in-1 piece that comes standard on the Lunchbox

@longtalltexanrc3358 5 лет назад

Blitz0065 I’m pretty sure you will need to hack away on your chassis if you want to make the grill fit on your stock LB chassis. The best way to tell would be to remove the grill from your body and place the body back on the chassis. Anything that sticks our will need to come off.

@Blitz0065 5 лет назад

@@longtalltexanrc3358 I'm down for a little hacking lol It would depend on how much I suppose

@longtalltexanrc3358 5 лет назад

Yeah. It’s been too long since I’ve had a LB to be able to tell you. This grill does make me want to build a 70s themed street van though. Now to find a chassis

@AMPROEngineering 5 лет назад

Yeah it would fit but you would have to chop the front of the CW01 chassis off a bit. I suspect that even notching it would work.
