Quality Craft 1962 Chevorlet Delievery Van

Some will remember this kit, which if a recall correctly was offered in N, HO and O Scale.

A nice die cast kit, which was easy to assemble.

Have not seen it on the market for some years now.

Wonder if they may offer again in future?

I'm familiar with Quality Crafts wood craftsman freight car kits from the 60s and 70s, but I don't think I've ever seen a 62 Chevy Delivery Van. As far as I know QC has been out of business for decades. I believe some of the kits were later offered buy Ye Old Huff and Puff, but I hear they closed their doors with in the last year. I know a UPS truck was offered, in fact I have one somewhere, but I can't remember who made it. I just looked and there is one on eBay right now. Just do an eBay search in the HO section for "chevy van". Wiseman model Services also has one listed at a reasonable Buy It Now price. I believe it is made with the old tooling.

I have one in N scale.  It was made by Gloor Craft.  Neat model, and like you said, easy to assemble.
