Looks great. First Gear are great value. I have a few of their rods and vans, and also no matching 1/24, 1/25 issues.

Yes for a period of time First Gear made those hot rods for various auto parts stores. Carquest and Napa used them and their quality was really nice.

Looks awesome Geno! I don't have any First Gear models, but based on what I see in this Nomad, I'd certainly add it and others if they were be available. Great pics too!
