 The KUSTOMCITY®  EVO "GT" Drag Bus!!         Dubbed:  "The Bubble-Nose" Type II Transporter

 

October 2007  (Sold out)

Introducing the All-New KUSTOMCITY® EVO GT DRAG BUS! 

The "Premiere 500," will make its first performance this Sunday, Oct 7th at 9 a.m. Pacific Time.  We managed to squeeze off only 500 units for this production run. 

From the chassis of the "EVO SS," this panel drag bus was created with so many slight changes including the arched "bubble-nose", to a straighter side fender rails that differs from the "SS" model.  What was the most time consuming part of designing this casting was the sleek rear wing.  Many plaster prototypes was rejected until it all came together.  If I recall, there was like a total of 5 different prototypes made  to get this bus looking as sleek and as low as possible before we started cutting the metal tool.  I dubbed this "The Bubble-Nose".  Just love way this turned out.

To design and engineer this bus takes more time than one would think and more time than I planned, but we engineered this one until everything came together...

Exclusive Online Dave Chang / KUSTOMCITY® Product only at:

K-TEK High-End Diecast Collectibles

Product Descriptions:  Introducing the EVO SS Concept Drag Bus.  This KUSTOMCITY® - Dave Chang Design Drag Bus that you see took well over 1 year to just get it right to perfection.  Slowly but surely, from the ground up, I had the pleasure of total creative control and co-engineered every aspect and every part that you see, including the exquisite, high-quality "diamond plate" display case that just brings this top of the line adult collectible all together.  These EVO's are manufactured in our factory in China and will be produced in "real" limited-edition numbers, only 984 total!  And each will be consecutive-numbered with it's very own "brush-metal", "Seal of Authenticity" Collector Label to distinguish and document each KUSTOMCITY® EVO. 

The "Artist's Proof Series" as shown will feature some of the hottest talents with their artwork plastered all over the EVO's!  Each will be deco'd through the tampo (pad print) process.  Very much a Limited Edition Numbered Artist's Prints, thus the "Artist Proof" Series.  It's a mix of art on a diecast canvas.  The First Issue of this release is the Dave Chang I & II.....more

 
 
 
 
 

 Cool Stuff...

  Take a good look at the "Auto-Stretch Rods" series produced by M2.  I was approached by this newly formed diecast company to do some graphics on some of their cars.  I was quite honored to be part of their line and very impressed with the quality of the diecast cars they produced.  They really know how to make a great product, and why not?  They been in the industry for quite some time. 

This line (the Auto-Stretch Rods) will have, of course, diecast metal bodies and chassis, along with opening hood and doors!  They will come in many scales but the one shown above is the 64th scale version and are about the same length as the EVO's.rd that there's a new shipment going out and these will be available in the mass market at Walmart and other retailers such as Target.  Be sure to check them out and add them to your collection.  I am confident you will enjoy these, they are that cool!
