Very nice Jeff. I got a lot of my "used car lot" diorama stuff from SMBC. Good prices and good service.

Hey Jeff,I have a couple of questions for you:
1)Do you work for Chris at SMBC??
2)I won the diner on E-Bay and was wondering if there are any hitches to putting it together or is it straight forward just like the showroom and 2 and 3 bay garages.I have the 3 I just mentioned and had no problem putting them together at all.If you work for Chris or not either way it's the best stuff going right now as far as I'm concerned,look forward to seeing more from them.Oh!!I forgot to mention the drag racing dio acc. also I got from him and can't wait to get the drag strip started.

hi george. im sort of a contractor of smbc. i run motor city resin casters out of theyre building, and i do alot of theyre masters and a bit of theyre castings. its a great relationship, and its helped mcrc become a much better company. the drive in fits together very well. the building is all styrene and is made on a precision ingraving machine. all the acessories are done in resin. both smbc and mcrc have a ton of new projects in the works. stay tuned.

I hope I did'nt step on any toes with my comment about SMBC.I did'nt know there was another resin caster working with Chris.The drive-in is going to be a great addition to my diorama(Smallville)another hang out for rodders,thanks for the info on how it goes together and I'll be looking for more great stuff from you guy's.
