Are they still in business? Does anybody know of a current way to contact AirTrax? I have been leaving e-mails and pm's all over the internet to no avail.

 

I am looking for a Volvo P1800 coupe and some Ferrari kits. If anyone has one available, please contact me.

Yes they are. Have you tried to contact Email adress raurata@yahoo.com?

 

It should work just fine, Tapani is very nice guy to deal with.

 

Bodies are excellent quality too, even if they might be a little pricey, but totally worth it, IMO.

I second Niko.

 

This is a page showing many of their pieces to drool over.

I wrote up a review of their Volvo P1800 for MCM, not published yet, but it is NICELY mastered, even though their casting techniques are not up to, say, Modelhaus standards.  They are, though, still in business.

Are these items 1/24th scale? I must have the P1800 ES, Amazon and SAAB!!!!

I have Tapani's P1800 and can vouch for how nice it is. Just some minor cleanup as the following pics will show, but there are some pieces that you'll have to supply on your own such as the rear diff, and front suspension. You'll have to fashion your own glass as well.

 

 

You can view the rest of my pics here. One downside was the high price due to the dollar vs. the Euro, but for me it was worth it.

 

My kit is NOT for sale however as I'd like to replicate a '65 1:1 I once owned years ago.

I have been trying to reach them to get one of their 81 Dodge Miradas... they are like 150.00

Yes.

 

 

 

These are really nice, I have few what are damaged while molding process, they were very cheap to get. Even they are very good quality. Even if the price may sound high, those are really worth buying.

[Elliot949]

Well I just manned up and bought the 83 Mirada... pricey but it will be unique...

Out of interest, will this be available to read online later on*?  I'm in the middle of building this model at the moment (my first resin kit - I also have both their Amazon / 122S & Jag Mk10 kits in my to-build pile) & would be interested to know how it compares to other makers

 

*I would subscribe if there was a digital subscription option.

 

Also, for reference info on the 1800 & Amazon, I can highly recommend these two websites:
