Thanks Rob.  I thought they looked backwards too, but never really  thought about reversing them! Great idea!

Nice job so far!  How do you guys feel about the pattern on the inside of the body to open up the wheel wells?  I don't think it looks quite right.  It almost looks like it would open them up too much and that it makes too much of an arch.

If 1000 people show up for the rolercoaster on a regular basis, the park builds a second one. It appears that Randy has been "overwhelmed" by business for years now. If he is getting enough business that it's taking 6 months or mor to ship, he is getting enough business to hire help to speed things along. I'm sure he is not getting much more business than the modelhaus, yet they get their orders out in a timely fashion.

I experienced a very long delay with Perry's years ago, and because of it have not ordered again. It took the help of some Canadian modelers that had contact with Randy to finally free up the product, all of which was being sold at shows during the 11 months I waited.

However, the silver lining was that the product I got was superb. With all of the Perry's delivery delay stories I've read online...and there have been many...I've never heard of anyone who didn't eventually get what they ordered. The wait times, and the lengths people had to go to to get it may have been absurd, but eventually it seems people get what they ordered.

No question on the quality.  He's got great stuff. When I ordered though, I told him I needed the stuff pretty quick and he responded that "he'd start ot get it cast" for me.  Again, that was November '09 and the last contact to me (regarding that order, lol)!

Some people don't do enough research and make decals for a car that never was and builds a car that never was. Just because their names are popular in the hobby doesn't mean that they don't make mistakes.
True. Cady's decal sheet for the "Bob Ford" T-Bolt builds either the "yellow or silver car."  It was never silver but actually "Champagne Gold"  The old photos make it look silver.
