Exotics_Builder Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Thanks for the kind words guys! At this point I have around 5 or 6 of each interior left in stock; and I do not think that the molds will hold out for too much longer. They are decent right now; but I wanted to give anyone who might still be on the fence a heads up in case they wait too long. I will probably cast a few more up and see where things stand. I made the molds back in 2014 so I can't complain.Ed, what is your website? Was it the old Drag City Casting? I couldn't find any reference to these interiors.

krassandbernie Posted December 16, 2015 Author Share Posted December 16, 2015 I just thought I would show you guys (who have purchased interiors from me) how I attach the door handles and window cranks to the door panels. The photos here show a personal build ('40 Ford coupe) that I have slowly been working on for years; but the method would be the same. I also thinned out the door handles and window cranks to make them look more accurate; and stand off of the door panels.

krassandbernie Posted December 16, 2015 Author Share Posted December 16, 2015 The one thing I like about pinning the door handles and window cranks is that it makes it easier to paint them. I can brush a coat of Testors gloss black on them and let them sit overnight before brushing two coats of Alclad on them. Any more than that and they lose the chrome look.

mademan Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Just received my interiors and the only thing im not happy about is that there isnt more money in the budget to order more right now! Super cool interiors, I cannot wait to build with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krassandbernie Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 (edited) Thanks Mike! One thing I just noticed the other day is that there is a slight fitment issue with the mounting tabs on the front seat for the '57 Chevy interior. My molds are getting older; and the plug for the front seat in both molds must be flexing just enough to allow the width between the mounting tabs to become a hair shorter. I think I may have found a remedy for that. Basically, the front seat won't drop right into the mounting holes in the kit supplied floor pan now. So, you will either need to open up the slots in the floor pan a hair on each side; sand the mounting tabs down (on the inside surface), or remove them from the bottom of the seat all together. Other than that, I cannot see any other issues with the front seat. I just thought I would let you guys know what I discovered so you didn't think I goofed up some how! LOL!

echo Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I received my '57 Chevy interior pieces from Ed and they are really nice, should make the model stand out. The service I received from Ed was top notch, prompt and the pieces were perfect. If you are remotely thinking about getting any of these interiors, get them before they aren't available.

krassandbernie Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 If anyone would like to snag another one of these interiors while I still have some left; or has not been able to spare the funds I would be willing to do some horse trading for any of the kits listed below.

krassandbernie Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) I thought I would pop in here to let you guys know that I remolded the '50 Olds tuck'n roll interior again. It has been 6 years since I came out with it! I only made one set of molds this time (instead of two); so once they're gone this time I don't foresee a third round. The cost is $20.00 plus shipping. I also still have a limited number of '57 Chevy and '57 Ford tuck'n roll interiors left. Those will surely be going off-line for a while if not for good at this point in time. There are a handful of new items just added to my Fotki albums that are now available in my product line. Feel free to drop me a line if you are interested in anything or if you have any questions. Thanks!
