They are pad printed from the factory.

I hope this is the right forum for this guy. Love building these old Tom Daniel kits! Box stock

Just message them directly

Contact them directly, I just made this video two days ago on a body that was painted 2 months ago. This stuff was developed to strip lacquer and to be used on aircraft. It worked and I’ll be purchasing it. This was a sample given to me in order to test it. It works

Two months old. Lol

This stuff works great! Will strip lacquer also just as easy.

I have found that it's best to not clear coat molotow.

I used cheap hobby lobby craft paints and tamiya. The weathering and shadow effects are from a Army Painter Warpaints Quickshade Washes Set. Picked it up on ebay. One of the best "tools" I ever purchased for doing weathering and shading. They are great.

Unfortunately no progress. My model shop is disrupted with a furnace replacement. Also I bought an original 1968 Meyers Manx to restore and I've been tearing that down.

Great job Bill!!! Awesome!

After 9 months of not receiving parts , I finally got some progress. Not much but the firewall is assembled and detailed. The washer bottle is a clear bottomless tank. I made a bottom and filled it 1/2 way with blue tinted epoxy to look like it’s got washer fluid in it. Almost all parts in this assembly were detail painted in one way or another.

Got another rainy day build done. So much fun doing these old kits from when I was a kid!

Thanks for the kind words everyone. Merry Christmas! This will be a slow build. My bench is moved for furnace replacement in my basement. I’m limited in what I can build. Plus I just purchased a authentic Meyers Manx buggy to restore. I’m busy busy!!

Thanks everyone! I wanted the 3 pc body to be seamless. I built the interior then assembled it into the body & did the seams, masked then painted it. I would have never done this as a kid!! But these kits are really fun and build up nice

This was another rainy day build. I wanted the 3 pc body to be seamless so I had to build the interior then install it. Then mask it all off for filling & painting. These old Tom Daniel kits are great! Have a blast building them

Yes, it will be radio controlled.

This is the box for the kit and my 9 foot long work bench that I’ll be building it on. The boat is 1/4 scale, 54” long , will be about 30-40 lbs depending on my power choice. It will accept a 32cc weed eater engine or electric. I’ll probably go electric.

It will be 54” long

I’m starting this kit for the winter. It’s a old S & G Craft kit. I have the steering wheel finished. Hope to have it done by spring. We will see. The kit is laser cut with tons of machined parts.

The topside of the chassis to the bottom of the interior tub, firewall, thinning of the hood to sit flush with the front fenders.

Yes, only what was in the box

Another rainy day build. I love that they are reissuing these. But they do not go together easy. Lots of cutting & grinding to get it to sit right. Built box stock.

Thank you!

Thanks!!!
