He is a member of the MTDG on Yahoo. It may take him several months to restock, depending if the resin casters are even making those items anymore.

You can use automotive paints on plastic models as so long as you seal the plastic properly. Use a good primer. I myself first use a light coat of Krylon primer. Krylon is an excellent barrier between the plastic and any type of paint. Then I use two light coats of Testors white primer. You can also use a can of flat white paint if that is not readily available. This will be a neutral base color for any other paints you choose to use.

I found a Pinecrest International 8200 resin kit in my stash. Forgot I had it. Above average casting, but the resin is typical of the 1980s tech. Some what brittle.

I could use a F-2275 hood for an Ertl kit I have. Can you do one?

Your International cabs and hoods reminded me that I have a Pinecrest International 8200 trans kit. I will post some photos when I get the camera.
