Hi, My name is Stan. I have been doing modeling since I was 10 (a long long time ago). I have been collecting Corvair Models since the Mid 70s. Back then the unbuilt $1.00 kits of the 1960s were around $20. bucks. Now they are $200.!
I specialize in scratch building "one-of" cars that the kit makers didn't really make a kit of, or if they did I turn the Coupes into convertibles and the 4drs into wagons. I am also working on Autorama cars, and other Corvair based actual cars - or even cars that existed as a "one-of" show car at one time in the past. There is also a slew of 60s Barris and Roth based specialty cars that used Corvair engines, trans-axles and frames.
I started many of these before there were resin kits and now I am looking to buy, build and modify those resin kits also. Many of theses are planned for my retirement in a few years.
Thanks,
Stan
Need 1/25 scale set of tank tracks and associated "wheels and drivers"

I am completely scratch building an obscure military vechicle that is Corvair powered. It is the Canadair CL-91/Army XM-571 Dynatrack articulated personnel carrier. All I have is the Corvair Engine and a lot of Photos and drawings. I will also need some flat plate (plastic like from a large tank (but this one will be 1/25. It is small - 1 bout 8 ft long full size. I know the a lot of tanks are don in 1/35 scale and this would make the vechicle 2- 2.5" long (?) hence the larger 1/25 scale.
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks
Stan Light
