VRM

Well, lots of things going on that are wrapped or wraping up, so that is good. Four eye surgeries, a big software release we have been working on for years, and lots of other things. Anyway, the corrections are complete, and I will be adding the Pete Consiglio #19, Dick Smith Daytona, 427 Dragon Snake, 'Spinout' #11, and maybe a couple of others. Maybe an FIA car with prunes... 😎 The first three are already done, but I have not completed the layout. This will essentially turn the package into a double sheet. Dont have a release date yet, but work has been going slowly, but steadily (finally!). Cheers!

Sorry for my phone photos...these are hard to photo...the middle Boxster and left is gold foil or metallic gold, all else to the right is chrome foil.

Just saw this thread...if only we knew a guy... These will not be on any website, and are reserved for the cool people here and at whatever show I manage to get to.

Hi Gerry, Do you have any plans for the set of double spoke wheels from the Lusso kit? I have a bunch of VRM decals and a bunch of other things for trade if you are interested. Thanks! Steve D

I hope AMT has designed this with correct 71 door panels, and it would be very nice if they happened to fit the Duster kit as well. The door panels in the AMT 71 Duster kit are for a '72. It would be great to have accurate door panels for both '71 and '72.

You are going to love it! I think it arrives tomorrow. And you got the cheap local shipping...

Well, I listed 3 Coronet kits at $40 each on Ebay + shipping and they all sold within 48 hours. I guess when you gotta have it...

I picked up 6 of them Wednesday, and by Friday my distributor was already sold out. The retail cost is listed at 41.99...that Ebay price might be going up soon.

I think this is a GREAT kit, but I would make some corrections for future releases as most of them are really easy. My biggest letdown was the decal sheet, which could have easily addressed the biggest fail (IMHO) of the kit. These go on the interior on the upper part of each door. They are about 15 inches long and are pretty obvious by their absence. The interior is otherwise really good and looks like it will build up very well. The lower metal door frame is not defined very well, but I dont think it will be all that visible even in a convertible. Next up on the decal sheet (as a nice to have, not something wrong) would be the Dodge lettering for the rear panel and the dual accent pinstriping in red, white, and black. Those would be a lot more useful than all the flowers. Finally, my last nit is the air cleaner...the raised ridges looked 'off' when I opened the kit, but it was not until I went and looked at one that I saw what was wrong. None of these things will prevent me from buying a kit - it is fantastic (4.5 out of 5 in my book) and I hope we get the 68 Bee and 69 variants as well. I'm in for at least 3 of each.

I am good for 3 sets, but it needs to have the right 70 hood (as shown above, the 71/72 are different), and hopefully the proper interior.

Yeah, someday...

Anything new (like an ETA) on this? I've been working on an original and I am wondering (hoping) that the new one will have good GT stripes and other decals, along with dual redlines as on original GTs. I also want to use those really good looking headlights and gas cap to finish my build.

Trying to find out where I can get an interior set in 25th sale like this one. This type was in 73-75 Firebirds.

What did you use or the '74 custom interior seats and door panels?

Yep, still alive and kicking. I just sent Michael his order - I have some sort of data corruption with his address/email. He was able to contact me through this board. I do have a bunch of stuff to resend to Cartograf, including the Big Block Cobra corrections, but just have not been able to get it done. Hoping to actually get some downtime to work on model stuff in the next few months. Definitely want to have some cool new stuff available for the NNL East. Thanks, Steve
