Tires are on the way Tonio.........please let me know when they arrive.

[76-77 Olds Cutlass/442]

Does anybody make one? If not........any interest in one?

Thanks in advance!!

[Ma's Resin]

I'm here guys!!!! I've answered all the emails I've received so not sure why some would get returned?? 3 options to get me are:

cnaind@ptd.net or idsaw57@ptd.net or call me at 610-573-9219. Be sure you use .net instead of .com on the email. I don't have time to get on the boards lately so please don't use PM or post if it's important.

Yes, the real job has been very busy this year(which is a good thing) but I hope to have alot more time in the near future as I'm trying to sell off my company & "retire". I've been running my own company since 1988 & travel world-wide but even that gets old.

Then I can cast most of the time instead of whenever there's time. I enjoy the challenge of mastering & casting and plan to keep it going as long as possible.

Many thanks to all customers.........past, present & future

["Colored Tires"]

Hankook makes orange tires?!? And I just bought a set of Firestone w/w s Bugger!!

Anyone else remember Metzler Blue Blizzards?? A hydrophilic tire with bright blue tread!

[How Far Would You Travel To A Show?]

Utah from central NJ is the farthest I"ve gone. Since I travel a lot for work I check for shows and fellow modellers near my destination. Sometimes I even buy them dinner.......

Also..................I run the club table(T-shirts, buttons are back!!) at NNL East every year, so here's an open invite to all board members to stop by & say "Hi".

[Ma's Resin]

Yes, all of the off-road tires are still available

Thanks for all the kind words guys! I'll am working on the Grand Am/GTO along with some modular wheels for Off-road tires(Thanks Jeff) & a Dodge Ram Cummins engine(finally!).

[What Do You Want To See Next?]

Doesn't somebody already make the Cheetah in resin?

[Ma's Resin]

The Facel Vega has a ways to go yet. I think the Grand Am/GTO is going to be out first as I need to master some suspension components for the Amphicar which will bump it to #2 on the release list. The Norseman looks like # 3(or it could be #2), the Mormon Meteor III is #4 the Facel Vega #5 with the Mormon Meteor I #6. I'm thinking about adding a '60s GMC fishbowl bus & a '60s schoolbus if there's enuff interest.

[Ma's Resin]

Poncho is getting closer.......still working on the interiors........Norseman interior almost ready.

Amphicar is 99% done...will go into production soon.

[Any interest in a new cheater?]

Soon Georg-e-o.....just have to finish the interior. Finished up the Amphicar interior today so looks like that will be the first one out the door. Fill up the bathtub & drag race against your rubber ducky

[Any interest in a new cheater?]

[Resin offroad tires]

Thanks Jeff!

I don't have anything like the first tire but is the second one the same as the Power wagon or Jeep tire? I'm making the wheels & tires from the Italeri Mil jeep now & they are a slightly smaller version of the PW tire.

[Ma's Resin]

Yes Bill........the Chrysler at the bottom of the ocean

[Pictures of your kit collections (waiting to be built)]

From what I know, they Used Cars kits where sort of a press release for the movie that where sent out to T.V. and radio stations to promote the movie. From what I read, and I have never seen one of these kits in person, the contents are parts that do not even go together! And the instructions are some crazy setup on how to build your used car. Someone once said they found a Camaro in the box with other misc parts.

I just have a soft spot for show biz related kits.

There were 500 of the Used Cars kits made & they were given out for radio station giveaways. Inside the box is a 75-76 Camaro kit molded in black from MPC. The instructions are just a cartoon that have nothing to do with the Camaro. There is also a movie poster & a book for translating "Used car salesman lingo" to english. One of my rarer kits next to the Taylor Autocar.

[Pictures of your kit collections (waiting to be built)]

At this point I'm more collecting than building but some day I'll get back to building

Too many pics so here's a link if you're interested - http://public.fotki.com/cnaind/kits/

Gotta thin 'em out this year!

[Futurattraction Scale Products - New aftermarket website]

[Ma's Resin's Radial Drag Slicks]

Yes Joe, that's me. Easiest way is to email to cnaind@ptd.net.

Thanks!

[First time at Resin molding ...]

Looks very nice Geoff. I think you have all the basic techniques correct & best of luck with your projects.

[Any interest in a new cheater?]

Thanks guys..........I should have them out in Feb.

Dan & Rob - click here http://public.fotki.com/cnaind/ to see the other stuff I have.

Thanks again

[Any interest in a new cheater?]

I'D LOVE TO SEE THESE IN 1/16..

WOULD THEY HAVE THE FLAGS OR TWO GROOVES?

I can make them both ways, which ever is prefered.

[Any interest in a new cheater?]

Thanks for getting the photo up Eelco!

Brian - I would make them as 1 piece rubber blackwall or 2 piece with the w/w insert. I could also make them in resin as requested.

Craig - I do make the old M&H cheaters in 8, 9 & 10" as well as the M/T Holley & Blue Streak cheaters.

[Any interest in a new cheater?]

[New to resin.........need help]

Soaking in Bleche-White, Purple Power or other good degreaser is needed to remove any mold release & silicone oil that may be present. After that, you can primer,sand, fill, etc. Also remember to use super-type glue or epoxy for assembly. Hope this helps!
