Hello, He does have a full time job. If that email is correct, it might have went into his junk file. That has happened to me. I know because I ended up calling him. If you look at the bottom he has a form, to contact him. I tried to photo part of it, which is attached. Best, Ron

Having had the opportunity to correspond with "The Grande Vecchio" for about 3 years, up until his death in Aug. of 1988, I though some of you might enjoy this video. https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/145808/video-memories-of-enzo-ferrari

I forgot to mention that Scott at futurattraction makes a very nice one. fR-FAB9-1K Narrowed, Fabricated 9-Inch Ford Rear End Housing Kit w/Brakes $14.00 This recently designed one piece, fabricated 9-inch Ford rear with back brace and center section includes 3D-printed calipers and hats, plus PE caliper mounts (one spare), axle housing ends and slotted rotors.

Jeff, Outstanding looking model of the "Head Hunter" .

Michael, Much success with your 41 Willy's.

Just been notified that Model Motorcars has purchased Scale Hardware. Model Motorcars Ltd. Best, Ron Berke

Casey, One of the manufactures that you have listed Micro Nitro was sold some time ago. The new owner A.J., is on Facebook, but is still not set-up for business. I thought you were providing a list of Companies that did sell to the public. Although I have tried to contact him several times with no success. I did the same for the prior owner, but he didn't remember, because of his health.

Tim, I am terribly sorry about the accident. A brilliant model-er like you will surely rebound. Best, Ron Berke

Hello, Thanks everyone for taking the time to respond to my 41 Willys in progress. Kind of hit a wall. I surely appreciate your comments. Sorry Michael I don't have any thing new to report. I don't think I will be able to fit the scratch built 426 Hemi in this Willys. Thanks Memysel, Art, Dave, Bruce and Edgar. Art, that box design work done sure fooled me. I did not intend to be so delinquent in responding to your feedback. Back in late Feb.,early March like most on the forum use for wheels. I tried to obtain some aluminum wheels. Things did not work out well for these standard wheels and the project has stopped. I don't know where to go, and have lost all interest. Ron

Dwayne, I read your post on a chassis jig. Because I work in brass, I use both a SOLDERING BOARD CERAMIC HONEYCOMB with pins that you can find on eBay and my own similar to the Chassis shops made from 1/8" .125 Aluminum Sheet Plate 6" x 8" 6061 http://www.ebay.com/usr/metalremnantsinc You surely can use a metal surface instead of aluminum. I have a jig that I lay over the surface to drill my holes. I use aluminum with a Hakko soldering station on both surfaces with the pins and aluminum square cut-offs to hold things in place. As Misha stated always start laying it out on quadrille paper first. We all have are own way of doing things, but I hope this information I provided is helpful. Best, Ron

Hello, Thanks for everyone's interest in my WIP on my 41 Willys. I corrected the bell-housing issue. Started work on the Lenco Transmission frame section. Work continues. Here are the latest piks. Thanks
