Hey Gordon!!This is just a "Test" to see if I could do it, Now I know I can...But,I plan on a second truck to be made as a "Buck" to cast, If...I can find a resin caster to do the cab and interior and engine only... I don't know anything about resin casting!!! I would be glad to share but right now it's wait and see,And I know that sux!!! And you also know theres a very limited market for something like this...Alot of things factor into the feasibility of this being done,Especially the affordability or cost to the consumer and be able to make some kind of profit at the same time...If you aren't making any money...Then theres no reason to produce it...All I can say right now is...Only time will tell...Thanks Roy

Hey Gary!! I've heard alot of bad things about the Lonestar too!! You hit on some of the things I heard about and saw for myself!! The instructions...Are a "Joke" at best and the fit and finish.....It's a "P-O-S" that looks like an oversized "PT Cruizer". And a buddy of mine had so much trouble building the engine that he Litterally glued the hood shut!!!! My opinion is they should stop production on this "Nightmare" and fly it across a few more drawing boards before pushing that "Garbage" on truck builders again!!! Maybe the Prostar will be better!!! Only time will tell!!! Other than wasting your hard earned money, You did the right thing by tossing it!!! Moeibus should be ashamed for not trying to help you because of their SHODDY products and poor workmanship!!!! I won't buy any of their products and if enough builders "voice" their displeasure...Maybe they will rethink their services...
