Well, at the end of quoted statement by the plant manager....they are gearing up for a restart on their own account....no further details were listed. Hopefully that happens and we can share any updates!!

The one in my area has had them for awhile, just finally decided to get one, ya know... since it was the last one on the shelf! I'm sure they will be replenished.

Picked up the Ford at Hobby Lobby, Porsche is a partial kit from eBay.

I don't know what is different, but it works! Sometimes, I'll experience a bit of breakage, but not a lot (usually on sharp bends). Anything from hand bending to using a bending tool from my slot car days.

I've had great success using the styrene rod sold from the guy on eBay when making exhaust and headers.

Thanks, as an experiment, I found this chrome spray at Michael's. Looks ok, like many others, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Rails are laid in, minus corners.

Here's the bed in primer and wood floor finished. Notice the cutout/recessed area at the top of the bed, as is in a 1:1. I still need to add the supports under the bedrail, cut and install the metal strips.

I could be wrong, but that looks more like heavy fish eye. Something not playing nice together and separating. But I haven't used the enamel yet.

I did a quick search, here's a link to his eBay items, just scroll down to... sellers other items https://www.ebay.com/itm/256141408868?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=609VLjblRAW&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=nnyVb6gkTD2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

I realize you asked about painting on molded in color, but here's an example from several years ago. I decided to pull out a stalled project because of paint and decal issues. Tamiya paint, no primer, also some sanding.

Yes prime! One, it does help you find imperfections (as mentioned above), two, it puts a barrier between the paint and plastic if you need body work, three, the paint will adhere to the plastic, so if imperfections are present in the paint... stripping becomes challenging. My two cents

New exhaust and gas tank

Great work, thanks for posting. Lots amazing builds! Great to see your girls involved in the hobby!!

Quick update, I looked over the truck bed and decided I didn't like it, so here we go. For starters, I'm changing the bed floor to real wood and adding the rails next, after I made a bit of tooling make them. Also the sides are incorrect, they are not flat, but angle out to the bedside. I scribed them and waited to finish until I got the floor ready. I also added a gas tank and have to reroute the exhaust , that in the next update.

A few items from the Sharon,PA show. Also parts from my friend Ron.

Thank you!!

Can anyone identify the year of Mecom Lola T-70 reproduced in the Union kit?

Exhaust system installed..

Jim Heller on eBay has a wide variety of racing decals, I have personally not used them yet, but you can check their feedback.

Drive lines are in, cross member had to be recombobulated.

Similar curiosity, I have some ... black chrome BMF.

I know what you mean, I just got an orbital sander yesterday packaged the same way, and looks as bad! To add, the Amazon facility is literally 5-7 minutes from my house.

Engine details so far...
