I totaly agree with you! i have come to the fact that since i only build 1/16th scale trucks and cars and all of them have one of a kind scratch built items, i have to cast them to have plenty of them to use for futcure kits. i have been building 1/16th for the past 20 years and their is not alot of kits to chose from. i have been working on some kits for years and still not finishd with them because of the fact that i have to make everything they don't make! so now i have about 20+ kits that i have made of fabricated and are at my casters house and we are making and building what every we feel is in the bast interest for 1/16th scale. i can proudly say that i am the only person in the world with a custom scratch built 1963 impala low rod. you would be suprised to find out that alot of toy companys are making 1:18th scale r/c cars and trucks that are so close to 1/16th scale. just head out to wal mart and target and see for your self. socalinc. and rmr resins are making and comming out with much more that you can imagin for 1/16th. check out the list i posted in the "big boyz"section under socalinnovations and see for your self. if you are looking for something in 1/16th scale just pm me and i'll give you a deatiled list.
thank you, Santiago aka" M.1/16th"
