Repstock

I'll let the casters announce when they're ready to sell, but here's what I've got: The 1977 Cougar is made from Paul Hettick's excellent Thunderbird kit...ready to ship. The 1967 Chevrolet 4-door I was going to sell myself, but recent developments at Paypal have forced me to reconsider how to pay the caster to get it done. This one may be delayed. The 1978 Chevrolet pickup with Silverado trim added. I couldn't bring myself to sand off the beautiful Scottsdale scripts...you'll have to do it. This is going to a Detroit area caster. Not shown is the 1971 Oldsmobile 98 Regency, which just needs a few touch-ups before it's ready to ship for casting.

Looks like trouble. I was going to pay the caster with my Paypal funds, but I'm locked out of my account because I don't have a cell phone. Pretty sure I'm not going to be coerced into purchasing one just to please them.

I've been locked out of my Paypal account because I don't have a cell phone. You could say I'm a bit irked. My address is verified, what more do they want?

Master is complete and smoothed out. I'm most of the way to raising money for the casting. I went ahead and removed the Impala trim, she's bare-bones now.

No sense following this one any more. I sold it as is.

I'd like to check my work before sending out parts.

Thinking about picking this up again. I've had it at this stage for years...The paint is not as good as the photos suggest.

It's on the list. Kits with fewer parts are less expensive to cast, so it's a good candidate.

Believe it or not, casting is closer than ever. I have a few others to do first. I'll need to fix the Dodge grille first.

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but i tried one, and didn't get the grille right. Can you supply more pics of your front end so I can fix it? Should probably do it outside this thread, cmhjets@outlook.com.

Just the body shell.

We discussed different options. In the past, I've always gotten a few examples from the caster, and whatever they made after that was theirs. This caster preferred to offer me an entire run, and then I make my money back by selling them. I know of a very large caster that will also sell entire runs, return your master, and have no further stake in it. I'm OK with either system.

No just the body, It's all I can afford just to have the body cast.

Seems an odd combination. An extended wheelbase F-350 Super Camper Special full of heavy duty components, with a six. I'm not slamming, because there is no reason a truck could not be ordered this way. Makes you wonder about the back story for this truck, why the original owner ordered it this way. Adds to the mystique!

My error, I guess a moderator will have to move it(?)

I'm converting the Supernatural Impala to a 4-door sedan. I'm leaving the side trim, as it is easier to remove than add. This body is more suitable for police use. I have a deal with a caster, I just need to finish this and raise the money for the initial run. If interested, stay tuned.

I see the old west, but what I hear is: "Come on now, don't be naive, Lieutenant. We both know how careers are made. Integrity is something you sell to the public... Frank, we must all compromise..." I'll leave it there. Great job...I see the Robert Vaughn when I look at the figure. Really nice work.

I've got a Duster promo the same color! I also have those wheel covers. If you're so inclined, Krylon Short Cuts Bonnet Blue (spray enamel) is a very close match. (KSCS070)

I'm going to do the Mack conversion as Anderson concrete.

I'm planning an early '70s Winnebago Chieftain. I have all the reference I need except a good look at the underside. I have drawings, but nothing beats looking at the real thing. I've only found one in my area, and the owner refused to let me take any pics. My only option, it seems, is to network. If anyone can help, my E-mail is cmhjets@outlook.com. It's a longshot, but who knows? Thank you in advance!

You didn't ask this, but if you're trying to make the underside reasonably detailed and correct, you might want to do the same for that '75 front end. It's not very close.

In case anyone is interested, Air Trax was/is offering the round headlight Cordoba. I have both versions, and definitely prefer the round headlights. I'm not at home, so I can't show a pic. It's on this list, though.

I really appreciate that. Thank you!
