DEL Posted October 30, 2019 Author Posted October 30, 2019 Thank you for letting us know, Greg. Greg is also doing extensive upgrades to his work area for mold and parts storage to help streamline to kit creation process. I know it's been a wait but do hang on, 'more betters' stuff coming too. (redneck said that to me one time?) That looks like some tough, hard to bend RTA in that pic too...
gator52 Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Thanks for the update Greg! Looking forward to this and future collaborative projects from you & Dwayne- Chris
Tom Geiger Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) Terry Jessee just did a review of this kit and your Nova on the Scale Auto site. Edited November 2, 2019 by Tom Geiger
Greg Wann Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) Yes, He and I have been emailing. I thought it was a very nice article. I only wish I were able to provide more of what he wanted. The CV kits are $110.00. He purchased one early on for $95.00 so that was the price in the article. A percentage of each one sold does go to it's creator for personal reasons, I doubt many other casters would do this with a project. Dwayne got ripped off by another person. I also include postage with sales to the lower 48, provide packing materials, resin /silicone materials, electricity, equipment, trip to the Post Office, etc. So, I 'm not exactly getting rich selling these kits so we needed to charge a bit more. They are a good quality value. Flash in openings pops right out. I make great looking tires. I am amazed the grille mold has held up so well. We are working to make molds that will make multiple copies. Marty has been helping me and Glen has too. Marty is slowly working on a site called Holy Grail Resin Emporium. Marty prefers to make parts and Glen has been working hard with organizing and putting up shelves and does clay up of parts. Clay up is timely and boring but is very important to a molds performance. I have mailed to other countries with USPS, usually around $40.00 to $50.00 USD. This is the cheapest way. Once it leaves the USA there is no tracking and I have to fill out a customs form, of course. There is something somewhat new called desktop injection molding but I would need to be able to 3d print the molds. It's roughly 4 grand to get started. Greg Edited November 3, 2019 by Greg Wann
Tom Geiger Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Greg, at $110 your Crown Vics are a very good value. It's pretty much a full kit, and all of it scratch built. And wonderfully cast! Anyone receiving them should be very happy. I know I am!
SR212787 Posted September 8, 2020 Posted September 8, 2020 Hi there. How can I get my hands on one of these?! I have been looking everywhere for a model like my car and this is really the only thing I have found minus a really rare and bad looking matchbox (I believe). I have sent a few emails but no response. Thanks My car SR212787.wixsite.com/website
Greg Wann Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Hi, Send a email to: hgresin@gmail.com and Marty will put you on the list. Covid has caused some problems. We got the 4 door Lemans from Dwayne. It is a nicer kit than this Crown Vic. I have the body mold done., but many more parts to do. Thanks, Greg
spkgibsonfirebird Posted April 8, 2024 Posted April 8, 2024 You really need to bring the 1977-'79 Ford LTD II out. Great looking car.
ncbuckeye67 Posted May 8, 2024 Posted May 8, 2024 I would love to see a line of 4-door law enforcement vehicles. Especially ones from the 70's & 80's! Of course I would need a late model Crown Vic too.
Wagonmaster110 Posted December 1, 2024 Posted December 1, 2024 (edited) What is the status on this resin kit? I would like to get one. Is anyone 3D printing one?? Tim Edited December 1, 2024 by Wagonmaster110 1
MikeyP Posted April 21 Posted April 21 New to the site. Really trying to follow up about obtaining this kit or is it now 3d printable? Thanks!
