Has one ever been made?

Neither did any of us, once. 

Time to jump in.

I've been considering it my only hold up is i read where resin tends to warp over time.

Reread that thread. Resin warpage isn't a common occurrence. As Bill Engwer pointed out, defective resin products are a result of improper and inconsistent mixing ratios and/or substandard  materials. MCW, and other highly reputable casters, use only the best available material and follow strict manufacturing procedures to ensure the highest quality products.

Thanks for pointing that out. i have heard alot of people say resin cars are really thick and requires lots of work.

Some are. I have a '69 Barracuda convertible body from TMR that is not much different in thickness from a MPC '69 Barracuda styrene kit body.

Scott,  so many members here can point you in the right direction if you decide to go resin...

I just bought a resin body off eBay dated 1994. No warpage or other deterioration at all. Looks like it was poured yesterday.

I'll probably buy one and give it a try.

i have 65, 67, 69 and 70 coronets id like to have 66 and 68..

i thought certain paints and glue would cause warping with resin.
