Repstock Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) 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.

NOBLNG Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Uuh. Unless you’re planning on leaving the trunk lid off... I think you’re in the wrong section. Not that I don’t appreciate the traffic here. LOL!😁 Edited February 20, 2021 by NOBLNG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danno Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Tom, The caster is charging you to cast the body?? Most good casters are happy to cast a finely mastered body - with necessary widgets and gadgets like bumpers, grilles, seats, interiors, dashboards where necessary, etc. - supplying you an agreed-upon number of the product and reserving your authorization (read that "license") to sell them to the public. 🌵😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing 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.

charlie8575 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) I'm game. Any feel for how much you'll be looking for for one of these? I see a Capri Cream 250/PG Grampy car coming from this. Charlie Larkin Edited February 26, 2021 by charlie8575 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repstock Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede70 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Indeed - that looks really nice. Good to see the side trim come off in particular... Mike K./Swede70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repstock Posted March 21, 2021 Author Share Posted March 21, 2021 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I'm asked for a phone number, I just use my home phone unless it's absolutely necessary to use my mobile phone. Worst case, there's always the option of a money order, certified, or bank cheque, and 2-day mail for a tracking number.

Charlie Larkin More likely they want to track your activities to aim advertisements toward you (and your phone). From Rachael, the Paypal moderator: Thanks for posting in relation to this issue.Unfortunately it is not currently possible to use PayPal without a mobile phone number attached to your account. This does not need to be a smartphone, a basic mobile will do. We use mobile verification as a means of confirming your identity when you are accessing your account.Rachael Edited March 22, 2021 by Repstock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
