I don't think anyone's mentioned the little hood scoops for '69 'Cuda 383 and 340s. 

They've never been included in the kit but very similar ones were included on the MPC '69 Camaro as a custom option.

I did have a set from the Camaro but after a move and 3 floods, there they are,,, gone.

 I used to use about a 6'4" to 6'6" thruster. If you need me to send you the finger board to scan I can. Who knows. They might sell pretty well.

I'm going to make it scale 6 ft long because that's already more than I want to do It's going to take 7 hours to make them Not a lot of resin but 7 hours because of how big they are and it'll be your job to clean up the bottom where the supports are

I'm glad you recognize that before even getting started on making a few.

I get it with louvered parts requests too.

The bigger issue with the surfboards is that you can go find a surfboard that's probably around the right size and a cheap toy and get it cheaper than I'm going to make it for I'm not dumb even though it's a popular item to put say on a beetle or a bus or maybe the back of a truck people aren't going to want to pay me to resin print one when they can go buy a cheap plastic one from some toy cheaper not going to make it most likely

While some of the kits come with some nice vintage style boards. I have yet to see a single short border with 3 fins. The finger boards are all too big. 

Anyway,  I hope you  are wrong and the wind up selling quote well. I hope they prove to be worth your while. You might be pleasantly surprised.
