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.

Just got this resin 4x4 drivetrain kit from ebay. If Texas 3D Customs made something like this, I think they would sell pretty good.

how about a replacement side door for a 1980 Hess training Van.....(looks like a GMC motorhome)

A while back there was an aftermarket company that did that!  Anyone remember?  Are they around any more?

Are you gonna seriously tell me that there is no market for modern day short surfboards? Why do resin casters stay away from these?

Have 2 I made and one professionally made that just needs to be scaled down to 1/25 1/25.

Right now I'd say it's around 1/10.

This one could be scanned and scaled down to 1/24, 1/25, 1/18 or 1/16. I'm not quite sure how that would work. 20221225_141453.thumb.jpg.618ca573c4a678b30dc96cd245865f8d.jpg20221225_141442.thumb.jpg.2f2c4ca9470fae54f29218482b3adc2b.jpg

 

Fine I will make some surfboards, how long is a real one 1:1 typically

 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

Oh and they won't sell I'm not naive and I already know that

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.
