Saw this on facebook:

Hello folks. My name is Matthew Arnold and I'm the new caretaker of AITM. I purchased the assets from the Natale family late last year. I'm currently working on remodelling a two car garage to facilitate casting, packing and shipping the large range of parts and kits. The goal is to be able offer the same rapid service we came to expect from the business. We hope to be operational some time in Q1 of 2025. Looking forward to working with all of you!

 

Best regards,

 

Matt

I was in touch with him a while back and he indicated he was going to start slow which I took to mean that the it may be a while before the entire line is available.  Good news is that Dave's legacy continues.

Ok, what is AITM?

American Industrial Truck Models. Dave Natale's Resin Truck Parts business. Had some of the Finest Resin Conversion sets and Wheels/Tires in the business. It looks like Matthew Arnold bought the molds and will continue the business. Three Cheers for Matthew!

I agree.  Too many times now, I was waiting to purchase, and then the vendor closed or went away.  (Still hoping Rookie Resin reboots, really wanting two sets of those 8' 1962-1966 Chevy Pickup sides.)

With the amount of good truck modelers that want parts he may be blown away with orders in no time flat. I wish him the best and a long time in the business.
