NEET new stuff from Ma's Resins

[george 53]

Guys, just a few minutes ago, the mailman dropped off the LATEST item from Ma's Resin. It's a COMPLETE front wheel drive unit from an Eldo/Toronado! It comes complete with Transmission Bell Housing Unlt, Transfer case,Drive unit(Differential),and axle shafts. It's a complete 9 peice unit and it looks GREAT!!! Think about the possibilitys! Man guys this setup is SWEET! I'm justa poppin in my head the things I can use it for! V-8 powered Volksie? With the motor where it belongs? In the BACK! Hopefully you guys can come up with your own ideas for it, caz it's REALLY nice! I DON'T know if it's in his catalog yet(I got the first one), But IF you got an JoHan Eldo,or Toro, you know what it looks like, an ya won't hafta butcher up a rare kit ta get one!!!

This is correct for any Johan or AMT Eldo/Toro. I compared the trees from several kits & they are identical.

I always wondered why I had ta work on the caddys all the time.

Great cars though. If I'd known they got that gooda gas mileage I'da had them yrs ago. What you need ta do is get Joy to write down what ta do fer ya and keep it next to tha puter so ya don't fergit. Or when CB gets there he can slap ya up side the head ta git yer attention.
