Anyone know of a '70 Challenger flat hood?

I ordered the hood from Time Machine Resin, but when I emailed to inquire about the status I got the following message:

"Your order has been received.  Website orders usually take at least four weeks.  Right now we are running behind on shipping website orders so it may take a little longer.  Thanks for your order.

Time Machine Resin."

I find that to be a bit silly, since casting takes less time than responding to my email, lol. I'm not going to cancel my order, I'd just like something a little faster than maybe a month. If not I guess I'll try to make my own in the mean time.

I checked eBay and didn't see anything, do you have the contact info you could send me?

I started makog my own, doesn't seem too hard, but it would be nice to have a fall back...

Ian, I can include the dual scoop hood if you want.

Nah, thats OK. I'm working on a hood right now from a Shaker, if it doesn't work out I'll just wait for the Time Machine hood and hope the paint matches being sprayed at a later time, if I can't find something faster.

TMR just emailed back and said they'd try to get it out sooner, that would be cool. I think my fab skills suck, lol.

Sure, that is about all the time it takes to pour resin into a mold. But there is much more to resin casting than that. Jeff is a stand up guy who like nearly every other resin caster has a "real" job, family, etc, to share time with. Even Modelhaus states four to six weeks on their website. Patience, grasshopper.

I'm sure he is, and I've read nothing but great reviews. I cast alot of resin parts, I know the process, I guess that's why i want t faster, lol, maybe I'm just impatient. Ok yea, I am impatient

This wasn't meant to be a bash on him, just explained why I was looking for another source, because the obvious option wasn't immediately available.

Ian.. Not sure if you plan on coming to the Motor City nnl but Time Machine will be at the show and should be able to bring you the hood to the show.. His tables will be right next to mine..
