ramonesblues Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 Does anyone have any knowledge of Drag City Castings as far as quality and service?. They have some pretty neat stuff, but I have never heard anything about them.
Billy Kingsley Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 That's Eddie Fluck, his father Ed was the owner of F&F Resin; don't know about mail order service but the hood I bought for a friend at MASSCAR was of excellent quality.
Irvin Arter Jr. Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 I know Ed personally and his stuff is very nice. At this link you can see my 53 Studebaker I bought and built from Ed. http://public.fotki.com/IrvinArterJr/irvin...-54_studebaker/
Modelmartin Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 I bought the Willys Pickup and 28 Chevy AA/SR from him at NNL East and am delighted with the quality and the cool subjects.
Wildrice Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 Ed is top notch. Great product and great service.
ramonesblues Posted April 23, 2007 Author Posted April 23, 2007 Thanks guys, I appreciate the info.I am lusting after that '55 Pontiac sedan and safari.
Lyle Willits Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 Ed (Drag City) will be at the MID-ATLANTIC NNL on May12. Dennis,,,,,,,,I know that's too far for you to drive. That was for the east coast guy's benefit (and also a cheap and sleezy oportunity to, once again, advertise our show)
flatheadgary Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 hi guys. i just bought and received the hugh tucker aa/sr body. let me tell you, ed is a way cool guy to deal with. he got back to me with email so fast i didn't have time to think what else i needed to tell him. the aa/sr is excellent. i don't know how he has time to deal with people with all the products he makes. he is a race car guy like me so i don't have any complaints. i will buy again as soon as my finances will allow. i thank the powers that be that there are people like him that make such cool things the factories won't. no i am not related in anyway with him or his business. i just had such an excellent experience with my first resin purchase i just needed to tell somebody.
s10chevypu Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 I put in a order not to long ago with ed. I ordered 5 hoods & a 1960 ford wagon resin kit. I had to email him on the shipping cost, and he got back to me the next day with the info. don't know what the stuff looks like, have not got them yet. I liked the response time from him. joe barbato
Marc @ MPC Motorsports Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I just got his '60 Ford Falcon and several hoods. Nice clean castings and if he has the items in stock, he ships immediately.
Modellpularn Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Yeah, Ed's a cool guy! I found his '33 Willys pickup on ebay, and I asked if he could ship to Sweden. Sure, no problems. The stuff is very good, and we e-mailed back and forth, he told me about the real car - Red Baron driven by his friend Ken Kull. I found the pic of the real car on Schneider Cams site, and I just went nuts when I saw it, so cool. I thought it looked orange, but Ed told me: it's red, I helped him - (Ken Kull) build it, I gave him the inside door handles"!! How often do you get info like that? Yeah, I would definately recommend Drag City Casting. No, I haven't built the Willys yet, but I still think it looks orange..... :wink: At least in those pics at Schneider's site....
