Keef Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Perrys resins? im not sure but i like that Malibu *edit* actually the riviera wagon looks like the one from Resin Motor Replicas Edited September 16, 2011 by Keef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prostockmania Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Not listed on Perry's website, only a 2 door sedan and a 4 door wagon listed, neither of these are. I like Malibu too, thats why I bought it, lol. Also just realized, the buick is a chopped SD, even better, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannyclub Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 The Malibu wagon was first done by F&F Resin. Ed Fluck SR. (I belive it was done sometiime in 2000) I now have it but I need to make a new mold for it. I just poured 2 the other day and the roof section is getting thin. Prob by the end of the year I will have them out again. Cant wait to see what you do with yours! Im also not sure that body was done by F&F though, must be another copy of it made. I love that body style also. I just bought a 79 Malibu 2dr, cant wait to build that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prostockmania Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 mine will be turned into a slot car. Are you gonna recast it still as a Sedan Delivery?? or a 2 door wagon?or both, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannyclub Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 lol. Cool, slot car! I will be casting it again just like it is. Here is a shot of mine with mock up engine in it and one of the bodies I just poured the other day that is a little thin. Manny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Most Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 how do I go about getting resin body's in the mail that I don't know where they came from ? please help me have this dilemma. Just do trades for large groups of random kits- that's how I do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prostockmania Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 I knew where I bought them, but the seller did not list the maker, and no stamping like on some of the R&R stuff so I just wanted to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalCarCulture Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Can't tell you who cast those but this might inspire you to get the first one built. From this year's Mooneyes Open House & BBQ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Zimmerman Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I mastered that for Ed Fluck senior, back around 1997. I still have the original master , and it came with an interior, cowl hood, and front and rear bumpers. Ed also cast a similar 'bu wagon with the El camino SS front end and a rolled rear pan with 'vette tail lights; also mastered by me.

mannyclub Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Yea thats right Steve. I figured it was around 97 or so, last time it was offered was around 2000 or so I belive from F&F. The one I have is from one of the first pours of that body that Ed Sr. had. The Malibu with the SS front end I also have. Both are very cool and well done.

Steven Zimmerman Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Thanks ! I forgot to mention that it also came with a grille/ headlight unit, and was designed so the rear side panels could be trimmed for a 2 door wagon; used an AMT/ MPC Elky for a donor kit. The Revell El Camino kit WILL NOT WORK, it's 1/24 scale......'Z' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannyclub Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 your welcome! Yea that trimmed for the 2dr is cool! I have to get another donor kit for the Monty version. I have 4 versions of the Malibu wagon im gonna be building lol Manny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Zimmerman Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 The 'Monte' version has a chopped roof; Ed cast 2 versions of this one, but very few of the second version were cast before the mold broke. The second version has the ground effects that are on the first' monte' version,, but has the wheel well openings modified to resemble those on the 82/87 Monte Carlo . It was Ed's decision to call that a Monte Carlo Phantom sedan delivery, despite my objections.........'Z' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannyclub Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Hey Z, yea I have the chopped one, mold is pretty bad gota make a new one. I did get one good body from it a few years ago, still sitting in the box. I dont remember the Phantom and dont belive I have the mold for that one. Do you have a pic of that one?
