Chuck Most Posted May 17, 2012 Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) First off, we have the daycab shell. You've probably seen it, but I think it needs to be seen again. It is a very well done piece. Haven't tried test fitting any kit parts to it yet, but expect a full rundown once I do. Next up, here's the custom grille. This I did test fit, and it dropped nicely into the Lonestar kit hood grille opening, though a little bit of gentle massaging is required to get it to fit flush with the top of the hood. No big deal there, and the Moebius kit grille needs the same treatment to fit the best it can too. Both parts have only minor wisps of flash, and there was no evidence of serious warpage or other distortions in either casting. This was my first time doing business with Dave, but it will NOT be the last time. In fact, I'm buying a second daycab, so I'll be prepared for when the Prostar kit comes out! Grille sells for $10, and the cab is $25, both less shipping and handling. Prices are very fair for the quality, and delivery time was quick. Thanks, Dave! Edited May 17, 2012 by Michigan Madman
Danno Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 When you say "Dave Lonestar" I take it you are actually referring to Dave "Cargostar" Carey, correct? I haven't had the pleasure of having any of his resin castings yet, but I understand they are excellent! I see you agree.

But, yeah, these are cast by none other than Mr. Cargostar himself.
cargostar Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 I'm glad you like them Chuck. If anyone is interested in either of these drop me a pm and I can fill you in on the details
raildogg Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 I have emailed him and haven't yet recieved a reply, but, in this thread I've found the price of a day cab for the new Lonstar kit by Mobious. Now can someone suggest a way to order one from him ?.
cargostar Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I checked my emails and didn't find anything from you. Drop me another email to cargostar@hotmail.com Thanks! Dave
