Bridgebuster Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 Absolutely interested . . . in several. I've gotten a few mills from VCG before and they're excellent quality.
66belair Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 I'll be in for a couple too,that'll be nice in an old Chevelle or Camaro
Toast Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 this will be perfect! I'll have a couple corvette kits that can keep their engine parts.
LOBBS Posted May 28, 2013 Author Posted May 28, 2013 The master for the crate motor is cleaned up and ready to go. I just received an extra set of engine halves so that I can remake the master for the stand alone T-56 six-speed. Everything will be sent off to VCG in the next couple of days.
matthijsgrit Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 Would you ship outside the USA? And would I order directly from you or through VCG Resins? MG
LOBBS Posted June 2, 2013 Author Posted June 2, 2013 (edited) Ordering will be through VCG. I just created this thread to show him that the market was here to make it more likely that I could get a top-notch caster to take on the project. I do get a discount on my first order for creating the master but otherwise there is no financial gain for myself. My main goal was to get this out in the wild as I believed it would be a bonus to the modeling community to have it readily available. Edited June 2, 2013 by LOBBS

Cesar Bossolani Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 As I said I want fews sets also, but I live in Brazil. Could you help me Kyle?
Toast Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Brazil you say Cesar! I tell you what, I'll pick up a few extra sets for you free of charge. All you'd have to do is purchase a round trip ticket for me and I'll personally deliver them to you! Deal? ;-p
Cesar Bossolani Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Hahahaha!! Deal Ryan! Could be to Fifa 2014 World Cup and can we do a reservation in Copacabana Palace also? Hahahaha!
LOBBS Posted June 5, 2013 Author Posted June 5, 2013 I got word back from VCG. They do ship worldwide so all the international guys will have no issues.
LOBBS Posted June 6, 2013 Author Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) I've got the package with me and I'll mail it on my lunch break tonight. I just have not been able to slip off to the PO before work. In a recent email with VCG, once they receive the parts it'll take them a couple of days to make the molds. They'll send me pics of the first couple out (a shot of the parts and one assembled). If all looks good, they'll be ready to order. So if all goes well, we're looking at early to mid next week as to when you can start placing orders. Edited June 6, 2013 by LOBBS
mods89 Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) I'd be in for a couple. He should make some long tube headers too. Edited June 10, 2013 by mods89
LOBBS Posted June 10, 2013 Author Posted June 10, 2013 I'd be in for a couple. He should make some long tube headers too. Headers are, more often than not, application specific. Even in scale, where we have some room to fiddle with making things fit, it would be difficult to make a one-size-fits-all set of headers. A set of shorty, street rod style of headers would be doable but incorrect for most applications. There are also plenty of tutorials out there for making headers from solder.
