Are they still in business? I'm looking for a 70 GTX, and I think they are the only casters doing that. Is there anyone else? A 70 Roadrunner would be nice as well. I know there are 1/24 kits out there, but I only want one in 1/25 scale

I think they are and their sight is active. I bought a 69 Barracuda from them a couple years ago. I received it quickly and it is great quality.

take the GTX emblems off the GTX and you've gotta RoadRunner!. I have Kenny's 70 GTX, and his 71 Scamp. Both are EXCELLENT castings.( you can get a JoHan RR grille from the modelhaus.)

May I suggest . Go to <rocketfin.com> , at the bottom of the page click "Model Car Links" . All resin and aftermarket suppliers are listed . All apphabetcal . I have his GTX Body , Removed the 'GTX' emblens , add a RR Grille and decals = Road Runner . Bucket seats are an Option on the '70 RR . I am looking for the Stock Interior for a 1/25 Scale Road Runner , GTX or Superbird . I have the dashboard . Thanx ..

John, nobody makes a standard interior for the 70 JoHan Roadrunner. Models By Hart, Vaughn Hart, sells a 69 bench seat interior for BOTH the JoHan 69 Roadrunner, AND AMT/ERTL Roadrunner. If you can get ANOTHER rear seat from a JoHan Roadrunner(I lucked out and found a few of them at the local toy show.)then you can make a front bench seat. I've done it twice now. It's not hard at all.REMEMBER the color of the Accent stripe on the front seat UNLESS it was a BLACK interior, had a contrasting color. I did mine in silver grey, as it was on the cars I modeled.

The Bandit Resins '70 GTX is nice, I have it in my resin collection...for a 1/25th '70 Road Runner, I got the R&R '70 RR a couple of years ago, a resin repro of the vintage Johan kit, I assume.

I've emailed bandit resins a couple times over the last few weeks to order some parts, with no response. Does anyone know if bandit is still up and running?

Kenny is most likely very busy getting wraps and decals ready for local racers and the start of racing season. Bandit Resins is a side business for him and sometimes the demands of it are more than he wants. I spoke with him at a show awhile back and between the graphics business and resin casting, it doesn't leave a lot of time for model building and enjoyment of the hobby.
