Got 8, count'em, EIGHT, Boss Bodies on their way toward good ol' Oklahoma. I doubt the Carrera CoT cars will survive very long after they arrive.
Done went and bought:
2 69 Nova Bodies
1 69 Camero Body
1 76 Nova Body
2 78 Camero Bodies
2 85 Buick Regal Bodies
Now I've got to go shopping for some decals....

Boss bodies are cool...but I gotta tell ya, as much of a bomber guy I am, those 85 Boo-ickes are just plain tops.

Maybe we can prevail on the Boss Boys to consider producing a '64 Chevelle... maybe some more of the mid-80s "Monte Carlo" type GM stuff... a
'56 Ford to run against the '55 Chevy... and...

The 64 Chevelle would be tough. We have two models coming out to run against the 55 Chevy... and neither is a Ford. We believe the mid'80's Monte
Carlo is doable. Thanks for your order!

Boy, Steve, shows you how much I know about vac bodies. I thought the slab surfaces/lack of contours of the '64 Chevelle would lend itself well to vac
forming. Learn sumpin' new everyday!
Ah HAH! Something in the works to run against the 55 Chevy... but it AIN'T a Furd??? Hmmmmm..... 80's Monte: That'd be cool! Andre |

The 64 Chevelle would be an easy shape to work with. Sadly, we are not artists. We plagiarize existing examples of 1/32 scale cars. We do make some
modifications to facilitate molding (that explains the Packard taillights on our 55 Chevy), and sculpt the bases to cut down on creasing/stretch, but we
can't create a new car from scratch. If you know someone who has this skill, we'd like to talk to them. There are several cars that we'd be
interested in that were never done in 1/32 scale. Having said that, we do have a 66 Chevelle to post as soon as the prototype is back from being painted.
