Actually the Cop car and the other 2 painted bodies are still there. You only missed the 'raw' ones. Still tryin to come up with some 'masters' for Mopars, Dusted. But I will have a few Mopars just not sure when yet. Ron (Bondo)

If I decide to use a T-Jet is there someplace I can buy mounting posts? Dusted I use 5/32 or 3/16" solid plastic rod by Evergreen you can get at any hobby shop. I drill a 1/16 hole about 1/2" into the center of the rod. Then I use a self tapping screw to cut the threads into the rod. The screws from some of the AW cars work well for this, look for the ones with a small cut into the threads near the tip. I screw them to the chassis next, and cut them an 1/8" to a 1/4" above the gear plate ( depends on the body you are using ) you can trim them a little at a time till the body sits where you want on the chassis. Then use 5 min. epoxy to glue the body on, this will give you plenty of time to position the body just right. Last wait a couple of hours before trying to unscrew the body, so the epoxy has plenty of time to set. I usally go back and add a little more epoxy around the base of the post for extra strength.

Yep. That's how I would do it too. ;D BTW..Plastruct rod works too, also available at some hobby shops (ours doesn't carry Evergreen sheet plastic OR rods and tubing But they do carry Plastruct) Dusted, that painted Tbird you have the bid on looks REAL nice sitting on a Tjet . Since that is a LifeLike body, it is wider and covers the rear tires almost completely (depending on the tires you use..but you CAN run wider tires and still 'tuck' them in ). The unfinished bodies are a little wider than most too. Ron (Bondo)

And I forgot to mention... Watch for a NEW body from me real soon. 1993 Camaro..SUPER LIGHT body. Comes out of the mold at about 3.5 grams. Most bodies are 4 to 5 grams 'out of the mold'. Will make a GREAT MMPS body! (or for that matter ANY drag car... Class OR bracket!) Ron (Bondo)
