Thought this would be a good thread to find help on a special body that you might be looking for. If it is not already made then maybe one of the casters will catch a glimpse of this and start making them. Post your wish lists here as well. [Anyone casting funny cars ( present funny cars )? Like the ones in the John Force set. Thanks, Joe [/size] Not sure if anybody is doing them. Might check with Hairy Canary. |

Would love to see someone make a resin of The'' High and Mighty''.The original Ramchargers. That thing was a wild looking car. It had a high rise intake manifold and zoomie headers to the extreme. I looked for a die cast in a 49 Plymouth business coupe. Couldn't find one. Attachments:

Here are a few i'd love to have cast. 67 GS Mead body  55 Buick Pro Mod, 87 T-Type Regal, and a 67 GTO wagon  2 65 chevelles, I prefer the orange to the cream colored, and a 69 HW super bee and a HW 70 GSX. Bruce aka Traxx cast this but is gone now.   This wagon intrigues me a lot.  |

Hey Joe, I haven't 'given up' on the '55 Buick body. just had to put it on the back burner til I can afford the rubber for a mold.  And..on those Chevelles, the orange HW one IS a much better 'proportioned' body. The cream colored one is an older Maisto body, and the sides are WAYYYY too tall! And, that Buick wagon is a PIA to take apart! I've destroyed more of those than I wanna think about, since the upper part of it is plastic, and can be damaged VERY easily if you aren't aware of that! Somewhere in my boxes of diecast parts (pretty sure the upper part is in one box, the lower in another, etc, etc., LOL) I DO have one of those bodies! Would probly take a week or two of hunting to find it tho! LOL!!! ;D Ron (Bondo)  |

The 55 Buick and the wagon are really nice. I love the 40s and 50s cars!

Would probly take a week or two of hunting to find it tho! LOL!!! ;D Ron (Bondo) Ok Ron, i'll leave that 55 Pro Mod Buick up to you. Very cool body. Think of the 2 tone paint possibilities!!! Now the chevelle's, I had the same thought but here's what i'm thinking. Since the Maisto version has the tall sides and that slammed look to it, I figured it might be easier to get that low and cool look we're going after around here lately. The orange by itself is a better looking model but, probably for a divorced t-jet not a 4 gear. With a 4 gear chassis, I bet it would be sitting way up in the air!!! Your thoughts bondoman?  Thanks for hate info on the wagon, I would hate to waste it as it is my only variation of it. And it's just so cool. So hairycanary, whats your thoughts?? How bout that sweet T-Top T-Type Buick? I have to have some more of those 70 GSX's from Hot Wheels too!!!! I only had bought 8 or 9 from Bruce when he cast them originally. Wish I would have bought more. Please help!!! |
