HOBob's Monte Carlo MM/PS. Super clean Orange paint with a hint of metallic. The chassis looks like a stout runner and this body has every detail a guy could want. Nice job Bob! This one showed up today for the test and tune next week.

Here is a new kit I'm working on. It's a 1989 Pontiac Grand Prix Pro Stock. These fit the Tyco short wheel base chassis' (all versions). Incidentally, it has the same wheel base as the T-Jet and A/FX ,etc. chassis and could be adapted to fit those as well. The bare body will also be available at a low price ($4.99 plus shipping) for those wanting a clean starting point for a MM/PS body without having to scour ebay for a suitable donor without damage. As pictured, it is a direct duplicate of the Tyco GP body minus the Window Net. Those that are detail oriented can add a more correct Pro Stock wing of styrene if desired. The Kits as pictured will include a body, hood scoop, twin parachutes, lexan glass and decals. These kits will be in production early next week for anyone interested.

Way cool Troy!!!!! Thanks Sam and Chris. I've got a Summit Racing version in the works too. Also working on a T-bird. Nice Job on the Resin Casting Sam. Looking Good. Just a word of caution though...... the 'Stang looks like Alumilite Resin. You've gotta be careful with that stuff as it doesn't like paint sometimes. Smooth-On resins can be trouble too. I've had that stuff almost catch fire while mixing. It is unpredictable. It actually started smoking and got too hot to hold. I had to throw it in water to keep it from bursting into flames. Seriously. Be careful with that stuff. "The Chavenger" looks like Micro-Mark resin. Best stuff going in my opinion. Not brittle, very predictable and very paintable. Just my 2 Cents..... Troy

I'm putting together a couple bodies for the MM/PS race (better late then never)( I think). What's the best glue to use on the resin parts and what's a good body filler?
Thanks!
