Thanks Joe.
I didn't figure we'd get the 28 or so orders that the poll showed, but I was planning on more than the five we have now. In hopes of getting a few more orders, I'm keeping the order open till the end of the week.

David,
I just noticed that you had come up with a price. Sorry. Too busy to follow the thread. I am sending a check for $45 today it will arrive on 10/2.

When the bodies come, hold mine for paint. I want Diamond Silver Metallic with the number 20 in a white bubble on the door and decklids. Black sail panel and roof.

Sure do, Joe. I have several hours each day that I waste sleeping. Lets see, three of four going to... what event is that? Then first come first serve on the painting. Looks like several people want their cars painted, so that means I'll be able to start working on the 1:1 scale 914 again.

I'm also hoping to create a couple of "art cars" from these to. I know most people want regular single color paint jobs, but with luck someone will like the art car look too... or at lease a more realistic rusty car. Now where did I put those 1:10 scale jack stands...

Hey Dave,

Please hold mine for paint. I want one painted stock (tangerine of course) and the other left plain (for now). No rush at all...

Update:
I just received an email this morning from the vendor in Germany. He shipped the bodies yesterday. They originally didn't have enough to fill the order and was waiting for enough to be made. He said to expect the shipment to arrive here in 20 to 30 days.

I've ordered the shipping boxes and those will be here this week. so I can get the bodies to the post office soon after the shipment arrives in Massachusetts.

Big box arrived from Germany tonight. It was a bit smooshed but a quick inspection showed everything should be alright. I'll dig into it and start boxed up the unpainted orders tomorrow or Friday depending on my work schedule.

The first of the orders have been shipped. If you asked for a blank shell (or two) then the package is on it's way via priority mail (first class for the one international).

I"m starting on the paint orders now. Two have requested their cars by Christmas, so I'm trying to do those first (plus I think they may have paid first too). I need to know how the cars are being painted. If you are waiting for a quote from me then please send me an email... Actually from this point on, I want too keep everything off the boards as far as painting is concerned. My email address is airboston@comcast.net, please drop me an email stating exactly the paint scheme you want and I'll let you know what it'll cost (including 914 family discount).

To be Painted:
Francisco Camacho 2
Gary Gartner 1
Kelly Thorson (echocanyons) 1
Brett Laurila (BKLA) 2
Joe Sharp ?
George Henry 2
Mike Ginter 2

FYI:
Don't forget to remove the clear outer plastic covering before applying your decals. Usually there is a sticker to remind you to do this but it looks like the manufacturer forgot these this time.

I'm working on the first few shells now and must say that I'm not that pleased. The mold lines are barely visible. cutting the wheel openings and front spoiler is difficult and time consuming.
