Got my package today. Really nice castings as always.

Really would like to see some Cherokee, Econnoline, Lincolns and Caddys from the 80's.

I totally missed the street sweeper in the other thread. 

Looks like I will need to make another order.

Man, those things haven't changed in decades. We have two in Norwood and dammed if they don't look exactly like that model.

The street sweeper is temporarily unavailable.  I need to make some modifications to it in order to make it easier to cast.  I'm trying to decide if I should make the front wheels separate or not as well.

[Rasputen]

I now have a GM TDH-5301 "Fishbowl" bus available.  Similar to the other bus kits, it consists of a
one piece hollow body, a chassis/interior, and separate wheel/tire assemblies as shown.
These are $6.00 each.



Here it is shown with the wheels glued in place.  At a scale 40 feet long, this is a pretty large vehicle:

Hmmm, looks like I will be placing an order in a couple weeks (or whenever the SS check shows up).Have you still got some of the F-850 cabs available and how's the street sweeper coming?

I like that bus,it really is to old for my era but hey it's a small Michigan city.

[Rasputen]

I've had some health problems so the Street Sweeper is still not available.  I should be able to make some progress on it soon.  The F850 conversion kits are still available.  I have about eight left as the mold for those is worn out too.

[Catt]

Brian, just sent you a PM about the F-850 and the fishbowl.Any chance of a 1960 version of that Ford? It seems the company who owners claim to be N scalers are not interested in doing theirs in N scale.

Oh yeah,while I'm thinking about be sure to keep me on the list for that street sweeper when you get the chance to fix or make the mold.

[Rasputen]

If they have no interest in making one, I will do it.   I just don't want to duplicate their efforts on it.   I haven't even seen one in person yet - hopefully it is a respectful model.  Their ads always seemed a little vague as to the scale(s) when they were announced.

[Catt]

The HO version is very nice and they have a fair assortment all the way from F-100s on up.

[Catt]

Got my F-850 cab and two fishbowl buses from Brian today.I think he just keeps getting better and better with each no release. 

[Catt]

A half hour with the F-850 and ATLAS's Ford LN-9.Yeah, I know the picture sucks but I thought I would toss this out to show the cab with the ATLAS chassis.I'm not really sure modifying the ATLAS chassis was worth it but it's to late now.

All the vehicles from It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.  GO!

Brian,


Any chance of getting a 1965ish International pick up?  Preferably a crew cab?

Now for years I have been wanting to add a small workshop to one of my country towns on the SFRSD and full it with hot rods. 34, 3 and 5 widow ford coupes, cut down rods without guards, a T bucket and all with motors. etc.
They used to be available by Jordan I think in HO but not N to my knowledge.
Just a wish.
Rod.
