• Just a gentle nudge to Atlantis to see if the 1/32 gassers are in the tool crib now that errvathing is unpacked.
  • IIRC, years ago The Model King wanted to re-issue those kits but they found that some of the tooling was missing. *NM*
    • I wonder if there would be any chance that the missing bits might have turned up in the mess of tooling that was purchased. Is it a possibility, or am I holding onto false hopes? *NM*
      • I hope they do as I would love to see those kits again. *NM*
    • The difference with Atlantis.......
      • I guess it would rely on the belief there was a really viable 1/32 market. Not my bag, but gotta say that '37 Gasser from the Pyro kit opened my eyes
      • As I heard it, MK wanted to issue three or four of those cars in a set, but one or more could not be found. That, as opposed to parts or tool inserts being lost or damaged *NM*
      • Are they really fixing the Tom Daniels Vette? I thought that tooling was too far modified? How cool that would be! *NM*
        • It wasn't modified much, more importantly parts were taken from it for use in another kit *NM*
          • The question is - do they have the other kits where parts were sent?
            • My guess is that Atlantis will retool the chassis and engine *NM*
          • Vaguely recall a story, that says the TD Vette chassis wound up in the Miami Vice "Daytona Spyder" kit...or was it the Corvette America kit. *PIC*
            • TD chassis went under the Black Rat '65 fastback. I understand that kit has since been revised, but it probably still has that chassis *NM*
