  1. That looks like a job for some 5 minute epoxy to me.
  2. Love the GT40, one of my all time favorite cars!!
  3. Indeed he was! Must be catching up on his likes!
  4. The only thing I would say is that I have had few bad experiences putting lacquer spray clear over lacquer paint (especially primer) that has fully cured. It sometimes causes the first coat to soften and crinkle up. I'd test it on something else first. If your clear flat is acrylic, you're probably ok.
  5. I have not added those to the catalog yet, though I believe I have located the molds in the stash. The problem is that I have not found the masters, so I need to cast some new parts in the existing molds to assess if the molds are still good. I just haven't done it because those parts are BIG and resin is not cheap. If you are interested, I'll make a point of doing that in next couple of weeks. Drop me an email at bnbresindesign@gmail.com so we can stay in contact. Tim
  6. Man, I gotta disagree with you there buddy! I hate molded in seat belts. But each to his own, so let's have every seat offered with or without belts!!!
  7. This a pretty good source for the ribbon colors, Eli. There are lots of others that may be even better. https://www.pngkey.com/detail/u2e6u2t4t4e6r5a9_usaf-medals-and-ribbons-order-of-precedence-us/ Tim
  8. Camera would be my guess as well.
  9. Drop me an email and I'll see if I can find out for you. bnbresindesign@gmail.com.
  10. Thanks for looking! I tried all the old email addresses from GMF, including Mark's, and they are long defunct. I do hope Tim is still kicking somewhere, though! Maybe Mark can be tracked down, but I don't even know his last name. I even went as far as messaging some of Tim's friends on FB, with no responses. If I could at least find out if he's living or not, I would know whether to keep trying or give up. I've already spoken to Jerry, and he has given his blessing, but as he no longer has the legal rights to those kits, I don't feel right reproducing any of that stuff without Tim's ok. T
  11. I thought that's what Texas people looked like!
  12. I believe he used to live in Alfreton. Beyond that, I know next to nothing. I'm hoping some of the Telford crowd might have met him before and be able to track him down. Even Jerry Rutman doesn't know how to contact him anymore.
  13. It would be really cool if one of our members in the UK could help me find him, as it's pretty tough to do it from the US.
  14. Wow, that is NICE! Excellent weathering and paint. Now you just need to build a radar equipped version! (hint, hint) Tim
  15. Trust me, John, I've put a LOT of time into trying to track down Tim Skelton to ask that very thing. I had hoped to acquire the rights to the Rutman stuff he sold, but I just can't find the guy. Tim
  16. It's finally ready! Here is a link to the instructions, please email me if you want one at bnbresindesign@gmail.com. Cost is 22 USD plus shipping. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1M9pMx27GIi-XLGdyY2gBcb9uO1UG0zHs/view?usp=sharing Please allow a week or so for me to get everything cast and shipped (some of these parts are very tough to do!).

  17. I've spoken to John about them already. In fact, he's the reason I added the extra tie-down channel. I think he want something bigger (wider) than that, though. unfortunately, these do not lend themselves to extension in the other direction very well.
