pukekohe 12-27-2009, 05:24 AM Tony's resin cars are exceptional,detail is 2nd to none,and better still a very resonable price
Montoya1 12-27-2009, 07:01 AM What about weight and durability?
demether 03-21-2010, 03:07 PM BUMP
Where are these magnificent Lemans prototypes ?
706hemi 03-22-2010, 07:19 PM hey demether, i was waiting on the decals to be done for these lil' fellas before i released them, looks like thats unlikely as for the 3 different designs (R90CP, R90CK and R89C) in pro silkscreen print were going to cost me well over $1700 for the minimum 450 order!!!! will probably release these as a body only and body/aluminium wheel option for now, will keep you posted on release date will be soon, by the way, please feel free to use any of my pictures on your French forums, any publicity would be most welcome! many thanks, tony
WaltB 03-22-2010, 07:39 PM Hi Tony, Those cars are sweet! A body/wheel package is something I would definately be interested in also. Do you sell direct to members here? Keep us posted please.
Thanks, Walt
Those are the bees knees!!!

You can say that (the above) again, as in "reciprocation." What goes around should come around, a slight nit for me.
706hemi 08-19-2010, 09:33 AM walt/scj - yep these are up and running, check em' on epay, scj, i'll pm you later re chaparral bodies
dean- just switched to a new formula resin so should should be a lot stronger than my previous castings
scratch- maybe i'm missing what your saying so not entirely sure of this and your other posting, just as tjd says "post when you can" i come here when i can, like a lot of others, i have a LOT of other intrests to, why anyone should have to justify when they come on and post (and who to) is just ridiculous, right now its the middle of the school holidays and i'm here looking after the kids so i've not posted much latley, just because somone has a low score count does'nt mean they have no place here, and if your going down that road, 233 since may 05, says a lot about reciprocation........
take it easy all
and always remeber, this is a "hobby"

Montoya1 08-19-2010, 09:52 AM Tony - we have a race meeting near Norwich airport on the 5th of next month, why not pop along and bring some bodies.
From 2011 the UK six hour will be for long megas so you could get to know the guys and strike up a dialogue in terms of what those who don't want to run R10s and 908s might want to see.
For this year we are using an approved body list so as to move away from the 'glorified road car' syndrome that inevitably became the norm for the 24hr and by extension the 6hr. This will propably stay in place for 2011 even though most of the bodies are not made for the long Mega....yet.
I can send you a copy of this list if you like?
tjd241 08-19-2010, 09:58 AM Hey Tony... Hang some paint on one for us.... Love to see ya fly some colors on these. RE: Your silkscreen decals quote ...wow that IS a big price tag. Don't blame you for going the kit route at all. Personally though, I'm a bigger fan of using the lesser known "cottage" sponsorship decals anyway. :thumbsup::thumbsup:
kiwidave 08-20-2010, 07:30 AM Scratch, I have known Tony longer than anyone else on HT. You upset him you upset me!! Explain or apologize.

Hi Tony
How does one go about aquiring your resin bodies? What others do you make and for what chassis? Thanks!
Best Regards from Daytona Beach, FL.

Montoya1 08-21-2010, 09:44 AM dean, yep please drop me that list, use my direct email if its easier
tony
You can view the current list here:
http://www.bglawns.com/AFX%206%20hour%20list.htm
The color coding applies to 1.5'' wheelbase cars for the most part, but the hope is there will be some stuff in time for 2011, so that the grid is not just 908s and R10s (cool though they are).
I would be interested in running a C100 or LC2 for exampe, so long as the rear arches are large enough for the tallest tyres we run at 'the six'.
PM me if you want to discuss all this in more depth. I dont seem to have an email addy for you for some reason...
scratch 08-22-2010, 05:13 PM Hi,
Some of you misconstrued my post, about reciprocation. As my thread implies, it is just nice to see guys support other guys and their rides.
Reciprocation is a one word term for the above. I sometimes chastise myself (a little) when I miss someone's effort. Which will happen here, since most of you are so prolific.
Will take some time getting used to the long threads. A neat and innovative approach, kinda like a novel. But still confuzzes me a little, which is not hard to do.
No slight intended, far from it, I flat don't do that. If anything ... I encourage guys to build and show their rides. As my thread intones, it doesn't matter one's skill level. What matters is nerve to show one's wares for all to see.
Hope this clears up the misconception. You'll find me - once you know me more - to try and encourage more guys to show more rides, buildings, people they make up ... whatever it is they create.

706hemi 08-24-2010, 06:56 PM hey jas
i'm glad i misread it then, i think the last thing we needed right now is more unrest in the slot neighbourhood! please disregard my coments
larry an tjd, these photos are for you, finally got them uploaded to photobucket, the finish on the car is not great, it was done with some of the earlier of pattos silkscreen decals which were really poor, i have one some of my own decals since but yet to try them out, patto has since informed me though he has sorted the "curling" problem the earlier decals suffered from
hope you enjoy the pictures anyways

resinmonger 08-24-2010, 07:00 PM Tony, that Nissan is awesome. If I didn't know better, I'd think it was a high quality build up of the old Starter or Provence Moulage 1:43 kits. (I used to traffic in those.) Just one more example of your incredible talent. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
tjd241 08-25-2010, 02:15 PM Nice Tony... Very stealthy... Matter of fact looks like it would be lethal if were to leave the slot ! ! :thumbsup::thumbsup:
Montoya1 08-25-2010, 02:18 PM Can we see a piccy from underneath please?
What does the body weight?
Rolls 08-26-2010, 01:57 AM Wow Tony. An absolute stunner!!
kiwidave 08-26-2010, 02:22 AM Awesome race car Tony. Vacuum formed headlights???
