I am pleased to announce that both of these kits will be available at the Memorabilia show the day before the 500 at IMS. I will not be taking any orders before then. Quantities will be limited, but these are not limited releases - they will continue to be in production although availability may be sporadic. I do not have a price on the 85C but it will be less than the Wasp. I will have at least 3 options for the 85C at the show (with more to come later). Sullivan's Spin-n-Win Indy winner, Emerson Fittipaldi's Michigan 500 winner and A.J. Foyt's car. Some future releases will be Mears Pocono winner, Al Unser Sr, and Rahal. If there is demand, I will consider road-course/short oval parts. The 85C is brand new from the ground up with more detail than the master I did 20 years ago, and will be a full kit (only some of the parts are pictured below). The gearbox is all new and based on the mid-80s March gearbox - no AMT based gearbox anymore! Also, on another note, I can now accept direct credit card payments without going through PayPal (and at the show I will be set up to accept PayPal and credit cards). If you wish to purchase anything via my website and use a credit card you will need to contact me, but I know some people don't like using PayPal so I am happy to offer this new option.

The March looks great. Thanks for doing this new version. I will see you at the IMS show and I do want one of the Wasps. Jim

It really looks great, Michael. My only regret is not being able to buy one of each! Can I ask what is difference is in the Penske cars at Indy vs Pocono?

The Indy winner has Miller decals and the Pocono winner has Pennzoil decals

Okay, I had wondered if the aero had changed or something that would be different in resin. Thanks!

Pocono winner has Pennzoil decals Planning just 5s on that sheet or 1s and 5s? I have to say that the dash and transmission detail in the above pic is really impressive. Jordan

I saw the transmission on your Shapeways page. Hmmm, I wonder if it would work on an 86 March.
Will there be more space at the memorabilia show this year? It was crowded last year.
I'm in for two. Now, what to do with the two I have?

I saw the transmission on your Shapeways page. Hmmm, I wonder if it would work on an 86 March. It wasn't designed for the 86 March, but it will work if you splice the transmission just right. And it would be correct for an 86C, as I don't believe they changed the gearbox from 85-86. Will there be more space at the memorabilia show this year? It was crowded last year. No. They tried, but for some reason demand for space is at a premium this year ;-) In fact we have less time to set up the night before - we can't even get in until 9pm on Friday night. I'm in for two. Now, what to do with the two I have? Convert them to the KRACO and DSR1 ;-)
