Fantastic Calvin can't wait to see them hit the shelves. Now all we need is someone to make decals for them.

Calvin, I don't think I'm exaggerating when I tell you that you're my hero. I can't wait to get my grubby hands on one of these!

They look good Calvin, thanks for doing these in 1/25. Kind of sad I will need to buy more Honda 500 winners than Chevys but it is what it is.

Question: are the 2016 and 2017 cars the same configuration? Wrencher I believe so. The 2016 configs were frozen for 2017. Were any Honda SS updates done in late 2016? Not that I can recall but maybe someone else has studied all of the bits closely on the Rossi and Sato winners. Jordan |

Thank you to Michael for sending me some TEST decals so I can get a better idea where I'm at with my Honda master. I found a number of places to get adjusted on the body after seeing it in Mclaren orange and seeing decals on it for good eye reference for myself. I always do better when I do these extra steps on my masters. I need that artistic visual feel to get everything just right. Just seeing it in grey primer doesn't give me that "feel" of where I need to go with the curves of the body.   I still need to make a 2016-17 Rear bumper....I currently have only the 2015 at the moment |

You are doing spectacular work on this Calvin. Make sure you keep a spare to use as a base for the 2018 winner in a year or so.

FYI. I hope to have a few kits for sale next week.....and I'll be gone on vacation for the last week of July and I will not have any service what so every in the remote area of Northern Washington....so don't try contacting me because I won't respond. LOL  So if you don't get a kit next week, don't panic...I'll be back in August...unless Bigfoot kidnaps me...then your all screwed, no more Honda kits.  |

Take a kit with you! You may need it for ransom if kidnapped by Bigfoot. He just may be a builder and Honda fan. If he's not, and we never hear from you again, we can start a search for the Honda kit (never did find D.B. Cooper's money, but we all know that when you look for something else, you usually find what you couldn't find before).

Calvin has the kit up on EBay. Paul Erlendson Yes, and on my site, but not at the moment... I'm going out of town for 3 days but will be back to sell a bunch more...I'll let you all know. I just came out with a few kits earlier unannounced to take care of all the people that put in email request wanting one. (Let them have first stab at getting one - Which they all did)(and it wasn't pre-orders, I don't do pre-orders, because I don't like selling something i don't have) Fyi there's always a reason for why I sometimes don't publicly announced a kit right away. |
