KK500G2 Bowes Seal Fast

[lance]

A friend asked about doing the Bowes cars, I new some changes would need to be made and was not sure how I would go about it. I honestly would prefer to make a completely new body engineered more like the Etzel Watson but realize there would not be enough potential sales to justify this, here is what I have come up with thus far. The exhaust and injectors needed to swap sides, some engine detail has been added on the injector side, almost there.

Since it can be built as a dirt car, I'm in!

I'm in too

If you release this car, I’ll happily buy one!

[indydog]

I LIKE IT! Count me in!

[raceparke]

I would purchase one kit. I assume the scallops on the nose will be prepainted? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[putt]

Ohhh I am in for a couple of them.

Hi Lance

If you release it I would be in for 1 or 2

The pattern work is done with the exception of finishing the injectors ( need resin to do this ). Speaking of resin, I am currently unable to obtain any as it is on back order and the waiting list is long. I am starting my search for an alternative brand. I will not be doing the dirt track tires as I do not own the Etzel Masters for these and am not sure who does at this point.

Holy supply chain issues. Even in our small corner of the world!
I’m happy with the speedway tire option.

I have the same issue right now, but I will not be searching for new resin because that is a nightmare with testing if it works right and not knowing the long-term ramifications of how the resin will treat a paint jobs or any other chemistry unforeseen issues.
I currently have such a huge inventory of kits and parts that I can survive for a couple more months without much resin left.

I own the masters, you can use them, copy them, and put them in your kit, I don't care.

I sold so many of these tires, I think everyone has multiple sets, already LOL
It's absolutely beyond me what people use them on???

[lance]

Thanks Calvin, I will probably just recommend to anyone wanting to use the dirt tires to contact you for a set.

I modeled a version of the Kurtis years ago to do Pat O'Connor's 58 ride and with the addition of a roll bar, Bobby Grim's 59 ride. The changes made were to enclose the right side of the cockpit and to change the front torsion bars from low bars to high bars.

Count on me buying a few of these beauties!

I actually modified a Sumar kit to make this car. I just switched sides for the intake and exhaust and made a new header and pipe. I'd post photos of it if I knew how to do it.

[Gary Davis]

Dang...would love to see that conversion. Do you have a hosting site, like Fotki, etc?

[bobbyc]

Hi Gary:
I don't, but if you want to give me your email address I can send you photos of the car and tell you what I did. It's a very simple conversion.

[hurtubise56]

Bobby, I sent you a PM about helping you with pics!

[bobbyc]

Thanks, I'll check it out.

I'm relatively new to this forum...
What company do you represent Lance?
