How to go nuts in one easy lesson! These are amazing. I guess I can give up my pitiful attempts at resin casing. Thanks.

Cool! What scale is the Buick? 1/25 for the AMT Lolas. |

Any hope of 1/20 scale version?

That will depend entirely on how the 1/25 version does.

I went through Michael's catalog and there are several 88/89 Buick decal offerings already.

Really cool to see this trail blazing work.
About how many hours have gone into the individual designs? I assume the Buick engine took longer than the indy tires.
Also, is there some issue with printing in different scales? I can understand cost considerations, but would the master have to be changed in any way?
Thanks.

All designs are drawn to maximize detail at the scale printed. So resizing usually involves a new design to take advantage of the limits - or limitations - of the 3d printer. If you are asking about modifying the Buick for the Tamiya Lola, it is far more complicated than just resizing.

I just talked to Lance and it looks like I'll be able to make the Buick available for $15, and the Ford-to-Chevy conversion for the Tamiya Lola T9300 for $12.00 (the Buick comes with exhaust pipes). Would anyone be interested if I set up a pre-order deposit page on my website? I don't know how many will be produced, so a deposit will insure that your need will be covered.

I'd sign up for a couple if you did that.

A 1/20 Chevy C conversion? Cool! Have you shown us that one Michael? Seems you already have about 1/2 of the '93 Lola Chevy C options covered with the Bud King team offering and Teo's Pennzoil decals.
Wouldn't mind picking up both of those engine conversions.
