OK. There appears to be enough interest in these 1/24 scale lexan 914 bodies from people that did not get them to possibly put together another order. Here's the deal:

- We need a bare minimum of 25 bodies to go forward with this - doesn't matter which style (stock or GT)
- It will take about 8 to 10 weeks to get them, so expect them to come in shortly after Christmas
- Cost each will be $14.50 (slightly higher than before because exchange rate has gotten worse)
- Shipping will be $4.00 for any quantity (USPS priority mail).

If you want in, SIGN UP HERE with quantity and style you want. If we hit 25 or more, then I will collect money (paypal or check), and place the order.If you want in, see payment instructions below...


A bunch of people have already asked to be on a waiting list. I'm ignoring that list. Please sign up here.If you want in, see payment instructions below...

If you don't know what I'm talking about, read up on it in this thread:

1/24 914 body thread

To answer your questions about the source in advance. The bodies are made by a guy in Germany who makes slot car bodies and parts. He does not sell his products to any distributors, so they are only available direct from him. Communication is difficult and slow because he doesn't do e-mail, and of course the language difference. I kept the first order relatively small because I didn't know what I would get (if anything). But everything worked out well and quality was good, so I am happy to pursue this additional order so that anyone who wants one can get one (or how ever many you want).

PAYMENT INFORMATION:

ORDER IS CLOSED:


Last day to sign up for bodies was 11/21. I am taking no further orders. The order with the manufacturer is in process.

CLICK HERE FOR PAYMENT STATUS




OK. Clearly there is enough interest to go forward with this order. No need for anyone to continue to respond to this thread about interest.

So now what I need is for everyone to start paying up front. If you have signed up on this list to get some bodies, it means nothing unless I get payment.

Easiest way is to paypal the money to: demick@yahoo.com
$14.50 per body + $4.00 shipping (single $4 shipping charge no matter how many bodies you order).
Be sure to specify the number and type of body (stock or GT) you are buying in the paypal instructions.

If you prefer to send a check, that is fine - please e-mail me at demick@yahoo.com

Please be advised that I will be unavailable from an e-mail point of view from 11/4 to 11/17. You may continue to make payments through that time period but the spreadsheet will not be updated and I will not be available for questions. Once I return, I will provide an update and get the bodies on order. Current cut-off date for getting in on this order is 11/21.

note: image below shows painted bodies with wheels, etc. Bodies come unpainted with no wheels, decals, etc. See original thread which shows a picture of how the bodies come.
