Some assembly required.
I'm sure it could be done in 40 hours, right?
So is he going to continue making bodies or only do completed turnkeys or what?

All these years I thought it was a 40 year build time.

Perhaps it will be if we don't get that car of yours either built up in the barn in Baker or off to Merklin. Make the dream come true!
Curiouser and curiouser.
Does this mean he doesn't intend to build Super Widebodies? Otherwise, why would he be selling it?
Who owns the mold? Perhaps that source has "disappeared" ?
VS mold source was in Mexico
Maybe they have altered the mold or it's flashed from a near worn out mold and not up to standards. Those mold have a distinct life. When I was cutting for lights and such on my CMC - instructions said "see scribe" marks which were supposedly small indents or marks in the body. Maybe the first 50 out of the mold but non were on mine.
I read the ad and it didn't say VS was getting out of the Super widebody biz, but that they would no longer sell JUST the bodies anymore.
