Epitome:

Any idea if I can purchase parts for these 1:18 cars? I have a 1:18 scale 1987 grey "T" (from a few years back) that has the blackout trim. I want to customize it to look like my grey 1987 Turbo "Limited". I even have a real grey vinyl roof swatch to use for the landau roof on the model). What I need is any of the parts that have the chrome trim (glass, headlight/taillight trims and anything else that is chrome, to replace the blackout trim. Just curious if there was any parts left over from the last T's being offered now (that have chrome parts).


Please let me know if this is possible. Thanks,

Steve Z:)
 
The only extra parts I will be getting from the new D84s will be side mirrors, and hood ornaments, just in case there is a need. GMP won't have any chrome trim parts available for you and if you bought a chrome trimmed car to take the parts from they would be difficult to remove. I appreciate your willingness to build it yourself though, so good luck :)
 
I was able to remove the blackout trim pieces on my grey T with some care but it was do-able. I was hoping there would be a chance to get replacement parts with the chrome trim detail but I guess Ill just have to paint/chrome them myself (or use aircraft chrome speed tape or modeling chrome foil).

Here is some pics of my 1:1 scale grey Limited, just in case you wanted to see pics of what I am trying to accomplish in 1:18 scale: http://www.turbobuick.com/forums/tu...leeper-fans-here-my-wolf-sheeps-clothing.html

I wish there was a "Limited" 1:18 scale Buick offered...........
 
should be released very soon

While it will be nice to see the final pair of cars for the set of 4. Maybe next week???
 
They are almost here, but not yet, so definitely not next week. I will post here when we are getting ready to ship them. :)
 
GMP tells me they should have them either tomorrow or the beginning of the week. Figure another week for them to get here and then 1-2 weeks for us to ship.

Keep us posted on shipping. What seems to be holding up the process? Haven't had a Christmas present ever drag out this long before.
 
The process is not held up, we just can't do anything until they get here :)
 
I am working on billing right now. We will have them on Tuesday or Wednesday. :)
