General Discussion / "Made Expressly For" Glovebox Dragon Emblem

« on: November 07, 2015, 01:44:22 PM »

In the process of securing a replacement I had a mold made that can provide wax forms for casting emblems. The Fund opines there is not enough demand to get involved in stocking,etc. If I get a number of inquiries I can establish a cost of casting X amount of basic items. Plating your responsibility. Open to discussing sale of the die and a wax proto. #8434.

Manufacturing Fund Forum / Reproduction Items Wanted Survey

« on: April 03, 2015, 02:46:49 PM »

The quest for orphan car parts is certainly challenging, and the K-F  assortment of old iron is in the mix. I suggest the Club undertake an (annual?) en mass survey to ascertain the extent/type/yr/model/etc. needs of the K-F ownership....and would actually be purchased! This might prompt the Fund or a vendor/member to launch. Concomitantly it might also loosen the hoarder grip on the scads of "just might need" parts rat-holed away waiting for the estate yard sale giveaway by clueless relatives. A bulletin entry that suggests a reasonable asking price for typical parts would also help to retard the  prevalent creeping inflation and gouging in the hobby world.
