Big Donkey Resin Sportsman / Modified - Tjet HO bodies!

[TuscoTodd]

For those that may not know, Larry at Big Donkey Resins is now offering Sportsman / Modified HO bodies!
The bodies are not listed on the site yet, however below is a list of the bodies currently being offered.



A group of use went in on an order picking up examples of a number of the bodies and I thought it would be handy for those that are interested to have a reference until such time as his website is updated.

The bodies shown are "as received" - no flashing removed etc.

#2 - 36 Chevy 5 window Coupe






#11 - 62 Chevy II Modified






#12 - Gremlin Modified






#13 - Pinto Modified






#15 - 60 Valiant Modified

#18 - IMCA Modified






#19 - Whelen Modified






#20 - Dirt Late Model






#22 - Malibu Modified






#24 - 57 Chevy Modified

Hope you guys find this handy (I know I had to do some hunting to figure out what some of the items on the list looked like!)

These were the bodies that were originally sold by Resin Dude, Big Donkey did the molds and is now selling those bodies. There were pictures of all of the bodies on the Resin Dude site, but that is now gone.

Larry originally made the molds for the Resin Dude bodies.
I purchases a dozen bodies from Larry last fall. Great to see theses great bodies again.

I recently got 20 of the Whelen modified bodies for a North Coast H.O. series. Sitting on a JL/TJ style chassis with XT style rear wheels & tires on all 4 corners. (fronts are in the center upper hole). Gets the look a little more accurate.
Very happy with the bodies.

HOCOC has a class for Whelen Modifieds that uses the Aurora Magnatraction or JL/AW X-Reaction chassis with the ears cut off.



Here is one that I cut down.

Rich, you and HOCOC make the best looking modifieds, Whelen or vintage, and fairgrounds cars I've seen.

One of the guys in the club has done a couple of scratchbuilt Whelen bodies, here is one of those.

For the next racing season we are going to have a new class for cars that use a stock AFX 1.7 inch Mega G+ chassis. The bodies will be 3D Printed Whelen and SK Modified ones from MTS 3D Hobbies.

[RichD]

Here is the SK Modified body.

This is good news to HO circle track racers, for sure. All who knew Rick miss him and his great personality. It's great to see that his creativeness is being preserved for us all to continue enjoying in the hobby. I was a vendor at his Toy Car Extravaganza shows at the Holiday Inn, Morgantown, PA every December. Rick, his wife Felicia and the rest of his family and crew took good care of all of us for the entire weekend. There was so much to see and buy at those shows, and with 100+ vendor tables, I wished I had more time and money to spend while I was there! RIP, Rick.

Thanks for posting the news and all the photos. -- Ernie :>)
