Cars; missing wheels and suspension

Yes. Write a letter to Testors requesting the replacement parts.

I'm not surprised; that kit was a prime target for theft of its wheels and tires. I've got a set I can spare - contact me direct to work out the details.

What he said. Was the kit opened? If so, might be why it was on the clearance table. I built that kit when it first came out, the rear tires split at the seam while sitting on my shelf. I wrote them and they sent some.....no charge. I have noticed that one has split again, same place, so I'm guessing that it has to do with there compound in the tire or how it was made. Since yours are missing, there might be a charge. If the even still have them. Mike

likes to do and I would like to

Like Martin said, ask Testors. Last year I got a box of stuff from another lhs customer that had the Italeri 1/72 F-100D. When I opened it up it had two A trees, no B tree. Being OOP for some time I just knew I wouldn't be able to get at least one B tree but I emailed Testors anyway.

About 10 days later a box showed up in the mail, from Testors. It was another Italeri F-100D box with the parts I needed plus what ever was left from previous vulturing. Testors rocks on customer service. Are you listening RC2????

Yeah, send Testors an email. They are very good about replacement parts. I don't see how they stay in business. The Aluma Coupe is an old kit, though.

Thanks for the info and addresses. I'll try Testors first and if they say no, I may give AL a call.

Geez. Not you too! :(

Well Al, I didn't want to deprive you of the parts if I can get them from Testors. After all, it was their kit to begin with and perhaps the wheels weren't packed. But I truly thank you for the offer.

That's no problem - I've got at least four or five sets of those wheels and tires. The problem was that you posted my complete message headers, including my actual email address... :(

Oops! Really sorry about that. I didn't notice. Better adjust my type size.

You just did it again...
