Good Morning Fellows, Just received a VERY good resin 1/24 computer made 1963-1966 Buick/Olds/Pontiac (BOP) 215 CID alloy V-8. Produced by ICEMAN Collections for $16.95 on eBay. Detail is Excellent but has a million casting sprues. Comes with dual SU carb intake and a Tarantula style 4 bbl intake, stock exhausts and three different valve covers. Used Gorilla Glue to assemble. Will send pictures tomorrow, got to get my boat pump off a trailer before someone steals it. Thanx, John

They're very nice, I have 3 of them. I also have a Delage strait 8 from the same guy. It's about a 2 week delivery so good service too.

Sorry Chris I should have thought of that.
Now all I need is another McLaren M1A slot car body 
And if anyone has one of those Delage resin bodies or even an ERA they'd like to part with...............  |

The M1A is very close to the Mclaren Elva right? I do have some AMY ELVA bodies , sitting around , let me look and shoot some pics for you. I know I have One Mclaren Elva in mint , new condition but that isnt going anywhere Chris

Yes it is Chris. I built this from a Tamiya slot body.
It's Heimrath's Ford engined M1A but now that I have an authentic Olds motor I could build Bruce's original Mosport winner - any half decent body shell + windshield would work fine.
Just a thought if you have a spare please let me know.
Paul

This is what you get in the package. The detail is incredible, how do you beat this for $20.00/
Olds 215
Delage with blower
Some disassembly required but beats the hell out of shapeways any day!
