Title: Phone Number ?
Post by: john2 on August 10, 2022, 06:30:31 AM

 :)  Does anybody have a phone number for this Wes's Model Car Corner that is supposed to market the Whelen modified kit if it ever comes out ?

The web site doesn't give you any way to contact him, except through Facebook, which I do not do.  And when I try to go there, I get nowhere. 

They say you can pre-order, but all I get are dead ends. 

According to Salvino himself, it is now set to be released in the 4th quarter of this year.

Goggle: Wes's Model Car Corner, then select the modified "pre-order" item

"The last model I will buy." I've heard that before, even said it myself a few times.  And just this past weekend I bought the Dan Gurney Lotus, a 62 Plymouth Fury rebuilder, and a 64 Pontiac Bonneville rebuilder with a 64 Impala for the roof. There was a guy at the show this past weekend selling printed Whelen mod kits for the lowly sum of $150, they were beautiful kits, but the work to remove all the excess plastic and the price sent me on my way to look at other vendors.

 :)  lol  I know Rick - I've said it too. 

But this time it's  true.  I'll soon be 83, and I have 12 others that I MIGHT get to. 

Build on, everybody.

You are in better shape that I am.  I am 73 and have more than 200 unbuilt kits, so I need to get busy.
