Are you wanting to cast it yourself or have it cast?

Competition Resins does a pro stock version I believe it is a modified resin of the original Johan kit.
Probably be cheaper than an original kit.

Sorry, I misread the original post, thought you were looking for the kit, not to have it cast

If you are getting one cast, I would be interested in getting one as well.

I would be interested in a Hornet. Mr. Reffner is a fine gentleman. What scale? if it worked with the ASA model kit that would be great.

the Hornet body is a 1/25th scale.
I never thought of the ASA kit for a chassis donor. i have tried the Javelin on
The Chrysler kit car Chassis and it will need a little work.

My Javelin ASA body I have mastered fits the MPC short track kits like the GTO etc. That kit makes a good 70's era ASA car.

I am sure a resin caster is or was doing a Hornet Short Track car I have seen several Bobby Allison Hornets using that body I know there are differences between the 2 cars as there was between any 2 cars built by different people back in the day

Hey Dave...is that a resin piece? Are you selling that body by chance?

I have a finished master. The guy that did my resin casting for all my Penngwen kits has stopped casting. So until I find someone....I can't sell any.
