Showcase Miniature out of production trucks

[engineshop]

I contacted Showcase about the Longhaul Semi-Truck

http://www.nscalesupply.com/SCM/SCM-20.html

which is sold out for a long time.
Unfortunately they don't want to re-run that model since pewter got so expensive that they would have to increase the price dramatically to produce them again.

If you are in need of semi-trucks once made by Showcase, please send them an e-mail. I assume if enough people ask for it even if the cost higher, we could get them to change their minds.

Thanks

I had been hoping for the MOW truck to be rerun...

Roland (and BTW your trash containers are among the nicest resin castings I've seen) - have you considered doing some MOW truck rear ends to go with the Atlas MOW Truck Kitbashing Series???

Yeah Rolland ,have you? Since Mocalova never followed through on his.

Catt - Kel did actually make that truck - I managed to get two of them (entire production???)

Unfortunately I lost them somehow...

Thanks Lou on the container
Right now I am trying just to keep up with the first model of the container. I have two more styles I have not even started to cast although I got the mold now. Everything seems to be much easier before I started.
If you have links to pictures, what you like to see as a model, I can check them out to see if it is possible for me to do.

Lou,
It probly was the entire production run.I had a standing order with Chuck that IF they ever showed up I wanted two of them.As far as I know they never came in.

Roland, just like the pics that Lou posted please,would even take a pair in HO too. ;D

CinC makes their pewter vehicles. We may eventually see these under the CinC name.

Anyone know what happened to their resin vehicle line?

They seem to have dissapered. Don't know how or why.
