Racing43 Distributors in the US?

Quick question hopefully. Are there any current distributors for Racing43 stateside?
I checked their site and for the two the have listed both sites are down, I tried e-mailing one of them and got a dns error.

The other site was scaleracecars.com, I found a really old thread on them here, are they still open?

I need to get a couple sets of replacement decals and would prefer somewhere besides my usual source (ebay).

Yes decals probably wouldn't be very expensive to get from overseas, but I'm thinking long term as they have quite a few kits I want to get as well and the last time I ordered kits for Europe it cost me an arm and a leg, the exchange rate doesn't really help either.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Racing43 Distributors in the US?

Hi,
I've just met someone from Italy last weekend who proposed me to get Racing43 kits and decals with discounted prices...
He is also able to get most of italian brands decals and kits.
I have many Racing43 decals myself, so feel free to PM me your request, I'll see if I have somthing and if not a common purchase may be possible.
I can send you a copy of his email with the kits and decals lists if you want, let me your email address in PM.

Forty-three kits and parts are scarce in the U.S., that's for sure.

Try Surf City Models. They work with a lot of European suppliers. Their web page has been a work in progress for several years, but you can email them at jake@surfcityhobbies.com.

Good luck!
