It's now a long time I've found Daniel Abarth Design (http://www.geocities.com/abarth3562000/AirCool.html)
They have on their website a few 1/24 resin bodies, essentialy for Vw.

Resin parts (http://www.geocities.com/abarth3562000/Scale24Resin.html)
For a Vw lover as I am, they are very interesting. But there are no prices on the site, no info to order. Just an address and an email.
I've already sent several emails, from different providers and places (home, work, ...) but I never get an answer or a read receipt. I've sent my last email 2 weeks ago and I'm still waiting the answer ( I've written all my emails in english, maybe that's the problem)
I've searched for a phone number and have found the uruguayian yellow pages (www.guiatelefonica.com.uy), but no results for the searches I did.
So, I've thought of sending a letter in spanish but I don't speak spanish.
So, here comes the part where I need your help, is there anyone here who could send them an email in spanish or write them a letter asking how to order those bodies. abarth356@hotmail.com
Or, is there a Af-member from Uruguay around ???
Any other idea is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Xav

Those are transkits made by Guido Fieuw of Scale Kraft, located in South Africa.
They fit PERFECTLY onto the Hasegawa kit chassis. I have the first one pictured, the 1952 VW Stoll and it is an amazingly smooth resin item. I got mine from Island Collectibles here in the US ( http://www.islandcollectibles.net/ ). They are more expensive than they used to be, though. The Stoll is now $80, the Hebmuller convert is $95, the Beutler Station Wagon $65 and a 1966 Karmann 5 seat cabriolet goes for $75. Also check the Scale Kraft site ( http://www.scalekraft.co.za/ )

Thanks soooo much for the info :thumbsup:
I was desesperate to find them and you gave me the producer. It's perfect :grinyes:
Just have to save money now, if I want all of them I need to find around $300 :eek: but, hey they are not common models, they certainly worth the price.
Thanks again.
