I received an email from a gentleman in Ontario, Jim Rogers, who is partner in a new model kit company. Their first kit is a 1/25 Oldsmobile 442 in Buddy Baker's 1980 markings. See attached flyer and text of Jim's email below:
---------- Jim Rogers' email --------------------------------
I'm Jim Rogers, half of a new injection molded plastic model kit company Salvinos J R Models and we are releasing our first kit soon. Buddy Baker's 1980 Oldsmobile 442 in 1/25th scale. We are currently signing dealers as well as taking retail pre-orders for our kit and it occurred to us that we should introduce ourselves to IPMS clubs like yours. We are not trying to sell to the clubs directly, we are just hoping that the clubs could share the attached flyer with their NASCAR builder members who then can ask their favorite local shop to carry it. The 128 piece kit will be produced in Southern California, and include Cartograf decals and you can see what our sample looks like on the attached flyer. We would greatly appreciate any help we can get from clubs to make this a success allowing us to make more and other kits.
Thank you for your time,
Jim Rogers
