20251121 Jimmy Flintstone’s Resin Bodies

I’ve known about the existence of resin car bodies since the turn of the Century. And the only one Company that does such beautiful work was Jimmy Flintstone. It was a very simple concept of getting his product and then use a matching chassis from a donor kits, coming from AMT, Moebius or even Lindberg kits to complete the model.

Over the decades, I find myself visiting his Website every now and then, and wished I had the required donor kits to support those beautiful bodies. And stupidly, I believe that was the only solution. Therefore , as the years go by, these donor kits became a rarity and sometimes, the asking price (especially the shipping) is just not worth it due to the current Tariff War.

Those Beautiful Car Bodies

Right now, I’ll just post these for the time being and I’ll update the models and their donor kits when I have the time

One of this was the NB326 Salt Flat Custom Racer, which screams to me. The way I see it, the body could be a nice Speeding car with twin rockets or another TAS Batmobile. Then again, something must be done to improve on the front grills.
As the Website suggested, this was the donor car that would fit perfectly with that resin body. Not knowing further about resin car bodies other than it exists, I think I can wing it with just a big sheet of plastic card and some wheels.
