I wished for a day when Tamiya might offer the TS colors in jars intended for airbrush use. That day has finally arrived. | | | | | Conversion bodies for Ford '32 coupe and Chevy '70 Impala sport coupe | One of the areas where resin casters are most handy is in providing conversion bodies for existing plastic kits.
