I just couldn't let the day go by without contacting you to let you know my order arrived.
The parts are "TOTALLY OUTSTANDING" the ACCURACY is unbelievable.
The Manifolds, Injectors
and the "HEMI" valve covers are beyond words.
Everything is "PERFECTION" to say the least. Looking forward to showing the guys the parts at our next meeting.
KEEP UP THE OUTSTANDING WORK !

Hello Scott, I received my parts from you yesterday. As usual, the quality was beyond expectation. You and your guys always seem to have a handle on the things that "nostalgia" builders as myself have been looking for, for so long. Case in point, those gorgeous 9" Cheater Slicks, and finally a decent set of Drag 500 slicks for the early pro stock cars. I was totally blown away by the '67/'68 Cuda FC body shell. It is a perfect match for the Mazmanian car and finally I can get to work on this kit. The Chevy fuel injection set up also impressed me so much, that I have ordered 2 more. Once again, thanks for making this old modeler happy. Have a great day and chat with you later. Regards, Daryl Tremblay

 

I just opened the box, You outdid yourself on this one! The '67/'68 Barracuda funny car body is the sweetest resin body I have ever laid my hands on! Please feel free to use that quote as a testimonial. We're supposed to get 10 inches of snow tomorrow and I'll be trapped inside my house with this body and my modified donor klt and decals. What better way to spend a snowstorm.
Thanks, Ed Fortuna

I wanted to drop you a quick line to say thanx! This was my first order with Speed City and I have to say the quality is first rate, as good as I've seen, and the order fill was lightning fast. The new Enderle injectors will add a new dimension to my dragsters. I'm glad you have at last released them.
It's what prompted my first order with you - but it won't be may last!
Thanks again, Bernard Kron

Hi Scott... Just wanted to let you know I got my parts. Fantastic ! The quality is superb.
It’s the little stuff like these parts that let me build to the level I demand for myself.
Thanks again... Dave DeCoster


Hi, Just dropping you a note to tell you that I got the bodies and they are fantastic!
The guys at the model club told me you were good and I am glad I listened to them. Your bodies are exceptional!
I am more than pleased. Thank you, Joseph J. Bryan

Thanks Joesph, We try to do our best and really keep the modeler in mind when creating our products.
As I too am a model builder, and want to build the models I create, so there done right the first time !
Can we use your last email in our testimonials page ?

Yes, you may. I believe that when someone does a good job others should know about it. In this day and age when there are many rip-offs and low quality workmanship it is good to know that there are people like you who do exceptional work. For anyone out there who is thinking of buying bodies from this site, rest assured that you are getting the best.
Joseph J. Bryan



G'day, Just wanted to let you know that the 65 Plymouth Sedan I ordered arrived today.
I had looked at your products on the website it was apparent that you put alot of work into producing high quality products.
Having said that, I was VERY happy when I opened the box. I have bought resin bodies from different manufacturers both here in Australia and from the USA and I have to say this is the best, sharpest, cleanest body I have ever purchased. I am sure this body will build up into an excellent model and once it is complete I will be ordering other kits from your range. Keep up the great work.
Cheers,
Matt Collins

Just a quick note to say thank you for promoting the hobby of nostalgia drag model cars.
Your resin bodies and parts are the finest..... if not the best!
Your efforts are grand and I really appreciate it. Please keep up the good work.
Thanks again. Jim Polli

WOWWWWW! This is my first Speed City order (Tires, Cragars, AFX set) and I knew it would be great. But I was wrong. The stuff us better than great. These are the best tires I've ever seen, head and shoulders above everyone else's, including Comp.Resin's. Can't wait to start ordering your bodies. Again, thanks for all you do. Mike Mueller

Hello ! I just wished to let you know that I have received my Tommy Ivo's Riviera Wagon Master today. The casting is incredibly clean & smooth (well worth the price), & your service was second to none (fast, friendly & reliable). Please publish those comments in your "testimonials" section. Thank you again.
Bertrand JOSEPH (a happy French buyer)

Just dropping you a line to say that I received my 65 Gene Snow Dart and as usual, the quality was top notch. Everything fit to a “T”, mind you, with your company I wouldn’t expect anything less. Oh, and by the way, those new rubber racing slicks that you folks have produced are totally awesome, especially the Good Year brand. They definitely fill a void in the model world that was sorely needed. Good job! I find myself using these on more than just early AFX cars, they make great slicks for all sorts of classes of racing as one can sand off the sidewall detail if necessary and update them with Shabo dry transfers for more modern cars. I will be ordering more. Anyway, have a great day and talk to you soon. Regards, Daryl Tremblay

Received my order in record time and was really happy with the quality and detail !
"Wrinkle Walls Slicks" were just what I needed and I showed them around at our meeting and gave them rave reviews in our club newsletter.
Please feel free to use my comments on your site. If I'm having to buy a resin body to do a build, it would make since to get the best.
Thanks, Ron Minton

Hello, I just received the long nose mustang , , holy $#!T man, I have honestly never seen resin items this good,
and i have bought from Good Stuff , Jimmy Flintstone , and ALL the others !
You have made a new and repeat customer out of me, I will make another purchase real soon, thank you again , Frankie


Hello Scott, Just dropping a quick line to let you know the 65 Dodge Coronet AFX I ordered arrived up here safe and sound. In one word:
WOW!!!
Its beautiful!! You nailed it! It looks like a styrene kit,and cleans up in minutes.I can even read the emblem on the trunk lid!
Compared to the last car I bought from a local caster up here, this will be a dream build. Will order again.

The'65 Plymouth AFX and parts arrived today. They look terrific! Can't wait to get the '65 Dodge Coronet AFX.
Thanks for your service, quality and talent!!! Tim Hennessey


( Owners of the real MACH IV Mustang 4- engine Dragster )
We received our MACH IV Mustang Dragster model kit, and it looks so neat. The body is like looking at our car in miniature....
(which, of course, is what it is). Cool! , Gary & Jill Weckesser

 

The '65 Plymouth Sedan AFX arrived yesterday....... It is beautiful !!!
I'm curious, Do you use injection molding for your resin? It is so crisp and smooth. The reason I ask is I work with State Tool and Die, building model railroad masters of steel mill cars. Your bodies look like our injection molded plastic. Anyway, I've now got two of your body/ kits. I will be ordering move!

SPEED CITY RESIN MODELS

Hi Guy's !
As a big fan of 60's era Drag Racing subjects, I'm always on the lookout for cool modeling subjects and Speed City Resin
Models of Castaic California definitely has my number! I've mentioned their kits in the past and forward their newsletter to
you whenever I get it because I think their products are top-notch and offer terrific value for the money. When Scott
announced his latest round of 60's era Altered Wheelbase Funny car kits, I ordered all four of them right away. (So much
for my grandson's college education!) The first two arrived about 2 weeks ago and when I got them, I was truly stunned.
Both of these subjects have been done by other resin casters in the past (I have those, too) but these are the first resin
kits I've seen of these subjects that are truly easy to build. At least they look like that to me. In addition to well proportions
and accurate bodies, both kits come with virtually all the parts you might otherwise have to scratch-build or heavily modify
from existing kit parts, like the chassis, interior tubs, bumpers, headlight covers, etc. Parts like the suspensions, seats,
engines, and wheels can come from other kits. Added to this is the incredible molding quality of the kits themselves.
They're molded in white resin and if there wasn't resin flash in the windows and hood areas, you would swear this was
styrene plastic.
Anyway, if you have even the slightest interest in 60's era drag cars, you really ought to buy at least one of these
and see how resin casting has progressed in recent years. These are amazing!


Just picked up my box with the 1966 Longnose Barracuda...guess what? Can I say FLAWLESS ?!!!! JUST AMAZING AGAIN, Scott!! I've waited 44 YEARS for this body!!! And let me tell you, the wait was WORTH IT!!!! LOVE THIS VERSION!!! You've once again SUCCESSFULLY made making these "classic" bodies a whole lot easier for us to make the cars of our "heroes" in miniature! Thank you so much for this resin kit!!!
CRAIG

I got the '65 Plymouth AFX and '66 Long Nose Barracuda resin kits today and as expected, they're extremely nice and put the other resin kits I have of these subjects to shame. If it weren't for the resin flash in some of the openings, I'd swear these were injected plastic. Nice job and I'm really looking forward to seeing the '65 Dodge Coronet AFX and the Charlie Allen Dart.
, Skip Samples

Hi Scott, Yesterday was a good day! I Received the '65 Chevelle Funny Car and '65 Plymouth AFX. Amazing quality - as good as the best plastic kits, and better than many. Looking forward to building them. I like the new resin material. The Chevelle has been released recently in plastic as a dirt track kit so chrome and glass is easy for it. Looking forward to the Coronet AFX and the upcoming wheels &tires. thanks, Steve


Just picked up my box with the FLYING DUTCHMAN body and PARTS!!!!! WOW!!! Can I say "WOW" again?!?!?! FLAWLESS!! You keep getting these things better and better and raising the notch up each time I order something new!!! LOVE IT!! Now, all we need is for SLIXX to do a decal for that body, huh? THANKS SO MUCH!!! Well-worth the wait!!!
CRAIG

Just wanted to let you know I received my order today. Was pleased with the fast processing and shipment of the items I ordered. The castings are excellent and well made and I look forward to building mine soon. I will be placing another order with you in the near future.
Thank you very much.
Glenn Rice

Just wanted to let you know that I received the Buick safe and sound on Thursday, and it IS a beautiful piece!! The conversion work on the master is perfectly symmetrical and cleanly done, and the casting appears to look like a vintage mint AMT piece - couldn't ask for nicer workmanship!! Thanks for doing what you do!! Thanks again, Kurt Lamlein

 

I just received my 65 Plymouth A/FX kit.Wow man is it great.The body is spot on.You have the best resins on the market.Its almost like working with plastic, I love it ! Looking forward to more new body's to build up. Again your stuff is the best .Thanks You do a great service for our hobby.
truly, nitro ron

 

I would just like to thank you for a recent purchase of Gene Snow's Dart. I've made purchases from five other competitors, but none
meets your quality and craftsmanship. Looking forward to future purchases and keep up the good work.
Sincerely, Mark Larson

 

I've purchased a LOT of resin bodies in my life from a lot of different sources, and I can honestly say that I've never seen anything better than what this company produces, not even the high-end European stuff or even Replicas & Miniatures.I have purchased several items over the last couple of years and have been very satisfied with both quality and the speed of delivery.

HI , Just to let you know my 1st order arrived today. it was a GREAT PLEASURE to see the EXTREME HIGH QUALITY WORKMANSHIP in your castings, THANKS A LOT your a REAL ASSET TO MODEL BUILDERS.

THANKS AGAIN. ART NOWAK
BLASDELL,NY

 

The quality of your castings and the high level of service you offer puts you streets ahead of the other guys.
You have single handedly restored my confidence in resin model companies !!!
I have been telling everyone out here ( in Australia) that I know in the model car community about your products, with the hopes that they too will feel comfortable in ordering from the US, as you have been 100% reliable (is this a bad choice of words?) in your business dealings with me.
Richard Fry

 

Speed City,
I received my order last week and to say that I am impressed would be an understatement. To see resin bodies with a sheen on them, and I am not talking about left over mold release oil, is definitely a step in the right direction. Kudos to you and your staff for taking the time to produce not only a fine product, but one that is very painstakingly accurate. It shows the passion that you folks have for scale realism. Thank you so much and look forward to more of my business. Keep up the good work.
PS. I am definitely looking forward to getting my 70’s Cuda FC body.
Regards, Daryl Tremblay

 

Hello Speed City,
I received my 70’s Cuda body shell.You people have really captured the funny car look with this body as I have a few other Cuda body shells from other resin casters and when one compares them side by side, you can really see the difference. I am not knocking the others, but I do prefer your rendition, and once again you folks have hit a home run with the finish and particularly the finish of the inside of the body shell. This shell almost seems like the true scale thickness of the 1:1 car. I cannot see where I will have to do any grinding with the old trusty Dremel. Have a great day and keep up the good work. Regards, Daryl Tremblay

 

BEAUTIFUL pieces on the Wagon master, the Hilborn manifold, and the injectors!!!! I've read the reviews on your bodies, and I must agree that they are just about like professional styrene bodies from the major model companies!!! (Maybe even BETTER!!!) The clean-up will be minimal, and it looks like you've already done quite a bit of clean-up already!! THANK YOU!!!!! NICE to not have to DRILL out the window openings, too!!! (I've gotten some before that I had to start with a hole and then Dremel the rest out!!), Craig Takamori

 

Scott:
As always fantastic work, and devotion to your items. This works for me and many others, as your testimonies prove.
Thanks for your quick reply back. With this kind of response I knew I better make it worth your time.
and make a immediate purchase with your listing on ebay this should also be a fantastic way for you to advertise your products.
I've always loved your work and new listing's as well, keep this up.
Looking forward to my next or continued purchases from you.
Thanks once again and happy upcoming Holidays.
Mark Johnson

 

Dear Speed City Resin,
I just received my Ivo Wagon master today and when my wife opened it and presented to me I was blown away! As a modeler who has purchased resin from many companies over the years I can say honestly that the quality is the best I have seen. The only other company in your league was All American a few years back. Very impressive my friend. I will be a return customer and will spread the word to my model buddies! I wasn't sure if my timing for ordering was very good for you but you got it out in a timely manner and I appreciate it. That is a pleasant experience in a world where some resin companies take a long time to ship with no explanation as to why.
If you wish to post my compliments on your site I would sum it up by saying very user friendly product that a resin beginner can have success with as it is close to working with styrene, very reasonably priced and very accurate as well. Thank you Speed City. Sincerely-Mark Soulsby

 

Just thought I would pass along to you guys that I received my order of 2 of Speed City's 67 GS's today. Man Scott did one hell of a job on this body!! The new resin he's using would almost pass for styrene. A definite must have!!! Cap ...... Vintage Drag Models Inc.

 

Ok I received my Wagonmaster bodies from Speed City today. All I can say is that I haven't seen this quality since All American Models was in business. The bodies are as thin as styrene. The molding and detail are crisp and precise. Well worth the money in my opinion. In addition to the Wagonmaster I also ordered their 66 AWB Corvair and an extra square tube AWB chassis that they do. I will be placing some more orders for sure. The owner kinda hinted at what his next project is and you won't believe it !!!! Quartermilers message board

 

eBay..... Great looking resin, and I know the difference, will buy more soon

eBay.......... This resin body is great, will need very little prep work

eBay.... One of the best resin castings I have seen. Look forward to more. Thanks.

 

SCOTT..........I WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOU HOW THANKFUL I AM FOR THE PRODUCTS I BOUGHT FROM YOU.......I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR ALL THE ATTENTION I HAVE BEEN GETTING OVER MY BUILDS......IF IT WASN`T FOR YOUR QUALITY RESIN PRODUCTS......IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE......I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO WHAT YOU HAVE NEXT ON YOUR WORK BENCH.......IT IS ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO DO BUSINESS WITH YOU.
THANK`S AGAIN, JOHN TERESI
