7/8ths Coaches

Post by doublereefed » Thu Feb 02, 2017 8:53 pm

Greetings,

Does anyone know if the 7/8ths coaches in this video are offered commercially? Nice looking cars. I would appreciate a pointer if they are.

Best,

-Richard

They look like the ones IP Engineering use to make, however, are no longer available.

Sigh. A day late and a dollar short, as they say. Thanks!

All the 7/8s stock seemed to disappear from IP Engineering's website overnight. I'm curious as to why that may be.

If you read the Modelearth blog by Si Harris you will see that somebody (named jn the blog) on the SE lounge was rather disparaging about the IP kits and overnight Ivan pulled the plug. Like you I would like some coach kits. Not sure whether Simply 7/8th over here are making kits still, they advertise some quite nice looking coaches. I must also check whether the Baldrig kit is still made.
