I have been busy with my day jobs so I haven't been on the forum much. I did request an update on the Lucy Blue last Friday. The year end and holiday season has delayed getting the material for extrusion. We are waiting for one of the compounds necessary. I am hoping that this problem will be addressed shortly. I have been assured by the extruder that as soon as they get the material, they will run it. So if I had to guess, we are looking at three weeks.
Starlight Black has been color matched and I am waiting for the final version to be supplied for approval. So I should be starting the year with two colors in production shortly.
On another note, I have made contact with the folks at Muscle Car Review and they are interested in putting the welding and the reproduction trim rings I have made in their new products section. I hope that will broaden the exposure for these items. We'll see.
As far as the cost of the Lucy Blue welting, assuming it lives up to the color sample and quality of the other colors, it looks like the price will come in around $150 to $180. That is better than I thought it would be. That is owed to the interest from all of you on the forum as well as others who have contacted me privately. I hope that price range will work for all of you. It is a lot less expensive than the labor and material cost of painting the other options.
Thanks,
James
