Sorry it's been a while. We've been all super busy with either work or personal matters. Not only that but our entire team is going on a trip in 2 weeks to visit Oregon for the Goonies 30th Anniversary. We're not doing anything team related while we're up there. We are all just huge fans of the movie. Anyways, upon our return we will have a booth at the L.A. Cosplay Con on June 13th. After that you can find some of us at SDCC and all of us at the Mass Hysteria party. We look forward to seeing everyone there.
Not a whole lot has happened with this project in the last few months, but I do have a few small updates to include. First, we finally got our hands on the elusive 3/4" red Dakaware knobs. Behold!
Finally! The little detail was driving us nuts. It doesn't make a huge difference but you can really notice it when comparing to the other sizes. (L2R: 1/2", 3/4" & 1")
One of these lucky knobs will find a permanent home on the instrument panel.
We also tried getting our hands on the spring mechanisms for the door, but the company that had them told us they were discontinued and no longer had stock. Damnit! We have a few other suppliers to get them from but that's going to have to wait until after our trip.
We also have been busy with something else. For the last two years we've been collecting parts to build an Ectomobile using a Ford Flex. Here's a small update on that.
Here are most of our parts laid out.
Oooh, sexy! However, this will make it sexier..."Everybody can relax, I found the car."
We have high hopes that the car will be done by October of this year. The containment unit done by 2029+...
I've searched high and low for these dakaware 3/4
