Rain Tires

Since Avus3d screwed me over, I'm looking for a new source for rain tires for older 1/12 Tamiya kits. P34, Wolf, Tyrrell 003, etc. Found a guy on ebay from Austria, called st.irish. anyone have any experience with him?

Re: Thunder Valley still in business?

Great to hear from you, Mac. I am wondering if you still have AZMP-M23-1201 available. It's the correct air box for Peter Revson 1973 Yardley McLaren. I've tried you via Facebook and by your email address, but haven't heard back.
