Thanx for your attention and nice words. So i try my next answer

The Goggo Pick-Up/Fourgonette was really produced. I found these Spanish Site in the Web:

www.grupo7.com/microcoches/goggo.htm

The Car was produced by a Spain Company under Licence from the German Glas Company. Only a few Models where produced. The Version with the Window will come after we have finished the first Model.

We try to cast the Goggo Pick-Up as Transkit for the Brekina Model. So you have only to change the Body of the Model.

Nice job Michael, it's nice to see new "aftermarket" accessories for some of the vehicles out there. Thanks.

Dear Michael:

Very interesting the site above. I learnt something new today. Liked the Australian Gogos and had no ideia that these inspired the Trabant.

Hi Michael,
thanks for the info and the interesting Goggo-site. In your photos sometimes we don´t know what is made by you and what already is from the trucks. For example the chromed exhaust-pipe seen by the tank-unit, which material is? Seems to be a really tube?

The Exhaust-Pipe is made of a Brass-Tube and painted with Testors Chrome Silver.

Beautiful models. I wish you success with your undertaking.

We have some new Models:

We have strech and short the Busch Model of the Toyota.



Here are two Pics from testing the Proportions:





And a first assembeld long one:



We are now searching for a company to produce the pieces in resine.

Oh my! Lovely work, do send me an e-mail when the Toyota jobbies become available.

How did you create the lettering on the back lid of the pick-up bed?

[mo87]

The lettering is made out of thick paper. Printed on a Laser-Printer and then cut off with a skalpel.

[Lee]

Hmmm. I wonder if a sheet of thin plastic could be run through a laser Printer. You guys are doing a fantasitc job. Keep up the good work.

[skunk]

I guess you could always print the lettering onto a decal sheet and then affix them to some Evergreen styrene, no? I also suppose that if one is making something that will be cast, then thick paper works just fine.

I love the trucks by the way, but aren't you going to be sad when Busch gets around to offering the same models themselves? Judging by the construction of the Busch Land Cruiser, these versions are likely to at least be planned.

[mo87]

At first we thougt that the lettering willbe made as a photo etched piece, but then we try the paper test and it works fine.

We have the Models more than a Year on our ToDo/Wish list.

Marc got the Info on the last Toy Fair that Busch is not interessed in developing other types of the Toyo. After this Information we start with the models.
