I sent my bodies to Cali, I know he has painted mine, and they are nice.
I think he has too many things going on, doing rc painting on the side and his day job.
He received my bodies 10/25, last I heard he was shipping Wed.
Haven't heard back if they shipped or not.
I did ask for and pay for Priority, Insured, Tracking.
I don't trust the Post Office anymore, and figure with my luck they would get lost or damaged.
Andy seems like he is genuinely a cool guy, I talked with him several times on the phone.
Hopefully he will send tracking soon, I'm thinking they (as in yours and mine) haven't shipped yet.
I'm sure this will all work out.

I'm sure you're right. I doubt if after 30 years of being an r/c paint legend he's going to take up heisting bodies.

Now that I think about it, he's probably the only person to have more bodies lying around than mrlexan! :lol:

I know with me I am so used to buying something and having it in a week or less.
I have tried to keep in mind this is not one of those deals.
I do think I was very lucky to be able to have him paint the bodies for me, they will be used for tribute buggies that he painted back in the 80's.
BTW I did send him links to the Andy's thread in the paint section, was hoping he would join up.
As with anything else communication is key.

Ok I want pictures. I have read all of this and still no pics so when you get them if you don't post pics I might have to hunt you down. :lol:
