        Mike, Do your kits include drawings sufficient to build the cowl or are the parts to build it included in the kop. Thanks, Mike

          No, you will need to probably contact some of the guys out in Washington state, RC Unlimited and see if they have any molds. I am sure they do. Mike

            Checked. They are all 1/8th scale. Sent an email to the guys at ercu. They're the 10th scalers.

                Jeff Campbell at ercu makes a 1/10th cowl for the 1985 U-100 Coors Light. It's the same cowl I believe as the executone and several others. It is an epoxyglass cowl with carbon fiber reinforcement. Price is $45.

                Anyone else interested his email is [email protected]

                He is insistant that nobody make a mold from his cowls!

                  Jim, That is awesome that you found the mold. Mention me as a framing supplier for the 8255, and hopefully others down the road! Mike

                        Sorry to say no it kind of got put on the back burner when I re rigged the first scratch built boat for racing. Now I am involved in building an entertainment center for my house. When I get my 30in Miss K kit from Doug Campbell (in a couple of weeks) my intent is to build both kits at the same time so I will have the 1/16th thriftway and a 1/12th Karelsen hull build going also Probably will be Version 5.0 of the 67 Bardahl

                          Mike,

                          You should email him yourself and tell him what all you are doing!

                            I will do that Sailr. My main reason for not reaching out to the guys at ERCU yet is I do not have but a couple 1/10th scale hulls yet. The '55 Thriftway and the '82 Executone are all I have worked on so far! I have around 24- 1/8 scale plans, most being done. The problem with downsizing, is all your cross member cuts have to be adjusted to work with the next size, and new size of materials being used, so its time consuming to do that adjustment. My main goal right now is to just keep plugging away at 1/8 scale kits, and do the other size hulls as people request them. I also need to find some time to do some racing this year. I have not even been to a pond in almost 2 months! Gotta do that soon!

                              Jim Clark, I just finished the 1/8th scale 6740 Bardahl plans as well. That is a cool boat! Here are some pics of recent frames I got back from the laser cutter:
