george 53 Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 That's Vauhn Harts outfit. He does ALOT of Mopar stuff. I've purchased 70 Duster bench seat, a 71 Charger super b conversion kit, 71 Challenger conversion kit, and a few other things. I think his stuff is pretty good. Fair prices too. Hth.
gtx6970 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I have the sixpack duster hood and the 1969 Six pack Roadrunner hoods, both are decent,,, not perfect,,, but workable The 71 challenger conversion on the other hand , IMO, needs serious work to make it usuable
caine440 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) I have had good luck with his parts. While the 71 conversion is not perfect I was happy with how it turned out and am using it for another project. Sure is more affordable then some other options. Edited July 3, 2012 by caine440
gtx6970 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I have to admit, that looks pretty good. I have the grille and tail conv set. and to me the grille just looks to shallow. I want to do several 71 challenger pro stocks and I'm not having much luck coming up with any original MPC builders. I have an extra mpc 1970 and several 72-74 builders I can use for parts. so I am going to try a Modelhause body and see what it gets me http://www.modelhaus.com/index.php?c=4082&p=67632
gtx6970 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) Here it is just stuck in a body. Don't get me wrong, considering the options this might be a viable alternative for some. And I may use it yet. But, I myself would rather pay more for better quality and/or for a full body already done Edited July 3, 2012 by gtx6970
caine440 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) I agree it does look a little off next to a MPC based body. Build one up and see what you think of the finished deal. I am using a lindberg body on the next one instead of the AMT. This one is from Reliable resin. Edited July 3, 2012 by caine440
Custom Mike Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 It's hit and miss with his stuff, I have some really nice pieces from him, and got some bad ones too. Best piece so far was a set of hideaway headlight grilles for a '71-'74 Charger, worst was a '68 Satellite hood. Look closely at what you want from his selection, and ask around to see if anyone has used that piece, that's the best advice I can give you.
Casey Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 How do you find his stuff? http://www.hartspartsresin.com/
tubbs Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 does this guy and smallblockdodge resin company have anything in common? parts look simular.....
1972coronet Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 The thing which worries me a bit is that none of the products' pics on their site can be viewed as a larger image . I'm quite tempted by that 1971 Duster bench seat (master is a modified version of the kit's rear seat , perhaps ?) , but am also apprehensive . Good subject matter ; would like to see some of their other parts applied to their respective kits (the '71 Challenger conversion looks decent , albeit a little "flat" in opposition to the MPC or the 1:1). Does any-one have pics of , say , the '71 340 Duster with the Hart's Parts' bench seat ?
tvandmoviecars Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) anyone familiar with his 73/74 "GTX" conversion parts, to make a stock satellite? How reliable is he as far as shipping items? I bought hoods from another esin caster in december... and STILL waiting... Edited July 31, 2012 by tvandmoviecars
Custom Mike Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 Don, I had no problem with getting parts from him, I just hated the '68 Satellite hood, everything else was great. The parts arrived in less than two weeks, which is great for just about any resin caster out there!
tvandmoviecars Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 hope so.. I just ordered 2 hoods and 3 dashes from him, earlier today... fyi.. the OTHER place (NOT Missing Link, a different resin caster) that I bought from on ebay, the same hoods in December and never got.... sent me a refund today, after I asked the status... so we are all good.
caine440 Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 You will have no problems with getting them. He ships in a timely fashion.
Rob Hall Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 I just got some parts from Harts...less than a week after I ordered. Some nice Mopar parts.
tvandmoviecars Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 just got my parts from him today, and quality looks good. have not test fit yet, but looks good in ther box. nicely shipped, each part in seperate ziplock, then filled with foam peanuts.
imatt88 Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I got my stuff from Harts. Got it fast and no complaints
FASTBACK340 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Just a good-word for Vaughn Hart & his service. I ordered a few items that arrived within a few days, and they are nice. Clean castings and well packaged. Nice resin, thank you!
Elliot949 Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) I got a 69 Johan Roadrunner hood from Smallblockdodge a couple of years ago and it was so bad He sent me another one and itwasn't anybetter... I just gave up on the parts... they are less than workable ... The hood had a real thick bar across the underside of it... I am assuming he did that so the part would stay somewhat straight... Trust me it didn't works and trying to get the thick bar off and make it look good was a waste of my time... Edited February 16, 2013 by Elliot949
Keef Posted May 25, 2013 Posted May 25, 2013 i ordered some parts from him and so far i have nothing to show for it, i ordered and paid for my parts on april 22nd, i was told on May 16th that they were shipped on May 14th and i should receive them on May 18th, i have sent 2 emails to seller, both of which have been met with NO reply at all. its now May 24th and i still have nothing
Burnout Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 May just be luck of the draw but I recently placed my first ever order and received my hood within a few days. The quality was top shelf. Hope you get your parts.
