    Thinning the fleet- price change (price change)

    I'm going to concentrate efforts on getting my 2 Type XXIIIs done (Bronco and OTW), so I'm gauging interest on the sale of two other boats that I have.

    One is a 1/48 scale Type XXI hull from Matt Thor, with conning tower and other kit bits from Doug Badgely's original. This kit is not started. Asking $200 for this kit; shipping to be determined.

    The other is OTW/Bob Dimmack's Type VII kit. Conning tower has long been completed, the rest of the hull is partially done. I have tons of the bits and pieces that come with the kit including the running gear, extra guns, fittings, etc. The conning tower is the fiberglass one; the metal version is unbuilt. Asking $800 for this kit, with shipping to be determined.
    Models are located in Richmond VA area, and I have no bloody idea what it would cost to ship the Type VII. I can check with a carrier on a box for the XXI.

    If someone is interested that is somewhat local, we can talk about meeting to do the sale.
    One other quick note: These are "modeler's models", not beginner's models. It will take some effort to get them complete and in the water. Just so you know...

    PM me for questions.

    Sam
    Type VII








    Type XXI

      Re: Thinning the fleet-(additional changes)

      I have a deal for the tower. Swapping the finished one for an unbuilt one.

      I have someone potentially interested in the Type VII. Someone please make me an offer on the XXI.

          Do you still have the flying sub? I just re-joined the committee after a few years absence and found your thread.

                Sam,
                What is your asking price on the Type VII (if it is still available). Thanks

                    Raising this to the top.
                    OTW Type VII still for sale. Includes running gear and lots of extra bits. The finished tower was sold, so this includes all the parts needed for the tower and the fiberglass tower.

                      That's a great deal on a beautiful boat.

                      Just for clarification, there is a fiberglass tower for the kit in addition to the brass one pictured? If I didn't already have an OTW Type VII on the shelf, I'd be all over this one...

                        That's correct, Bob.
                        As you know, the kit's photoetch frets come with the brass tower pieces, but I also have the fiberglass tower. The built one in the photos is sold; the kit has all the parts to rebuild that tower; resin pieces, photoetch, etc.
                        I love this kit. Bob did a great job on it.
                        I just don't see myself getting to it anytime soon, and the car I now drive can't carry a 7 foot model.

                            Chris-
                            give me a bit of time. Huge week at work, and I won't have time to measure box size and weight right away.

                              Chris- I'll be checking with UPS this week to see about a box and shipping.
                              thanks.
