Default Charley Arms - Availability

Does anyone have any news on the availability of "Charley Arms" from Wrightwood Racing? I understand that he only makes one batch a year or something like that. Is that correct?

Yes, He only make 1 batch of 20 and he is not going to do anything until Feb or march.

I tried to get a group buy of 10 and if we got them prepaid, he might do them sooner.

I spoke to Charlie yesterday and he said again, If I get 10 paid in full people($1895each). He will try his best to get them done asap. The problem is, I still don't think I have 10 people, more like 5-6.

Other wise, he will take his time and make a set of 20 in 4-5 months from now..

Kevin,

I forgot to ask him as we spoke of many things but if this moves foward, I will talk to him soon. I will probably meet up with him at the PRI show too.

Dave,
I would have a set if it was January, but can't justify the spend before Xmas
Let me know if the timeline goes out to Jan

Cheers
Tom

Tom,

I will have to ask John D if I can't start a group buy first. I know for a fact he won't make any before Jan, but we should ahev our money ready by then..
