Hello Christophe,
OK, you're right, there are a LOT of 234 wheels out there. HOWEVER, to the best of my knowledge, they have always been derivatives of the kit hubs and another company's tread patterns. I could be wrong, but I have yet to see the style tread patterns we just released, let alone the 2-hole rim. As soon as we finish with the 234 sets, we will be doing some new tire patterns for the US M3 halftrack and the M8 armored car. I also have my eye on some new patterns for the LRDG truck, as well as some other vehicles. Fritz is good enough to make these things from scratch, and now that he's with us, we'll see what we can do about addressing other needed tire voids.
As for the F3 "late" Famo, we have the correct outer road wheel and Jean-Baptiste's drive sproket. I have done the new dash, driver's compartment and some other minor details needed for this update. HOWEVER, I have never been happy with what I was able to do for the front fenders. I think we'll have this solved soon, and as soon as we do, this kit will be on the market, as well.
I know there are MANY other areas we need to get to besides the German stuff. Modern comes to mind right away. It just isn't that easy to find guys who master to the level TMD is looking for who are also fast enough to make deadlines AND interested in the items that need to be done. As we find them, we will start getting more Commonwealth and US items out there for you. Until then, how about dropping by our web site and leaving us ideas. We listen to what you guys ask for, and about 1/3 of what we do comes directly from suggestions left by our customers.
Thanks for listening. Hope we can find something to make you smile soon.
