Any resin guys out there have plans to make a conversion plug to convert the aero car to notchback?

I would be interested in this as well. I prefer the notchback but am thankful to Scalextric for bring us a 80's Monte Carlo nonetheless.

I can't see a "plug" to make this happen faster or easier.
A modeler can fill the back deck lid and use clear plastic for a rear window.
Already seen a couple done.
Maybe a whole new mold with those changes in place, but personally, as a caster myself, would not waste time with any type of plug or add on. It would still require filling,sanding. And if you are going to that, you can make your own easy enough.

william,
I have a 3D printed notchback body I purchased, and have done some trimming work on. It needs much more work to be finished into a good buck for a mold. You can own it for $80, I paid $117 for it if your into it. I will never get back to it.
