If someone wants to sponsor a project, I'll gladly entertain it. John was THE driving force behind getting the SAL B7 to the "go" status. The HO B7 body design is mostly done, now it's time for detailing, then moving to the rest of the kit. Once the HO design is done, I'll convert the CAD files to S and get those patterns going.
The HO 65' mill gon has been produced by Athearn (most recently) and Eastern Car Works (many years ago). There is no HO market for this kit, so producing it for S scale only will require a sponsor. I am not willing to risk the time and expense to produce an S-only car at this time.
