I tried a lot of ways to contact him, and after a few months I got a response from his email. I am not in a position to buy, but he is willing to sell the molds and remaining shells:

Josh,

If you are still interested in purchasing the body molds and machine let me know. I maybe in a position to sell.

Thanks

Good luck to whoever makes the plunge. I would love to see Dahms come back to market in some form.

sounds like mrlexan needs to go on a roadtrip!

This definitely sounds right up Mrlexan's alley, would be great to see Dahms start up again.
I always liked the looks of their bodies. If only I would have stocked up on some of them.

I'll give him $20 bucks for everything including shipping....

Man, It would be great if someone (Mr. Lexan) started pumping out some Dahms bodies.

I especially liked their Beetle bodies and SUV bodies....

I'm sure the molds and whatever else don't come cheap.

I spoke to him several months ago and he wanted way too much at the time, so I thought I'd let it simmer a while. Additionally, he mentioned that several of the molds were not in very good shape - cracked, etc. (made out of some sort of clay?). Said everything was being stored in the crawl space/basement of his parents (or in-laws) house, so I can't imagine that environment being good for that stuff. He was supposed to send me some photos of the lot, but I never heard back.

Hopefully, someone will be able to bring some of those bodies back. I sure would like a couple of Commando bodies for my 10Ts.

i just bought them all. i'm gonna reshape them into "nice" looking bodies.

The shape of the Commando is why I always used it on my racer - it helped it to flip back over on it's wheels.

well, you gotta use what works. ya can't always trust the corner marshalls to get you back on all fours in a timely manner.

A guy I raced with , if you yelled at him to get your car he would step on your shock tower as payback. I guess his parents never tought him sporsmanship

the dahms buggsy series bodies are probably my favorite lid ever. commando and slammers are cool too.

dahm's slammer 10t bodies, that is what i have been after for years. my favorite aftermarket stadium truck body, i really need a new one.

They have some decent buggy bodies too. I wish I could remember the names.

If anyone does buy this stuff, I've got two and a half words: No pre-orders.
