I would like to see if there is anyone else interested in having HO scale 3D printed Missouri Pacific style (with portholes) E7A and E7B unit shells produced.

While I don’t model passenger trains this has been on the MP/TP modelers ‘want list’ for 30+ years. At one time there was a resin porthole insert option offered where the modeler took a Model Power E-7 and carved out the side panels and inserted the porthole insert. Difficult to do without having to use putty and not lose rivets on the model. Were you thinking of an entire new carbody?

Yes, I was considering a complete shell for the “A” and “B” units. I have been in contact with a gentleman who has arranged for production of 3D printed custom shells for the Rock Island AB6 and is planning to do the Alco DL-110. I have also seen an HO
custom shell set for the Union Pacific’s original “City of Denver” power units.
