Message As per the thread below, I had my semi-weekly call with Paul bailey and here is the results of the conversation.

Paul Bailey used to distribute Strosek Z32 kits and was the UK distributor fro Stosek on Porsche kits.. All lot of the photos out there are a combination of kits as Strosek only made a few of the components. So they shared parts. Strosek stopped making Z32 kits and Paul had already developed his own. Paul Bailey was also concerned that other than the nose, the part never kit well at all and required way to much modification. Per Paul Bailey, the side skirts were a nightmare.

Thus all the molds and kits are now custom done by Paul Bailey.

There was also the cost factor as well. A Strosek kits in US doillars delivered is around 10K +/-. a full Paul Bailey kit is under 6K +/- and would include the wide body, hatch and other parts Strossek never had.
