    I haven't been to their site in a long time, but it's been revamped and they don't list the Dino 206 or 246 in their list of models...which seems to be the launching point for locating parts and seeing parts drawings.

    What am I missing?

    Ted was ill and sold his business to Wayne Obry and Motion Products Inc. Sadly, Ted died on March 10, 2016, and then, even worse, Wayne Obry died unexpectedly on March 11, 2016. From what I understand, Motion Products has been combining and re-organizing their Ferrari parts and they have found many parts for me in the past. I would try calling Patrick Knapp at MPI. His phone number is 920/725-4688 - he's a very nice guy.

    I basically knew some of the history (eg, Ted's passing), but was simply pointing out that whoever took over TRutlands isn't showing any Dino support if you simply go by their web site.

    TRutlands has never been an 'internet' business so I would not rely on their website for much. They are the old fashioned pick up the phone and call them kind of place and I am sure you will find that they still support the Dino as much as they always have.

    Like I said, Rutlands seems to be having issues, so call Patrick Knapp at MPI, as I am pretty sure he can help sort things out. Not much of a mystery at this point.
