Ray is this one of your creations or the real deal. I always wondered why WE did not have a yellow 302s. Looks great. Can you give us some closeup pics?....thanks...Doug

Yes, it's one of my "special" projects Doug.  A customer asked me if I could do a "Stanley Tools" Yellow 302, and this is what I sent him. Of course, the cords just HAD to match as well. I order snow-white cloth-covered cords from OldPhoneWorks and dye them to match. I had to shorten the handset cord per the customer's request.

I like it!

That is very cool, Ray.  Beautiful phone. 

As far as OPW cloth, coiled handset cords.  I think they are way too long.  I once ordered one in a shorter length as their are just too long unless perhaps used on a wall phone.  It took forever to get the cord but it was a perfect length.  I think 9 inches was the number I used when ordering.

I'd love to have a 302 in this colour. And many other colours too

How bout this color? 

[Tom B]

Pyschedelic! I have a number of 500's in various colours - would like to have matching 302's - Cherry Red, Pink, Moss Green, Med Blue, Yellow, Aqua, and Beige. Oxford Grey, Rose Beige, Lime Green, Orange, Turquoise, and Mahogany Brown are all on my list. 302's in all those colours would be cool

Awesome colors!

Does Ray sell just the parts to put a 302 together from your base ?
His website isn't very informative as far as pricing or what's available.

[HarrySmith]

Ask him!

[Doug Rose]

Ray....both colors are just amazing. Outstanding....as usual....DOug

[Dan/Panther]

What great Idea.
Ray, can you tell us if we can buy the parts to put a colored 302 together from our base ?
What approximately would the parts run ?
Thanks,
D/P

In answer to your question Dan, yes, I do/will sell you the complete body (finger-hold piece and clear plungers included), and handset (you have to populate the handset with contacts & modules).

Price depends on the color, but are around $450 for the complete kit.

What a beautiful creation.  Yellow definitely should have been a factory color, and this proves it.
