Post by: Raydar on May 10, 2018, 05:41:47 am: They don't look like Mr. Mikes. He usually puts a seam right down the middle, unless I'm mistaken.
John Willhoff even messaged me about these. He wondered if they were movie cars, since they both appear to be identical. But not that I'm aware of.

I heard that they had trashed them, and it looks like they sure did.

Interesting. They look like they might clean up decently. Sort of.

(For those who don't know, he is the keeper of the "88 Database" Registry)

Hard to tell. The paint looks like kwrap in the pics, but I'm thinking it's just pollen.

Post by: Raydar on June 19, 2018, 07:12:18 pm: I understand. Completely. Life is what happens when you're making plans for what you want to do.

A local friend of mine saw the repost. I think he's going to look at them.
I was going to try to save him a trip, if they were trashed.
