Talking A dream come true!

I just have to share this with you guys.I know it is not old airplanes but the era is close.I am the proud new owner of a 1930 Ford Model A Tudor.This is something I have dreamed about since I was a kid.It is too long a story to tell here but I guess dreams really can come true ,even at my age.
Cheers! John.

John you have to show us a photo of you behind the wheel. I want to see the grin that goes from ear to ear.

Know how you feel when my wife bought me a 1953 350cc Matchless motorcycle a few years back. Dreams do come true.

The above chart is for buying wood at your local woodstore that is equivalent to 1/24 scale.
If you have to chose between larger or smaller always take the smaller.
