Picked up the package from the PO today....forgot to stop by PO the last couple of days

Fairlane handled the trip the best....
The '29 Ford #34 "lost" its rear push bar, no problem to get that one back up and running.
The blue #1d faired a bit worse, rear axle/driveline knocked off, along with R/f wheel/tire and shock, and side nerf bars,

The sprint car.......will take some TLC to get it ready for the track...

One "mystery" piece.... black "V" shaped bar....not sure where that one goes.....

Regardless of how these made the trip, I am very proud to have them in my collection!!!!
Thank you....thank you....thank you!!!!  Really appreciate this!!

 :)  Thank you, Ed.  You are very kind to say those things.

Not sure about the V bar, but I believe it was on the rear bumper of the 34 with the point up.  If not maybe on the track roadster.  Yeah, the late models don't have much to break off.

 :)  I appreciate everyone's help on the models.  I am about through.  Only a few more guys have made  requests. 

I found three boards up in the attic, that have been there most of 24 years, that I once made some shelves with by stacking some bricks between them.  So, I am going to be able to take more models with me than I first thought.  I saw that idea in a projects or woodworking book way back there. 

When I  moved here I had a whole wall of book shelves, so did not need that idea, but I can use it again, now,  whenever I move.

I had completely forgotten about those boards.  I think I can stack coffee cans between them this time.

You are quite welcome John!
At the moment the ones you sent me are on a small bookshelf I recently got, that is in the living room and in a position where I can look at them while watching TV.....

 :) :) :)  Ok, everybody.

Letting you know that I am done with my model give-a-way. 

I have sent off, or delivered, about 44 built models. I thank y'all for helping me with the shipping charges.

If I have missed anyone, or shorted anyone, then please let me know, and I will make it right.

As mentioned earlier, I have found a way to take more with me than I first thought, so that is good.  Thanks, again. It was a fun thing for me to do and to pay back a little for all you have done for me, which includes put up with my rambling at times.

 :)  Thanks, Rett.  I have enjoyed knowing you.  I don't plan to lose touch.  Just have to be low key here for a bit.
