Scale models of cars, trucks, motorcycles, machinery.
Double WOW! I found this model on the web and bought it flat out. Why would I do that? Let's back up to 1947 as this is the answer.
My cousin "Jim" came home from the Navy in late 1945 and lived with his parents in Alliance, [...]
Another fine looking sport's car to build and add to my growing car collection beside's all those Cadillac's.
I may have just polished out the white car body as I do not recall all the things I did to it.

The wooden pallet represents the kind of "skid" that they put engine's on [...]
