Nice score.... I have found some neat old kit at antique malls. I found a 59 Pontiac that was built but not painted for $8. Arnie the Farmer Beswick was at a show one time and he had all his models of cars he drove on display, But not the 59... Now he does. This was yrs ago *NM*

You never know...
Many of my best scores have come from small shows, automotive swap meets, and farm toy shows.
Indeed you never know. You just have to ask!

At this point I had known Arnie for several years so he wasn't a stranger. Anyway, in conversation he offered to pay me for it, he reached into his pocket and rolled out what appeared to be $50. I told him I would not accept that and just to take I only have $8 in **INSIDE**
Great story. Thanks for sharing that. We could probably blah, blah, blah about drag strip and short track encounters forever. Still nice gesture to give it up to Arnie. , *NM*
