Russ it does seem to have slowed down again. The cable guy was here today and redid some connections. I will say the site runs faster for me if I pause AdBlock. Not a problem to pause it though.
I need to watch this one. My grandfather worked at the Toledo Willys plant during the war. One of the things regret is never asking more questions about that time when he was still with us.
Steve I think I have seen at least one of these at the NNL Nationals. Another in one of the contest issues. Maybe the same truck. They used one of the Car Hauler beds.
To be honest we have all had brain fads behind the wheel. 2, 4 or what ever you have under your booty. Makes no difference when you make a mistake. Hopefully when it happens no one gets hurt or worse.
It all come down to time and money for the quality of the parts being made. The Resin casting changed the way that old models with missing parts have been treated by builders and collectors. The web and EBAY have changed the way people can and do enjoy the Hobby. I think it will have a big positive impact but have no idea how long it will take because of the cost and time frame.
Nick have they just switched sorting location by you? When they did that to us our mail took longer than normal for awhile. Strange thing to have your local mail go 80 miles north to come back to the house next door or 5 miles away.
