Passing along a hidden treasure in every town

[FloridaBoy]

I just got home from shopping with my wife which included a trip to Radio Shack. I haven't seen anything on this, but they have a product line of remote control 1/24 cars, which personally I am not into.

BUT, they have spare parts. Included in those spare parts are the coolest wheels and tires since Pegasus. I cleaned out the Pompano Beach store this afternoon, and consider myself lucky as the demographic in that particular store area is no kids. I purchased the coolest set of 1/24 spoke 22" wheels with black inserts, and low profile tires for eight bucks, and lots of other tire and wheel sets for three bucks, along with some extra tires for some Revell kits I purchased that had 2 sets of wheels and only one set of tires.

I am planning to clean out another Radio Shack tonight as they have a half price sale on these parts and I am going to take full advantage. And to think I was going to spend a couple of nights painting the inserts of some oversize wheels this weekend. It saved me a bunch of build time.

Go check it out. I am not an employee of Radio Shack or is any of my family; this is designed to pass on a treasure I found in my own neighborhood to my fellow modelers.

I have also seen suspension parts such as coilover shocks and springs.
