Hi Ya'll. Short But Sweet;

             Well, for me anyway. I just acquired three "Boats" I have been looking for in all seriousness for about twenty years!. They Were on my doorstep this Morning when I stepped out for my Morning Smoke and Coffee at 5:30A.M. They consist of the old "Square Box" REVELL Chris Craft Motoryacht(Always a cute little model), An original MONOGRAM Swift Boat (Partially started) and the Kicker,REVELL'S Fireboat Kit(Also partially started) Don't know where they came from ,But I will resto them with care. The Builds amount to hulls assembled and some weird painting. Other than that inventory signals all parts there for all Three.

             Now, I do hope that whomever( Whoever? ) dropped these off is a visitor here. I would like to express my thanks.These three have always been on my list as enjoyable builds and conversion Starting points. Plus they are like three Dimensional Time Machines. I mentally jump back to when I built my first ones! Thank You !!

That was a nice gesture. Chalk it up to guardian angel, fairy godmother or Keebler elves, it's some cool projects for you! YesBig Smile

Hey, I've got an unbuilt fireboat kit, except for the hull and rudder which is getting bashed into a purse seiner.

This one has the razzle dazzle plated fire apparatus. I'd be happy to mail it to the Museum if you need the parts

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
