Hobby's Bobby's post remineded me of a reoccurring dream I have where I am in either an old house or a old store and I find my way to some back room with metal rack style shelving.
There are all sorts of old kits there and for almost nothing. I am scooping up armfulls of kits. I've had this dream at least 5 times.
It's pretty close to a visit I took to Bill H.'s house once in Nor Cal. It is ALL models with only a space to eat and sleep. Story was that his wife told him to make a choice, and he did.
He had sooooo much stuff including a Wingrove. I bought a Firecracker from him. Not cheap, but in good shape.
Keep dreaming.
Flounder.

I have had several model dreams over the years. They usually involve finding some huge stash of vintage kits. I vividly remember a few of the most recent ones, and one was about just stacks of vintage drag and showrod kits. Another had stacks of large scale bike/trike kits way up on a top shelf in some store, and I was just freaking out, and I was p'd when I woke up!! LOL! I used to have those Hot Wheel dreams too Don!
On the upside, sometimes dreams come true. Many years back, I had a fellow (now my long-time toy buying partner) answer a small ad in the local paper about Hot Wheels. He told me he had a few old ones in the package. Turned out to be (6) Mongoose/Snake front engined dragster 2-Paks, still sealed! Schwing! Picked them up for 20 bucks each too! ;D THAT'S the stuff dreams are made of!!!

I love kits and cars, but it seems there's only one thing I ever dream about- Women!
