hated to hear about the paddy wagon but have to say i have a sad story also about this very same kit ! lets go back a few years ----like 30 have all my cars sitting in the floor ( i know ,first mistake !) dusting the shelves ,pretty good for a 10 year old kid ,an my moms new "boyfriend" walks in to tell me dinner is ready ,you got it KRUUNCHHH !! made me like him even less he did buy me a new one though, thats when you could just go to the store and find them on the shelf for like $2 ,sure miss those days... dig the library display though,looks good ! ,roger

hello all ! im new to the site ,well not exactly new ive been watching from the sidelines for awhile now an just have to say there are some crazy talents on these pages, you guys are amazing !anyways,ive been picking up some tom daniel repops from years gone by and was hoping i might get some of your skills and input in the "simulated wood" area ,such as the seats in the paddy wagon ,ladders an rear deck on the fire iron ,barrels beer wagon ...etc. you guys get the idea !ive seen the balsa wood on flat areas and heard "dry brushing" but not sure how any of it really works,any help at all would be wonderful ! ive been out of building for awhile but the last few i did were drag kits an theres not alot of wood to paint on top fuel cars,hoping you might share some skills. thanks to all, look forward to hearing from you! thanks again,roger
