I have three Exoto cars coming, but a Hurricane may show up as well so I don't know when I may get them if we get hit.

The cars are the Sauber-Mercedes C9 AEG sponsored car, and two Nissan R89C one with YHP sponsorship and the other with Calsonic sponsorship. This will give me all three of the factory works Nissans for the 1989 season. 

I spent 4 1/2 hours putting up hurricane shutters this morning. 

First and foremost - I hope you and yours stay safe John! 

I grew up in Florida - Hialeah; then moved, as an adult, to Palm Harbor, on the other coast. I hate hurricanes. We felt Helene all the way up here in the Smokies, so I certainly feel your pain. 

On the other hand, I love my Exoto Mercedes - Kouros livery so I am drooling. (Sorry, I made a mess.) Can't wait to see pics of the three. But, really; stay safe!! 

Thanks for the good wishes for the hurricane, we are ready, shutters are up and we have a metal roof, this storm could be a depression, a tropical storm or they are saying a category 1 hurricane but as you know things can change quickly with hurricanes. 

I have the Kouros Sauber-Mercedes C9 already, but the one I have did not have the antennas for the roof with it so I made two antennas from diodes. The Exoto Sauber-Mecedes C9 cars have a lot of great detail to them including the shifter actually works and you can see the linkage in the engine bay move back and forth with the shifter in the cockpit. 

The Nissans also have great detail and they have simulated air jacks that work, obviously not with air but you can put the jacks in the down position and the car sits off the surface. The rest of both cars are works of 1/18 scale art to me. 

@john3976 Yeppers!

Furious detail! (My C9 keeps getting stuck in neutral - LOL!!)

Good Luck John, stay safe.  If any of your three Exotos  end up at my house....  I'm keeping my mouth shut!  😀
