Curtis, May God Help you control your human urge to go 1/43rd I lost that one.
I still lean to 1/24th but with suppliers out it moves to 1/43rd. My point is I Thank God for these little treasures or maybe he's already sent me someplace else???? How can I find another space for another car? Draw your own conclusion. I rest my case.
