Sounds like the supermodels ...would be able to afford to drive SUPERcars then!

Regular models, maybe just rusty old Chevys?

Hello, John, I must say very professional and we all must have more, more, more. Great job maybe you could post one a week. I know your time is limited but I know I and probably many members are impressed. This is the most interesting (at least for me) post in the last few years. A big thank you for posting. Regards, Paul

I like your review, John. How many people use John's method of pulling out the flaps?

In the past I've used my fingers and often torn the flap. Now I use a nail file or thin screwdriver to gently release the ends of the flaps. Works wonders. Also I appreciated John's comments about the fragility of these models and leaving them on their base.

Lol...I've opened the flaps like that for years now. Great that you noticed that.

For me, a letter opener. Learned my lesson on the old Brooklin boxes.
