[WWI] Building the old kits

[john isn't eddie anymore]

If you have 'em, build 'em. I agree-with a lil TLC the Aurora (for the most part) make nice models, same for Lindberg and SMER/Merit. I've also stripped and re-built the survivors of my younger days with some good results-Revell type S proves it's strength after 40+ years!!! Same philosophy applies to my electric trains-I prefer the beaters, re-paints done accurately look so much nicer and degradation of percieved value are moot because I believe in running as well as building-posterity can't really appreciate a box of un-attached parts any more than it can understand the charm of battered, inert tinplate. BTW a Q-as in Quentin Roosevelt-I've got a little, dated info that his Nie was #14, no s/n on tail, yellow cowl and wheel fabric with red spiral-Ive been told it should be a B&W cowl/wheels. Any comment??-John Marganski
