I try my best to pay attention to the details in everything I do and it's nice when people notice it, so thank you for that.

I just like to do cars that are different. Glad I converted you into a Metro fan

Re: 1951 Metro- The Restoration Begins

How about this one. I bought it several years ago. Sadly, it is a die-cast model about 12 inches long

Try this on, Scottso

Kind of cool item... Because you guys on this forum have been with me through my restoration I am offering this to you. My shirts should be arriving in a week or so. I have black or white shirts if anybody wants one. They are $20 (includes shipping) just PayPal me at d-valentino@msn.com and put size and color in the notes
