I agree Pat. There is a way to have a great engine that "you"(meaning any one person), have it worked on to your liking. It has been suggested to me by Pat, Pete, GRJ and a few others that if I want a good engine, by something that is a good solid model(older MTH stuff or KLine, anything really) and have it upgraded. I have a KLine Hudson that I should be getting ready to go out the door in a week or two and a very nice Weaver Canadian Pacific Royal Hudson as well. I haven't had a chance to get myself to a point to get things packed up and worked out with whom I'm sending stuff to, but that will be coming.
People sometimes forget that you don't always have to buy new. My current car was a very good deal, hardly used, low miles and I love it. My 83 year old recently bought a used pickup that is very much in the same category as my car, and she was very lucky too.
Anyway you look at the purchase of the toolings, there will be something for someone and hopefully with no bugs.
