@harmonyards posted:Bill, did you get a lot of these from Perry up in MD?..I know Ryan from MTH was selling off a bunch of these stripped models as well, ....just curious as I’ve bought a ton of this stuff from Perry and Ryan both,.....Perry is a true gentleman, and a terrific host, I’ve spent many a day scouring through his piles of stuff. Ryan as well, he met me at his vacation house with a load of these engineering samples, never asked for a dime till the deal was done,....great guy,...

I have nothing but envy for you guys that live three miles away from everything. I live in deep south Texas and the internet is the only vehicle I have to get anything.
I bought four engines from Ryan, mostly for the brass showing and the fact that he is one of the MTH guys. Perry has moved a ton of stuff from the MTH warehouse in the past few years and I have tried to do my part. There was another seller on ebay last year that was selling off a lot prototypes from an estate. Apparently that gentleman bought from Perry also.
I am not sure we really own anything. We just sort of enjoy it for a while and then someone else takes up the chase.
