And the other side. The characteristic running board steps weren't available anywhere I could find in brass, but I found a seller on Shapeways (3-D printed detail parts) that offers them and other unusual parts. They look great, and were reasonably priced.
Wow! Are the steps printed out of metal, or plastic? I'm thinking that 3-D printing is going to make a lot of modelers happy in the future!!
