Those are the kinds of things that genuinely make me wonder “what was the prior owner thinking?” And I do NOT mean that in a snarky mean spirited way, but more along the lines of “what were they envisioning when they set out to makes those mods?”



That’s what I was thinking too. There’s so much going on with these. The shells alone weren’t just two cut in half and glued together, it was one with another to extend the rear. I didn’t realize before, but the B is two frames with the motor end bracketed together. The B gets center rail power via RCA jacks plugged A to B, which alone dates this project. Someone put thought into this. Not many modelers finish these kinds of projects anymore.

I bought these in a package deal. I figure $15 each, but there was also a Navy BEEP and some other goodies. Maybe I “paid” less for these if you figure I paid more for the others.
