spankybird,,,,,neat collection of automobiles,,,,Do you happen to play the "'Charleston " song when you run your trains in that era....One of those buildings looks like it could have a dancehall upstairs...I was thinking how neat it would be to have some music comming out of one of those buildings..That layout brings a smile,,,keep up the good work!!

 

 

 

John, thanks for the info,,,Those cars can be at home on any layout from 1909 to the current date..

Very Nice John,

I have had several Model T that were kits, but I bought them after they were already assembled.

Match box collectables also makes some, or did.

Also IXO have made several very nice ones

many of these I have bought from DieCast Direct.

Just got my July RMC and there is a review of these kits.  Reviewers gives the build time as 3 hours before painting.  They look pretty good to me.

This looks to be the only place they can be purchased.  Not an auction, but an ebay store.
