Expecting another box or two...this is all I could fit into the car along with our stuff! Have a friend getting more stuff this next weekend and more to follow as it is discovered. :biggrin: :biggrin: Title: Re: Picked up a few things on vacation Post by: loman4ec on July 17, 2009, 10:03:20 pm Holly Crap :jawdrop: Where did you get those????

A guy in SoCal I bought some stuff off last summer. Called back this trip to bug him a little about all his mechs and we struck a deal. I wouldn't say I got a screaming deal, but it was probably fair to both of us. I don't even know all I bought yet! He has another house with stuff in it and I didn't make it over there, but our deal was for all his mech and rejector related items...even if it is a year from now that he comes across them. I go there every summer and will just get in touch to see what has been found. A friend has a condo near him and usually drives out, so he can bring stuff back here and there too. So far, I got nearly 9 -10 complete LD mechs (81/110's, J-56's, V-44/88's), 4 SD change-giver mechs (3 V-81/110's and 1 V-39), probably 30 LD rejectors and 40 SD rejectors. Also a bunch of parts already plated (see pic) and a bunch of loose parts. He used to restore mechs in the early 90's, but has lost interest. Being that I am restoring them these days, I was his best market for all the stuff. Title: Re: Picked up a few things on vacation Post by: loman4ec on July 17, 2009, 11:47:12 pm Wow that is so cool!
