Here is another view. I only paid $25 for it, so if it arrives looking this nice, I will be very happy! (These pics are from the ebay listing) |

Glad to have you with us! And yes, the late model Convertible is a great start for your collection, and I'm sure there will be many more to follow! The rest of the guys who have posted on this thread have pretty much covered all the bases, so I'll just say "ditto" to what they've all said and again, welcome! Jeff |

I don't know where in the area you are, but I live in the burbs, not far from the Woodfield Mall. Here is a little sample of my collection: Drop me a line if you like. |

In addition to a nice Convertible model 31 or 65, I would love to find a model 29. They are really nice looking! How long was the 29 made? They look stunning! |
