    ...I can do color pencil. Mostly locomotives and aircraft so far & some cars, but only drawings... Oils and acrylics would likely be best for cars. I'll bet you would do very well. :-)

    A BIG thanks to YOU, the GT/CS Owner & Enthusiast!

    Thanks Don! If this is a 'can of worms', then I'll simply toss the x-tras in the pond to attract more fish. I have two 351Ws. The first is the original 4v that came w/ the car that ran very strong, but wouldn't keep oil pressure after its 192,000 miles. I replaced it with a 2v motor that...
