Somehow every once in a while, my sister seems to find them in Goodwill stores in her area in Maryland.

I found 2 kits at Goodwill within the last several months. Maybe 4-5 over the last 10 years. They get scooped up pretty fast, but are few and far between too. I haven't seen any at yard sales in years. Kit prices are ridiculous now because people are willing to pay too much for them.

If you can't fix it with duct tape, you're not using enough duct tape.

I do remember that one and for a while wanted it. How much detail does that thing have in the cab Brandon?

As much as I love cabovers, I only have the International Transtar. I wish I had the K100 or Aerodyne, but those are expensive kits. I have no idea what the interiors look like as I haven't put one together yet.
