"More Lyle?" That is not what the doc said. He wants less Lyle. Anyway, I heard more from Tamiya CS. Seems the guy did not actually check his stock and doesn't have a VW Bug kit handy, so he has ordered one. Probably two weeks out. Still pretty impressive.

Got a box from Tamiya today. Judging from the size, I’d say it is the wind scree. Yay!

It is waiting for the 109 to get out of the way...and shaking in fear.

I appreciate you folks a lot. Your comments and suggestions, well...except for the one to give it up, are most welcome.
