Just found a couple of rare military models in the Dallas area. One is a factory metal SAAB fighter and the other a factory Hiller/LTV XC-142 in army colors. Any interest?

Here is another of a few new models I just got before amd after. The pitting on the chrome was so bad that it couldn't be salvaged. I removed the one engine that came on it and will replace with others. I also had to strip all the paint and decals so if anyone hase a nice set in 1/144 scale please let me know.
