being used & can send pictures if you would like.


Thanks, Chevyman. I no longer need any more photos, although I still collect serial numbers for my database as I come across them. All of my research has been published at the following link. There is quite a bit of information, both historical and descriptive. I interviewed the former president of the company numerous times, he edited the manuscript until we were happy. He still owns all the molds and tooling, but there are no plans to manufacture anything. Dennis
