we got some stuff in the mail today. much anticipated to. but were we surprised. Richard added a few cars to the light, rounded out my collection some what.
I have never seen the green and white delco box. remember the black and yellow one but not the green. the NOS shocks were a touch rusty but then so is the 53. they will clean up nicely however. the surprise rattling around in there is a hard thing to find.
but the lesson learned today will stick with me!! if you want to keep them don't clean up you reflector tags in the rust dissolver. I don't know if it was the chemical or the heat. as I had heated the water to speed up the action. but the plastic slid right off. what ever it was they used to adhere it to the tags was a gummy mess on the back side. the rust was gone how ever. some times you get what you ask for.
