1/32 Scale Cobra Coupe - Lindberg - race car plastic model
For beginners. A very simplistic kit. More along the lines of a toy than a
scale model.
No real mechanical detail. Made to snap together and be held together with
one screw (included).
Has gears to push like a friction toy. Box has some damage to one end.

A master modeler could probably do something with this as the
body molding is fairly good.

Bruce,
I'd be nice if you prefix your subject line with Ebay so those of us not
interested in going to ebay don't have to open your posts.

Just a suggestion for common courtesy.

You don't see the cgi.ebay.com in the link?

You bet your sweet beepie I saw the link - IN THE POST ONCE I OPENED IT ! ! !
I want him and all other Ebay posters to put it in the SUBJECT of the post.
Check the original post, there is nothing in the subject line to indicate that
it is an advertisement for something he wants to sell.

Sorry for the shouting.

All Bruce Duty posts are for eBay items. Just killfile Bruce Duty and
you won't see the posts at all.
If you don't want to killfile him, just don't open messages by Bruce Duty.
Simple.

Bill,
I don't want to start a pissing war, but to killfile Bruce would be to take the easy
way out and play the game his way. If he has not learned to use the internet after
all these years, he should be chastised and reminded that this is a world community
and he has to play by the rules. Akin to adult content in posts and off topic
posts, where you prefix your post with ADULT or OT, he HAS to prefix his with eBay.
I believe that there is something referencing this in the FAQ, if not, it should be
added.

Your advice to not open posts by Bruce are well taken for the rms group. However,
when he posts in the binaries group, you expect to see a picture there regardless of
who posted it, that is where I have a problem with not prefixing his posts for
content.

My four cents.

...Bruce never adds anything to his headers that would prevent anyone
from knowing he's hawking his junk. Which is why I killfiled him.
