Hi Guys, Today I got an email from Leonard Miller who was the President of Black American racers. A few years ago he contacted me to build him a replica of the 1975 Bennie Scott Lola T-332 F-5000 car in which Viceroy and BAR sponsored. According to Mr. Miller's email, the 1/18th scale replica that I built for him is on its was to the Smithsonian to be part of a display featuring Black American Racers. What a thrill to know that something I built is going to be in the Smithsonian! Stu    Hi Guys,  |

Stu:
Quite the accomplishment! If anybody deserves to be in the Smithsonian, it's you...I love to watch your WIP's...die cast and 1/18th are not my cup of tea, but I love to see your stuff...there are people all over the country that appreciate your skills...
