Here is the link to CSX1018...being delivered tomorrow to its new owner! |
Is the car staying local?
If so, is he an owner locals might know? |
Yes, the car is a local car...the owner is in LA...and no, I cannot disclose his name.
CSX1017 that we just delivered last month is also a local...he is a bit north of LA... We are trying to arrange a photo shoot with both of them...CSX1017 is Royal Blue/White Stripes...and CSX1018 is the exact opposite color combination...so...it would make a great picture! |
Question: If there are only 12 of these CSX1000 series cars, why are they into #17 and #18? Are the chassis not in sequence? Are the post #12 cars not bodied by AC?

LMH,
You can still order CSX1000 series cars. Actually...number 21 and 22 are being completed in Vegas as we speak. "Believe only half of what you read on here" |

AC tin-benders are long gone from UK. Weren't they built by a third party body shop in UK? |
