Has anyone been able to find one in stock at their local store in WI or northern IL. I'm located in Kenosha. TRU has one (1) in Racine, but it's really beat up, and full price. I've called a ton of stores already. Thanks in advance. travis (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.loc.us.wi)

Hello everybody, You must see this site. These are Black Cat wheels based LEGO trucks (Scania, DAF, Peterbilt etc). Unfortunately he doesn't build trucks anymore. Therefore he constructs 1:24 scale trains instead. The URL is: (URL) fun! Dennis (22 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.modelteam)
