  Re: 2555 Shell Belville set
 
(...) I have already seen the Ferrari F1 out. I got 2 of them at a station on the east side of San Jose. That station had the Belville set a few weeks ago, but now they are gone. Probably because now I have the money to buy it. :) Russell (24 years ago, 30-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
