Do you have the Address and phone?  I can't think of any Shell stations in
Burlington at the moment.  If I can confirm the sets are available, I will
make a side trip next time I'm at my parents in Elon.  There is a Shell on
70 between Greensboro and Elon.  Whitsett maybe?  Very country... I can
check there too, but I don't have much hope.  There is one Shell on Market
street about a mile and a half f/me.  It is more of a minimart than a gas
station, but I'll check.

I think there a couple  of Shell stations in Winston-Salem.  Maybe Terry,
from Bricks by Terry at Brickbay,  erector@triadntr.net  would be worth
contacting?  I don't see him post and have only been in contact with him a
couple of times in relation to purchasing items, but he seemed very nice and
his creations via his website http://www.triadntr.net/~erector/  are awesome.

Do you know what sets are being offered and at what price.  This has most
likely been mentioned before, but i can't seem to pull it together this morning.

I can pick them up if they can be found near me.
