Rich- Where in Brooklyn did you find the gas station with the larger Shell sets? Also, what dollar amount of gas did you have to buy in order to get the sets? Is there a limit on the number of sets you can buy? Jonathan- Where are you going to go (...)

That's 1246-1251, the larger sets are 1252-1256 - the same sets released in SoCal last year (that I took a roadtrip from NoCal for JUST to pick a ton up!). I think I'm going to buy a ton IF I can find them locally (they don't seem to like to carry (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jun-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.promo, lugnet.general, lugnet.town)

I've made rear-mount towers in the past, but in order for them to fit in the stations, the bucket has to pretty much cover the front window, so I went with the mid-mounts. I like the mid-mounts because they allow the trucks to get closer to the (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-01, to lugnet.town)
