A quick trip to Wal-mart yielded an MGA an MGB and a
bugeye. Thanks for the tip. They also have an XK and a
triumph. Sam's club members should keep an eye on the
larger die cast models at the store. I haven't seen
any MG's, but the selection keeps changing and they're
a bargain at about 10 clams. The same brand costs
about 30 clams mail order.
