There is one good one left in my area https://www.hobbytown.com (Kennesaw, GA)

It's in a gutted old movie theatre so it's pretty large with a massive selection, including a large model selection. Going there today looking for some gifts.

Oh sure NOW I find out. Not during my trips there but now. Will have to schedule a trip to the plants down there once I figure out some excuse to actually go.

Well the Speedfactory got back to me about getting my Bilstiens. Here is what they said after getting a hold of their distributor:


"I finally heard back, they are telling me that these will be arriving at the end of the month. So the first part of Jan. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you "


I ordered in June, and this is about the 3rd "end of month", and I really don't "need" them, so maybe time to give up. I could use the money for other car projects.
