O.k. I just reread it $49.95 . A little pricey but at least you don't have to put the LEDs yourself. If they are discounted a little ,I'm in!

Hmmmm........

Lets see.......die cast car from Rite Aid on sale $5. Two pre-wired 12 volt LED's 50 cents. One hour max labor.....free. $5.50 vs $50.....fine if you can afford it.

Agreed....40 Ford is tough at $5. But I have about 50 vehicles ready for the layout and I have a rule that none could cost over $15 each....'41 Fords, 48 Fords, lots of 50's pick ups. 49 Ford coupes. Many GM, Packards, Hudson......you just have to look.  

PS the Packard is a Rite Aid 1/48 at most stores now. If you have a store near check.....big sale because of Wallgreens purchase. 

So $15.50 is still a deal compared.

Thanks for the tip Dave I am on it!  I think I found a bunch of old Studebaker's this way.
