grebal Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Hey Robert, sweet thread, again. Hope you have a great New Year buddy. Liked your upgrade on the FF 45 the other day - must be getting pretty close to having only a handful of single-digit issues remaining on the run. !

Happy New Year Greg, hope Santa was kind to you ....I always ask him for comics, for some reason I get socks instead.... actually now that you mention it I only need an FF 10 now, used to have a lower grade copy, sold it to get bills paid, I've basically been rebuilding and chasing a few upgrades...when that's done I think I'm going to try and rebuild my JIM run habsfan1, Djohnson321, jimjum12 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
