One of them was a Defiant with a big faded area on the cockpit, like it sat in front of a window and never moved for about a decade.
It was probably my worst show selling stuff and more than likely my last as a dealer. I had a lot of people interested in buying stuff, but I'm not desperate to sell things or practically give things away. I did manage to get some good deals on some Lego stuff. My son is really into those now so it is kind of our thing to do together.
I saw both guys that you are talking about and their vehicles were CRAP! Most weren't even close to being complete or had several broken pieces that couldn't be fixed. I don't mind cleaning dusty vintage vehicles, but those were ridiculous. I was excited to see so many Terror Dromes, Defiants and even a General. But, their conditions were awful. I doubt those two dealers even made enough to pay for their tables.
