New unfinished Original Schumacher CAT
Picked this up over the weekend, needs to be put together correctly and all the leaxan edges trinmed and cleaned up.
I was amazed to find this one new un finished locally.

Wow. My all-time favorite car. Nice find.
If you ever want to unload it, I'm regretting selling my collection of CAT stuff.

Did he have any other cars headed to the trash can that you bought?

There was a gold tub with it but I passed on it. I was happy with the CAT.

Ya I feel your pain, but it does feel good not to be a slave to the collection. I wish I still had my 1/8 onroad PB collection and 1/10 PB collection. But those feeling pass....

That's an awesome find, very well done. It does seem to be the way that the best examples are those which people accidentally stumble on.....hidden treasures which quite often the owners have no idea how sought after they are.
Doug - apologies for taking your CAT stuff away from you. They did go to a very warm and welcoming home though.....
