I think it was Monogram that made the really big 1/8 scale model of the E-type Jaguar coupe in yellow and a 63-67 Corvette coupe in orange. I was a kid back in the early 70's when I built the model of the E-type. All went well and the last thing to install was the windshield.
I had glue on my fingers and totally screwed up the windshield. I was beside myself.
So I wrote a letter to Monogram pleading for a new windshield, stuck a 5 dollar bill in the envelope with the letter and mailed it off to them.
A couple weeks later I received a small box that contained a new windshield wrapped up in tissue paper and my 5 dollar bill.
I've still got that model, been meaning to find a local guy with an E-type coupe to give it to.
EDIT: Better yet might be worth finding a guy with an E-Type that has a nice pair of used SSI's for my 911 to trade! WOW!
