The winning bit was something crazy like $7 or something. Damn!
When I worked up the hill from the Air Force Museum I used to spend at least one lunch hour a week in there. The have a B-29 fuselage you can walk through. I remember seeing the "horn buttons" and wondering if it would fit a 356. It's close. One day I went through and it was gone. Wonder if it ended up on ebay.
