This is an aborted attempt to build a BQ23 about 3 or 4 years ago .. I think this one goes into the dumpster

no, don't do that - put it on eBay and be surprised how much some people are willing to pay for this piece...
...just be sure you put only blurry pictures in your auction  ;)

John,

Add some fire effects and stick it in an 89' flat car and use it as a yard ornament as a wreck in tow. Would be an interesting model to look at.

Yeah! Bend up the front handrails, weather the cab and one side with a little mud, rip out the trucks and drive train (and add to parts bin) and put it up on wood blocking with chain tie downs on a flat, similar too

John,
I'd be glad to take that "aborted attempt" off your hands for you. ;)

John,

I don't know what camera you are using, but my Nikon records all the settings for each picture I take.  Yours may have the same feature.

If you find the photo in Windows Explorer, right click on it and go to Properties, then click on the summary tab and it will give you all of the settings used to take that picture.  You can probably use Picassa to figure it out too, but I don't have it installed right now to figure that out.

I know what's wrong with the picture ...

Someone used a "C" instead of a "B". It will still upset Lee, but it would then have far more street cred.
