The Seafarer (prototype) went to a better place . . . to be described later.
sometime soon, I will do a write-up describing the current approach to the collection. I am preferring the "origins of the species", so the Viceroy and Sifferts get the nod over the later derivatives of the Autavias. The 5100's are also keepers. Add the IDF Autavias, and that will likely be the core of my collection. Thus, the Silverstone and Daytona don't fit into the scheme. Of course, there are excpetions to all this . . . the earliest Autavia, the Abercrombie guys, a couple of three-register "no-names" (pre-Carrera) and the Fliegers . . . How does that sound for a reasonable collection?
