Phil Sellati would prolly like to KILL me... About 10 yrs ago, I "Stole" an R-390A that was in his personal stash... It is a 1955 production Collins set, w/all Collins modules...Rick Mish, the "Guru" of R-390A restorations, flipped over it, offered me $5K or 2 of his "Museum Grade" restored sets for it...All I know is that they procured it locally, Rick thought they might have got it from Wright-Pat, where it had perhaps been Somebody's Baby & lived a very easy life. I gave $700 for it, which was double the going rate for an unrestored R-390A back then. Anyway, tell Mr Sellati that "His" R-390A is being well & lovingly cared for...(grin)
