His email: renax@sharkit.com Tell him I sent you! ;) AT beatlepaul 10-26-2005, 11:39 AM Thanks sir. I just E-Mailed them. Hopefully they can help me out!

I'm sure he would let you measure and photograph it. beatlepaul 10-26-2005, 06:55 PM If you live in or near Los Angeles, the guy who owns the original keeps it out at Flabob airport in Riverside.
