Default Contemporary Classic Build Video

Guess what I have guys.........

Thanks to "Rick Currington" for this old school video!

Rick has sent me a VHS of a Contemporary build. I plan to convert it to DVD so we can all enjoy the video. The video quality is good and very vintage. Once I have watched it I will set out to draft copies to those interested. It will give me a winter project....

THANKS AGAIN TO Rick Currington!
