Title: PT-19's with Evolution engines at The Prop Shop,,
Post by: Paul Smith on May 12, 2009, 07:13:50 AM
The Prop Shop in Centerline, Michigan has two of these on the shelf.

If you live within driving distance, don't pay postage to a mail order house.  The Prop Shop gives s club discount and has non-mailables tuff like fuel, paint, and glue.

In addition to their overwhelming RC inventory, they have  a nice CL corner an plenty of generic "all model" supplies.

Ahhh!! The Prop Shop, I still find hardware and stuff with their price tags on it in my stash, and I haven't been there since '94-'95.  I used to stop in on my way home from working the 3rd shift at Detroit Metro when I lived in Roseville.  Good shop with some real modelers working there.

Also frequented Anchor Boat and Hobby, and Ryders up that way.

Anchor Bay and Ryders are gone now. But Matt is doing an excellent job and routinely beats Tower's online prices by way more than the shipping costs. A local hobby shop doing it very well. His inventory is huge. A shop well worth supporting and our last good one on the east side of Detroit.

Right!

The Prop Shop is sort of like Cabella's, a destination store, one you actually travel to, vs passing on the way someplace else. 

They do, in fact, have a LOT of props.
