Well worth your time either way, the visit or the hobbies.
ebay has a lot of old models, where I got all 3 mentioned, from collectors that quit for whatever reason and a liquidator.....nic-nac store type thing, buys them out and unloads on ebay.
I learn something on everything I do and each one has a history of challenges that makes you remember it and gives you a platform to handle the next set of them.
I just finished a 1941 1/25 scale Ford "woodie" station wagon that dad had when I was a kid. This one could be built either stock or as a hot rod. I already had a 1940 Chevron (tail light) black Ford coupe like my grand dad had early on but I kept it stock.
