ngohin1, I think you did pretty good with your new Morgans you bought off of e-bay...as long as you don't have to pay too much for shipping. If...
Oh, com'on viper...Give it your best shot! ;) There's nothing like a little practice.
Heck, I don't know...that sounds pretty close to a ton! :rolling: As others have said, get a Redbook for sure. I also recommend checking...
Your second round of pictures definitely make it look a bit nicer. Oh, and the difference between F and VF as far as monetary value is...
