That's cool, thanks for posting. This shop is about 2 miles from my place

I am so envy! Does the shop still exist?

Not in the capacity it used to be in. Sheldons had way more stock in the back than they ever displayed on their shelf. A couple of years ago ron sheldon sold it off to a local hobby store magnet. His son runs the shop now. They don't have a quater of what sheldons used to stock

i remember the old sheldon's catalogs i use to get. hot babes in bikinis holding a blackfoot or avante. that was the best hobby shop to goto. i got my first parma vette body from them. ran into joel johnson there too. i think he still lives down the road in campbell.

my buddy's dad is good friends with the sheldons. he got his first rc10 and gear from them (cheap!). not soon after i got mine as well. i would say it WAS the best walk in and mail order hobby shop in the nation.

you should see that one in color! she was on one of the catalogs in full color. i think she has a blackfoot sitting on a rock in front of her.
