Peter, If you have assembled one and engineered it, I would be most happy to pay you to write the instructions and illustrate them for an SAL B-6. I would be delighted to have the shop package kits. Somewhere I have the SAL lettering diagram for those cars and can probably do up decal art pretty easily. If time becomes a real problem, I'll just pay someone to do the art.
