Gentlemen !<br>
<br>
Saw your conversation about the Mercury Liberty Bell Capsule. I have been<br>
quite into the Space Program for years. I get the impression one of you are<br>
planning on building a Replica or Simulator of this item. I may have a full<br>
set of drawings on the Mercury Capsule, plus other information.<br>
<br>
If I could possibly be of help, feel free to drop me a line.<br>
<br>
