[NW Mailing List]

My Proto 2000 Y3s came with conversion parts so that the model could be
upgraded to the configuration of 2033, which I chose to do.  I bought
"undec" versions as I wanted to (and did) decal the for my freelance model
rr, so I don't know of the conversion parts were included with all of them.
