Visiting Amish country over July 4th, I stopped in at my favorite antique mall and scored this 7-11 building for $12. I think I have a few 7-11 trucks as well, so I can set this up realistically.

Did this building have an interior or floor? Came with nothing but what you see here. Just curious.

OH! So jealous of ya! I don't believe a floor came with this and you're missing the tall and separate road side sign.

I actually got a "7-11" convenience store to go with it! By Life-Like, BUT mine was assembled before I got it and isn't in the greatest of condition. But, I plan at some point to refurbish it as I have been some others I been building!
Nice find tho Jerry!

| That's cool. Some of those old plastic kits have pretty fine detail.
