Model a News/Restorer Articles on 3X Plugs
 

Some years ago there were several excellent technical articles on the 3X plugs. I recall one covering all the variations of the plugs over the four years and another with restoration. I'd like to review these but I can't find an index. Does anyone remember when they were published or have an index? Many thanks.
