1:1 Scale Snowspeeder (T-47 Airspeeder) build.

- Start date
I wonder what happened to all the full size speeders? Do we know how many were made?
My guess is that only 2 or 3 were made, and only one survived. It was on display for years at the Disney-MGM Studios in Orlando, FL. It was out in the sun and heat and rain every day... Iat one point (? mid 200s?) I remember it was refurbished or at least repainted. but I haven't seen it in years.
