Rare Republic F-105 Thunderchief Solid Aluminum Toppings Model with stand. For Sale

Rare Republic F-105 Thunderchief Solid polished Aluminum Topping Model with stand and plastic cockpit screen that is often missing with many other models. Per Topping model site, this model was created in 1960, and is one of only 2,500 ever produced.
I am now ailing and need to make room for a smaller home and must, unfortunately part with it. My understanding is that this model sat on the previous owner's desk at the airbase he commanded in the 70's in Enid, but I have no proof other than the story shared with me by his son who was a good friend of mine. I'd like this to go to a good home, to someone, like me, who sees this as the most beautiful of the Century series fighters; in this case, fighter bomber.Any questions, feel free to ask.
