1960's original model used in new art.

Just thought some of you guys might get a kick out of this. While the original model is being fixed up over at the Smithsonian, An artist took the time to use it, to replace some old scenes. The result is pretty good if you ask me. Granted, I'm not that big a fan of the JJ stuff, but the original set in ST2 is worth a gander.
