This is a neat kit (despite problems) I still like it.... thanks for sharing...

I swear, this hobby is trying its best to tell me it doesn't want me around... But I'm too stubborn to listen.    My bonnie project has been put on hold.  As I've said before, I wanted to get this done for my dad in time for Christmas.. Well last weekend, out of the blue, one of the PE parts I ordered decided it had better things to do than to be put on this model, so it took a hike...  It wouldn't have been such a big deal except that I had already modified the plastic part from the model to fit the piece. and it just happens to be one of the main dash trim pieces.  So it is on hold for the time being until I get around to ordering another set of PE from modelcargarage.

 

 

If you can't find it, PM me and I'll make sure I've got my chrome tree from this kit. It actually builds up really nice, and goes together easy. Good call on the MCG photo-etch. The biggest drawback to the Trumpeter kits I've found is the badging sucks. I've got to get a new set of PE for mine. I somehow managed to drop both of the P's from the front.

  I remember you saying you needed some letters from this PE kit..  Check your messages...

 

 

thanks-epi

I had the same issue with the PE set.  Somehow managed to drop both of the "P"'s for the nose, so I just stopped.  Right now my Bonneville just has "ONT" on the nose because I was afraid to drop anything else.
