So its been a long time since I have been on the forum, or touched a model. Moving, work, etc.... But last month I got the bug to build something again. The thing is, so much of my tools and work desk which I use to have all set up are in storage. So I got the basic stuff out and then went to Home Depot and got a scrap piece of wood they had for a buck and pick out a kit to build.

 

It is box stock. I did remove all the chrome minus the wheels and add some BMF. Other than a couple scratch built pieces to help support the roof wing, its box stock. I did have to put in some work making changes to the front axle due to some minor errors the parts cake with. I also had to cut the rear frame off where the top of the rear shocks mount and tweak it so it would go together right. Ok....enough of the boring you!

 

Hopefully the pictures will come out ok on here. If not I will work on it for next time.
