Tommy124 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 (edited) Hi folks, I got this recently from a modelling mate as a built kit amongst other stuff. As we all know, these days these Jo-Han kits come very expensive when bought new, so I took the opportunity to get this one at a very fair price, although it took quite some work because the front quarters had heavy dents on both sides since the kit was new. Of course, repairing those spots meant losing the beautiful "Dart 440" enblems, but that was the price to pay. I sanded down those spots and used Tamiya putty and sandable superglue for filling the dents. Then again sanding to make it fit to the body's contours. The result turned out okay in my eyes. Your feedback, as always, will be appreciated. Edited August 9, 2019 by Tommy124 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Very nice! The scripts in the "dents" were out of scale anyway! A lot of Johan kits had that molding imperfection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
