disconovaman Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Fantastic Boxart build... you have replicated what so many others expected to see when they opened the box rather than the Pro-Street kit. I think alot of buyers were disappointed in the contents... I was happy either way. 😁 Come on Round II, reissue this kit! 😆 It really is a good looking model built up. Well done!
