cobraman Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Just finished this one up . The yellow pic is what I started with . Lots of pieces either broke or missing . Replaced several parts from my parts box. Painted Tamiya Metallic Green and cleared with Duplicolor 1K clear. Not perfect but good enough to have a place in one of my cabinets . Now on to the second on I bought . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happy grumpy Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 beautiful save. I like it when a model can have a second lease on life. A good side effect to recycling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Ray, May I ask which AMT kit this is. I was thinking king Cobra? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted October 20, 2021 Author Share Posted October 20, 2021 Thank you Carl. It seems like it had to be the King Cobra version. I suspect by the pieces the original builder used that it was the original version from years ago and not the newest one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
