Renegade

Don't know the value of the kit, IMHO kits were meant to be built. The only reason I wouldn't build it if I was using it for an investment for sale later. That being said, the ultimate decision is up to the person who owns it. Know this doesn't help much, but just one mans opinion. I'm sure others will weigh in on this topic.

Great looking build.

With your paint skills and photography. I would be hard pressed to say its not a 1;1 real 41.

Very nice. I had an Uncle that had one back in the day. Brings back good memories.

Will post a couple of pics when she gets home. Everyone on the forum are a great bunch of people. Thanks for all your concern.

Update on Cinnamon, the vet called and said she in doing fine. She has no problem being a Tripod and getting around fine. She loves the people at the vet and will recieve lots of love when she gets home tomorrow . Thanks for your concern and good wishes.

Beautiful weather unless I have to drive in it.

Always been a Force fan even before the championships. That being said, maybe It"s time for retirement and to rest on his laurels With his daughters It's a Great legacy.

A very nice period correct build. Great job.

While not really an irk but my little dog Cinnamon got into a fight with my beagle April and Cinnamon suffered a broken leg. The leg has to be amputated. She is in good spirits and doing well. We have a very good vet and they love Cinnamon. She will be home tomorrow. My vet sends me updates and pictures so every thing is going great so far.

Strange color, but it works. Very nice build.

Problem solved.

Amazing save, looks spot on.

Beautiful build. Great color and love the red lines.

Sad to say, but I remember the show as well as the kit. Great start on this one.

On my wish list. Thanks to you I now have two on that list. Knew I was gonna build a stock one but now I must build the drag version. Great build.

Welcome aboard. Hope we see some of your builds.

Good to see the next generation of modelers keeping the hobby alive.

Went to HL today for a can of paint. Saw the 57 gasser on the top shelf but not marked down. Saw it the other day but didn't do anything about it. Today I asked the employee who opened the paint case if it had been overlooked. He said yes and marked it down to $5.99 for me. Already had one but couldn't pass it up at that price. Already going to build the gasser and I think the other will be a stock panel wagon. Ramcharger was still there and I started to get it but doesn't really interest me. All fire trucks were gone. Can't wait to see what fills the empty slots.

Would like to see more trailers, especially the doubles and someone to offer the CF decal set for the tractor and trailer.

Great addition to the fleet. Nice work.

Mailman showed up with a Coke Pete, Tyrone Malone hauler, RM Ford dually and two cans of Testors Guard red paint I needed for my fire trucks. HL used to stock this color but no more. My first mail order ever but I guess the times are changing. Still have more on my wish list.

My only choices are HL or mail order. I do miss the hobby stores of my youth.

The ones by my house had the clearance kits in the model section. Probably wouldn't have noticed the markdowns if I hadn't seen it on this thread.

Very nice build. Really like the Texas license plate.
