Here is my latest on the bench. I wound up with two built up Monogram Little Deuces after the Feb club meeting. I also bought a couple new kits and when I got home I was checking them out and one of them was the Revell/Monogram Basic Builder 32 roadster. Yaaay.... I have THREE of them now... Well, I figured I'd make some lemonade.
I wasn't too happy with the frame and fenders being a whole unit so I had to do some thing about that....
Once the fenders were gone, the frame was really thin in a few places. Of course, Had to clean that up too...
Since I'm starting with a recent issue kit and I'm using an older issue engine, I had to redo the engine mount configuration...
The reason all this madness started was this mill, as found, with the 73 issue builtup:
I'm only going to wire it up and blackwash it. No need to mess up a good find.
More to come.
