Well if that is the kit I am thinking about, not a good kit to today standers. But with some care and time builds up to an good looking kit. Now the chrome side trim is great and other pieces in this kit are great. I have built a few of these over the 35 years. By the way where are you from in Canada.
I bought this kit last year on my way to NNL East, could not find it anywhere in my area in Canada. Anyway looking forward to see how this kit goes together and any trouble you might have, so far looks great.
I have been building for the last 40 years or so and have been lucky enough to have built models from many different companies, I personally feel Tamiya is the best fitting.
