Hey guys, figured i'd share this little journey with everyone. I was on the hunt for one of these kits for some time, but given their age and rarity finding one for a decent price can be a challenge. I built 2 when I was in the early teens, or shall I say "ruined" so I thought buying a built kit and restoring it would be more redeeming.
When I first got it, I was a little overwhelmed on how bad it was... But I separated and organized all the parts I would be keeping and got started.
Thick brushed on paint.
Body paint is surprisingly OK, but the decals were peeling badly.
