1930 Packard Racer

[landman]

I still have several models to repair, redo or reassemble from the box I had found initially. I had made this speedster out of the Metal Master 1930 Packard kit. It had a broken front axle, no windshield, several loose pieces. I am planning to wire the engine, add a few details and make it a Brooklands screen. Unless there are some available on the aftermarket.

Turning the model upside down, these fell out of the cockpit. I guess I had the Brooklands screen idea way back when.

The Boss' Packard speedster was in for a tuneup and a going over. It is ready for his next season or Sports Car Club activities.
