gasser59 Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 After many years, and I mean years, of working on this and putting it back in the box because of obstacles, I'm happy to report this one is finally done. AMT body, Wild Willy engine, 'Z'ed frame, printing plate floor boards, PE aircraft-style seats from Wild Hare, plumbed, wired and almost everything else. Comments always welcome. There's also a build thread under WIP if you want to see the process. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phildaupho Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Great rendition of a classic kit which I built when it was first released over 60 years ago. Yours is infinitely better !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanMuscleFan Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Superb Brad ! Whatever obstacles you may have encountered, the end result is first class and the assembly is impeccable. This hobby is not a race, the important thing is to cross the finish line and be satisfied with the result. You can be proud, the attention to detail is the first impression that comes out of your work. Well done!!! 👌 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
