M W Elky Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I got this as a started work in progress the body was already painted and decaled so I don’t have much information on the colors or decal maker. Although I think at one time you could get them from Billy gooche. The kit is the johan Sox & Martin kit with resin cast slotted wheels. Other wise it’s all out of the box. Being that I didn’t have to mess with the body this made for a nice easy build. Until next time thanks for looking 👀, Mike 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t already have one good luck getting the revell Sox & Martin kit they’re way too pricey for being a pretty current release. I think the decals are available from Billy gooche while I’m not positive I think his daughter still prints them out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
