Honda CB750F Engine Tamiya 1/6th box of parts

[DougS]

I've always wanted this kit but couldn't justify the price. But then I found a box of parts on e-bay and after studying all the pictures thought it looked fairly complete. I won the auction fairly cheap and after inventorying found it was missing the base, right side cover, one exhaust clamp and the intake manifolds. It had a few modifications like velocity stacks instead of the air box and the wheel spokes had been removed. I made new pieces to replace everything missing and was about to make a wooden base when I noticed an old cycle license plate on the work bench. The plate turned out to be the perfect size and made the whole project unique in my opinion.

I have always tried to find incomplete models or glue-bombs to get get the models I wanted for as cheap as possible (I've always been a cheapskate, I guess I get it from my Dad always trying to get a bargain..
