Lil Coffin - now 'Under Glass'

[slusher]

Love the color and wheels Paul. Everything looks great. This is a kit I hope to buy and build someday...

Very nice!

Thanks for the kind words Carl. The kit is not for the fainthearted, my version dates back to 2000 and suffers from warpage and purple plastic. Some parts are quite tricky. For example, the rear window has mounting tabs that extend to the 'glass'. I removed these, sanded and polished the glass, only to discover that the window is smaller than the opening (I used some clear acetate instead). There are mounting pins on the rear radius rods, but no holes for them etc....

Still, I fancy another kit too, as a stock build to replace my old, warped 1990's version at the beginning of this thread.
