Curt Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 That's a beautiful model and your pictures make me think I'm looking at a 1:1.
bonehead23 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Wow...I am wondering where you got this model! In 1970 I was in the Army, stationed at Fort Huachuca, Arizona...I got around on a Yamaha 125, but a friend had a '64 Caliente with the 289 hi-po...exactly the same color as your model except without the race graphics of course. This was truly a deja-vu moment for me!!!! Several GI's would pile into that Comet every weekend and burn rubber (and reefers) all the way to Tucson.....
rickcaps55 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Awesome it came out great I am a big fan of the Comet's and the 64 and 66 are two of the big one's on my list. I have the 64 and just got a AMT org kit on the 66 at a privet sale the kit is like new all the parts are still on the tree's I got for a steel $35.00 I have seen them for 3 or 4 times that on ebay and other model sites that handel old kit's.
