Album info

This is the rerelease of the old 1:8 scale kit. It is an old kit so it was a little rough getting parts of it together. The vinyl tires were the worst part. They were not molded very well. The sidewalls on one side were much thicker than the other so the wheels would sag to one side or the other. I ended up wrapping sheet styrene around the hub to bulk it up and then I cut holes in the tires and filled them with epoxy. The last picture is to give an idea of how much larger the kit is than my usual 1:12 kits.
