Ooh! I started one of these WAAY back when but could never get beyond using garden hose for the engine wiring. I'll check it out.

I made half a dozen of these Tamiya kits over 40 years ago (that's a scary thought) but this particular kit was always eluded me. It was however the first kit I bought when I took the hobby back up in 2013 after a 15 year hiatus. Slow progress but so far so good 🤞

Looks great, Scott!

Your tools in photo 5...I've built a few kits where I feel that hammer might have come in handy, as well! 😉😂

That's so funny. That picture was taken over 10 years ago! My workbench has changed beyond recognition since then.

Spookily I retrieved this very kit from the bin recently after chucking it in anger due to the shitty Vallejo metal colours... thank goodness I didn't think of the hammer option!
