Phil MarcheseDave, I built this in the late 60s and changed the nose art in the early 90s. It was moderately damaged in my last move and, while, repairable, it.has not been so. Today I would use the Cobra enhancement for the Matchbox/Revell Privateer. I helped with the research on the Cobra PB4Y-2. I ve used the unique form conversion twice. It seems one of the nacelle conversion pieces has a flaw that pitches it upward a few degrees.

Dave FlittonAh, good to know. I do have the Cobra enhancement but I do not have the model. I thought I would use the conversion on an Academy PB4Y-1
