Old Matchbox P51 Kit in realy bad shape. It was very close to the dustbin but I decided to join this group build using it. The idea was cleaning it to the bones and build it like I use to when I was 10 with no paint at all. Unfortunately the plastic lost is original color so I painted it with the kit plastic collors (as close as possible). Also the undercarriage was broken so I got one original stand and put it on. I think I will make a few more.

Nice idea, specially with these funny flashing plastic colors of the first Matchbox era 🥳

Thank you guys for the coments. I`m happy mostly because I found a way to give a new life to these match kits. I`ll use some putty were needed and paint them with an almost gloss finnish color similar to the plastic color. Also I´ll use the stands to show them in flight . By the time I`ve build them those stands were never been used.
