This antique kit offered some challenges but nothing horrible. The biggest challenge was the fact that at some point since 1964, the tires rested against the glass and left some deep chemical gouges. A lot of sanding, from 600 up to 12,000, followed by all three Tamiya compounds and the two finest NOVUS products.
Getting all the hinges straightened out was probably the biggest challenge.
Overall I've done better; the paint took a beating in the final assembly and should have turned out better.
What's next? Not sure, stay tuned! But it was good to take a break from the killer 917K.
