That is awesome. Wonderful job! I have that kit and cant wait to get started on it. You and I have a unique kit here. It is the LAST true MPC tooling before Ertl absorbed them and merged with AMT.

Thanks for the sentiments, popeye! I'll hang onto this one as long as I possibly can! Actually, Jason was my oldest stepson. He was 32 when he passed in 2003.

Thanks, Joe! I sprayed it with a rattle can of TESTORS gloss black enamel. I never put any clear coat on it, and I never polished it! It came out this good, right out of the can!! The only time I've ever done that!!
