Rod, Beautiful job on a huge build.  The NMF is terrific, well done!  Nice work on the interior and the details (like the pin-up poster!) and the wheel chocks. Beautifully done through and through.

Very Nice Rendition you have accomplished there Rob ...what kit though?

Wow, cool photos, which make your splendid build look alive. Paintjob and weathering look so real.

Cheers Rob
