JohnB Posted September 15 Posted September 15 This will be my 3rd Bardahl Special build. This time it's in the "original" markings in 1967. My others were for later years so I think this one will go well with them. I'm using the Revell kit with Draw Decals. 4 1
JohnB Posted Tuesday at 08:39 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 08:39 PM Due to way too many fit problems this SOB is now on the SOD. I've built a number of these Revell P-51 kits and all have had some fit problems but this one takes the cake. Hardly anything fits! It must have come off the very end of the production line. I'll leave it on the SOD until I'm ready to start pulling my hair out again. On to something else! 1 1
JohnB Posted Friday at 07:16 PM Author Posted Friday at 07:16 PM Now that I've had a few days away from this build I decided to go on and get it done. The fit of the wings to the fuselage was the BIG problem. I did some trimming and sanding to finally get them to attach as near to correctly as possible. Still was a bear but some CA application got them to stay in place. Now for some more sanding and the addition of some white putty, etc. and MAYBE I can get to look "presentable". 3
