Trev. Very nice job you have made so far with this one. Getting those sides correct is not easy (which is why mine has gone back into the "to do pile") but yours looks top notch. Hope all continues well. Tony Happy Modelling

Hi Tony, When your building aircraft for most of your life then you change to something like this model it will make you think, I do wish there were more Stagecoach builds, it is a lovely model, and cost wise won't break the bank.

Trev Trev Must admit i am keen to start but not wanting to jump in and find i end up with another part build (time is never on my side). One of the rrasons i have a few of the deagostini screw together kits running at the moment. I was given the amati stage as well and watched a really good user build of that one on youtube prior to Christmas. Hope yours continues well and will be interested to read up on your wheel build as that spoke shaping looks difficult. Will have a proper read through your build diary on this one Tony Happy Modelling
