This was a fun project that I started a good few months ago. All now completed and it will be off to a new home next week. These old Pocher kits are challenging at times but the end results are quite nice. A pity nobody makes these kinds of classics in 1/8 scale any more. roymattblack attached the following image(s):

Looks great Roy, and I agree, it is a shame they don’t make kits like the old Pochers any longer. -Dustin
