Drifterdon Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Superb build Pete. I love these old Italeri/ESCI kits. They really capture the look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drifterdon Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I have a spare but shipping to Australia would cost more than the kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the offer. but I'll wait. I was asked by ex Army pilots what it would be worth to build for them. Good question. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
