This one has been on my radar for a long time.
I'm not a big fan of Heller, so I have my doubts. How is the kit?
You have done a great job with it.

@Martin Oostrom - A challenging kit to construct, I think this kit is quite old. but reboxed. Quite a few parts had heavy sink marks and deformations due to poor quality molding. Painting the kit was the most time consuming part since it required multiple masking/painting/masking/painting steps. Side and end panels didn't go together very well, lots of warping issues. Very glad to finish this kit and it's put me off attempting any other Heller kits due to a relatively bad experience with this one.

Thanks Warren. The original kit is from the 70's, so I'm the same age.
Despite the struggle, still a great result!

Very appealing result in spite of the problems you had with the kit. Skill makes good models!
