OK, I'll demonstrate my advanced age and admit that when I wanted a PR XIX in 72nd years ago, I had to hack up both a MATCHBOX and TESTORS kits to get the stuff to convert into one, now you just squirt glue in one corner of the box and shake for 45 seconds. :?

Nice job on all six kits buddy! :D

And you've done a great job capturing Buds T-6 in it's heyday! :D

You should shoot lots of wheelwell and small stuff details on the '29 next time you're @ HFF.

Thanks! It's a real scheme. Only thing is it's an F-6B instead of a P-51.
