      Best of British with it, I've been given a few kits similar to that, and asked anything I could do with it and most of my replies have been said. Jim

          Got some work done, striped the wheels and re-painted, also the spinner and props. And filled the gaps.

            If I were you, i'd turn it into a crash landing diorama, then you can get away with not having all the decals or if bits are missing

                  Good idea Alex, I'm going to see what it looks like when I've completed it, to see if it needs crashing or not.

                    It's certainly a classic - I can see the raised detail from here.

                          Well Ive got the seam lines sorted, also fitted the canopy and door. A rather large gap at the bottom, but the filler will sort that out. It's now time to re-scribe the lost detail.
