You can only get the model from Bay shore systems.

Sorry about the quick response Remko and thank you for the comment but trying to type on my iphone is not easy.

To answer your question there is no price as of yet and as I stated before Bay shore systems may carry a small run of them if we can get this off the ground.

And as far as my English or Grammar at 47 it is what it is Wink but thank you for the comments all of them.

Mike

Hello guys just seen this post crop up and the story behind the parts to date went like this ,,, allot of time and work and most of my own expense went into getting the model to this point and I really wanted it to be as accurate as can be I am not an engineer and sometimes miss several important key components and just over all design, When sent to Bay shore for review when they observed it they wanted some changes because of some detail that was not correct and I agreed but could not go any further with out some major backing and so it is in a box some where with the rest of my hair brain ideas lol. I envy many builders and always enjoy seeing how much talent you gentleman have thus being one of the reasons I still visit the forum just to get a glimpse of the incredible customs.

I am still chomping on the bit to do more but it will have to be something unique and fun and easily funded

PS: Doing models from just a few photos with out a scale set of working drawings is very hard and takes so many hours for an armature but if anyone has any suggestions I may consider it
