Very nice build, looks well worn like the 488 Squadron
aircraft ended up being.

If you are interested in RNZAF History in Singapore, a great
book to read is "Last Stand in Singapore" by Graham Clayton.

Excellent book, great photos and blow by blow history of
488 Squadron's fight to defend Singapore, and most importantly
the Buffalo fighter they flew and maintained

Thank for sharing

Incredibly nice job on an old sow's ear kit.
Love to see the oldies getting built. There's not many of us left that'll give 'em a go.
