Great job Glenn, it looks bril. Is it really 1943, or should that read 1933 ?

Beautiful work! I loved the clever axle fix you did. Great paint and the scratch gun tubes were inspired also.

Beautifully done!

 

[T Bolt]

Thank you much guys it is appreciated!

And that is a typo Terry. Should read 1934 and has been corrected. It wouldn't have been very fun taking one of those on a ground attack mission in 1943
