Wow, definitely one of their older kits. Their 1:72 kits were like that in the 80s/ early 90s.

It looks like the San Pablo from the movie, Sand Pebbles.The USS The Buchanan, a 4 stack Wicks-class destroyer launched in 1919, and one of the 50 lend-lease destroyers provided to the Royle Navy in 1940. The Buchanan was renamed HMS Campbeltown and used in the St. Nazaire Raid, loaded up with explosives and ramming and destroying the drydock there.
This is the old Revell kit I started years ago. I had the deck and some of the superstructure done when paint spilled over the foredeck. I didn't see it until it was well hardened and glued down to my work bench. when trying to pull it up from the bench the foredeck snapped off and I lost interest.
I pulled it out last week and repaired and repainted the deck and put the hull together adding the deck, the stacks and the remainder of the superstructure.
Still a lot of fiddly bits to go but it's moving along once again.

It must have been 7 or 8 years ago. When I gave up on it I put it back in its box and put the box back in the stash. Last week I was digging in the drawer where I keep my decals and found one of the instruction sheets way in the bottom, so I pulled the kit down to put it away and decided to start in on it again.I'm amazed you still had it kicking around, I don;t have storage for such luxuries. How long ago was the paint spill Glenn.
