A lot better the born to be wild decal alone was worth it

The red is a much better match looks Awesome

I want one .....
Too nice

I sprayed the lights while I was doing some other bits ... 6 months in, this resto continues apace

The spray job on the body looks amazing jonny,the deeper red decals certaily do look the bees wax fella.

I also must finish my Falcon resto with the lams but I do not feel, I'm lazy.

After finding a good condition front train I decided to go back on my falcon.

Time I finally dismantled the Falcon ... I'm quite a bit less enamoured with it now, it was clearly built by a cack-handed eejit - splits due to over-tightening, parts twisted off sprue etc, the top of the gearbox is the worst - the other side has been badly filed so it could close up without the sprue remnant being removed There's also some melting going on around the spur gear. Shocks will be ok after a clean & rebuild.
The big ultrasonic tank was a bit of an indulgence, but getting a whole chassis tub in make it seem more reasonable.

Made some new hubs from nylon bar ... they look a bit better now I've polished them

I will receive another falcon to end my resto and if you want jonny I have a lot of spares
