I have to admit being taken by this machine from the first time I saw it. I think it was Gengris' model ? I have had this old Matchbox kit in the stash forever. Not sure if I got it from one of you guys, from the swap meet I went to in Austin, TX, or maybe at Dean's in Owosso, MI ? But I have it. I think I was holding off building it as I love these old Matchbox kits.
CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Long Live the Commonwealth !!!
Vive les Canadiens !
Where's my beer ?

Looking forward to seeing this C.C. I had the exact same kit, and built it as a mud moving version, in desert cam.  :thumbsup:

I used the Matchbox T55 for my very first VG lightning back in 1998(ish) I used a 2nd Matchbox Lightning (the F 2A / F 6) to provide the outer wing panels as I needed space in the inner panels for the relocated under carrage.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.
