- Question: Thumbs up or thumbs down. PICs Thumbs up means I will assemble it as is. Nothing else done to it. Thumbs down means I will keep the engine, tires and wheels and probably the chassis for something down the road and the rest goes in the trash. 3 attmepts ....
- Re: Question: Thumbs up *NM*
- Thumbs up. *NM*
- Respectfully, Terry, trash it and move on. FWIW, I've finished stuff my gut said "no" to. When I look at--or think of-- it, I only get "P O-d" all over again. Got enough stuff to raise my blood pressure... *NM*
- Thumbs up but do what you want to do. *NM*
- Life is too short, got too much good stuff waiting for me in the stash. Trash it and move on! *NM*
- Perfect diorama or wrecking yard candidate, but as others have said.....your choice lol. *NM*
- Throw a scale tarp over most of it, move on.
- You might just give it a very light sanding to bring the peeling paint closer to scale or just give it a purple bath and set it aside in case you ever need something from it. You know if you toss any of it, in a month or two you will need some part you tossed. ;^) *NM*
- Take the body parts and interior, make it a diorama piece, and reuse the rest *NM*
- Re: Question: Thumbs up or thumbs down. PICs Thumbs up means I will assemble it as is. Nothing else done to it. Thumbs down means I will keep the engine, tires and wheels and probably the chassis for something down the road and the rest goes in the trash. 3 attmepts
