Well done Damian! Matchbox is often criticized for the trench-like panel lines; however, they did have some models as you’ve shown here that had merit. Additionally, the kits went together quite well and were solid once complete. Thanks for sharing and congrats to the winners!

Nice group build gang! Good to see the classics in their glory.

Its great to see experienced modelers pulling the older kits down and giving them the TLC treatment! Model On!
