I picked up this kit of Monogram's '48 Ford Woody at a swap meet some time ago. Although opened, the guy assured me all the parts were there. Wrong! Thanks to Barkster for the tires, and I'm trying to make do with everything else. I should have known when I saw "wood" contact paper in the box for the sides.
Anyway, I'm loving the detail of this kit, and it's going together nicely. I did make the mistake of gluing the frame parts together before I painted. Found out later I had cut the exhaust up to make it fit between the rails. When will I learn?
Wired the engine, thanks to a good wiring discussion in the Q & A section. It's not perfect, but I enjoyed the challenge
More later!
