Had some fun with this reissue trying to make it look tattered. Added some scratch-made things to the parts supplied. Can't see them very well due to my bad photography.

Lovely model, with great appeal to many of us old timers who used to watch the TV programme way back in the early 60's.

Great cast. My favourite was the actress who played granny.  Can remember one show where Jethro returned home saying ' What's for dinner tonight Grandma?' To which she replied ' Possum innards!'. Then Jethro asked 'And what about tomorrow Grandma?' To which she replied 'Leftovers!'.

"So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverleee. HILLS that is.''

Top job on this famous Olds Tony. The weathering is spot on. And complete with Granny's blanket!

Awesome. How did you do the blanket?

Thanks for the comments.

The blanket is just a piece of an old flannel shirt folded and put on the bench with Elmer's glue.

Funnily enough, recently I came across an article about weathering this model. It was something I saved out of an old Model Car Science from way back and kept in a folder.
