good first model for a 14 year old boy

If he is into hot rods you can get him the revell snap 34 Ford.

I always think of model cars first but, he may like airplanes or Star Wars or any other offerings. More information about what he likes is needed then it's up to you.

thanks for all the suggestions, i decided on the lindburg dodge dakota. I think its a nice combination of some glueing, some painting and not too complicated.

I'm sensing a little bias here... just kidding.

Just get this budding modeler started right, proper handling of parts, how to separate from the sprue without mangling the parts, etc...

And, oh yeah, have fun.
