Lancer.... 1958 combat . This is not the Sig kit. It is a laser cut contest wood model and takes a Fox 35. Go fly some 50's combat with a period correct I beam model   $100 plus shipping. Walt cut it for me.     SOLD

They are priced at the old pricing I have no ides what they would cost in today's volatile market. This is a new computer and I don't have the ability to post pictures  yet but you all know what a box of balsa wood looks like...don't you?

Dennis,
I know what a box of Balsa looks like, but how do I know you haven't touched it and it is going to hell from the "Kung Flu". ROFLOL
Walt produces excellent kits, I hope you get some new homes for them.

Pat, you know that your kits aren't too shabby either. A lot of designs that are really unique and above the normal stuff that everyone should have one or two of them just to stand out in the crowd with some truly unique models.

Doc,
Shave your beard, look 20 years younger and then live up to the image. You will add 20 years to your life simply because you want to do all the things that will be available to you. In other words we have enough old farts on the forum.
Buy something really good and built it and never look back at a Ringmaster or any of the old stuff that seems to hold the nostalgic seniors locked in the past

Ty,
While I have never met you I have been given a lurid description of you. In old navy talk it has been intimated that you look like you were shot at and missed and s..t at and hit. Say it isn't so . LOL! LL~ H^^ HH%% (PE**)

I've met Ty at VSC and he knows my look.  We just happen to be the ones who got worse in looks as we aged while a few I know got better looking.   Besides he got a year head start on me.  Come Dec. 10 I will be 79.  Never thought I would make it this long H^^

Okay Dennis, I tried again. If it doesn't work, how complete is the f5f? I've always liked the look of that one.

Dave,
The kit is complete less the cowls and canopy. Not a disaster as there is a site where parts are made for foam models and they have cowls and canopy that will finish the model nicely. I'll get the site url and send it to you.
It is up to Walt's high standards and I have never opened the kit as I had built one earlier time from FM plan .
If you want it use pay pal as usual
200 plus shipping. I picked the kit up at Walt's when I went to Florida to see the contest at Jacksonville.
Did I ever mention that I have a fully framed up La Donna. Shipping is impossible
