Gifted kits from a dear friend.
Posted by Geezer on Monday, March 11, 2019 10:01 AM

A few weeks ago, a dear friend came to me at church and asked if i would be interested in a few model kits. He was cleaning out a space in his garage and came across them. He was somewhat secretive about it - I could not say anything to his wife. I then learned they lost a son in the 70s or 80s. Not sure exactly. My guess is these belonged to the son.

They are old. They are in somewhat rough shape and a couple are not complete. I could use a couple sets of instructions if anyone might have them. For whatever reason, I have been unable to find them online.

I received the 

Bandai Jeep

this old german tank kit - it is a mess. Need instructions for this one. . . to see what is missing. 

A Revell OH-6A Cayuse. Groovy kit from the 70s. Need instructions for this one, too.

 This

Revell F-102. 

And, finally a sprue of German figures.

I have the Cayuse instructions in a reissue of the kit. The Sturmgeschutz I built before I started saving instruction sheets. Never built that 102 or Jeep.

Rob/Stik Thanks. Rob, if you have them, I would be happy to come pick them up. Stik, I'd be happy to drive to sunny CA, too. If it wasn't so far.

Tojo72 - It was. More for the special meaning and the friendship.
