I am a 50+ year model builder with a best friend who was an F-105D pilot in SEA.(200 missions,most to Route Pack Six) A number of years ago,I made him the 1/48th Monogram kit of his A/C which he went nuts over. A few weeks ago, I bought the 1/32 Trumpeter kit of the F-105D to make as my gift to him .
Unfortunately, my health is taking a bit of a nose dive. I am looking for a skilled modeler in the Los Angeles/ Orange Co area as a contingincy plan in the event that I am unable to complete this model.Of course, I will pay for completed service. I have photos of his A/C showing sqdn markings, etc. I live in Huntington Beach CA, so if you have any thoughts, contact me via e-mail. See my profile for address.
