I have the reissue of this kit, any problems with it? Your build looks great. I'd have toned down the chrome under the hood, but that's just me.

Did this one under the Ertl brand many years ago.  You did a nice job detailing a kit that is kinda lacking in detail.  Good Job!  It's always nice to see a model of a Bind-er, don't see many built.

Nothing ever fits……..and when it does, its the wrong scale.

To make mistakes is human.  To blame it on someone else shows management potential.

Midnight: you did an excellent job on that Scout.  Hots off for adding plumbing & wiring.

With the exception of the huge gaps between the body and chassis.

Hey, where's the rust? It ain't a Scout til half the body is falling off! LOL

 I used to own a Scout II in that color, so I built this kit as well. I had a heck of a lot of fun rusting it out and scratching various parts on the engine. I'll have to see if I can find pics of it.

 Nice looking Binder ya got there.
