Getting back to modeling I purchased an older simpler truck. Estate sale thing at the hobby shop...Never again. After soaking the instructions in vinegar to get the text and drawings visible the paper turned dark yellow or it came that way I don't know. there was a flyer in th box inviting me to join a space program for ten cents just tape a dime on the flyer and mail it..I followed the mapping to the letter however the parts were somewhat warped and were difficult to work with I still managed to assemble it. None of the parts seemed to fit but I wasn't going to let it beat me. The box in the rear as impossible to assemble due to some twisted parts so it became a flat bed. I made Al the beginner mistakes more than once and was grateful it was not one of the nicer cars or vehicles my friends got for me.
