I didn't realize how old this kit was.  From what i understand it was made in the early 70's.  That explains why the plastic was so brittle.  Excellent kit for it's age.  Engine wired and plumbed, scratch built air filter, refinished in DuPont lacquers,  DuPont urethane clear coat.

Actually, I built one of those in 1964.  JoHan was THE top of the line kit back then(and they still hold up respectably well today).

You've done the ol' girl proud.
