1/32 Galloping Ghost
Posted by xmh53wrench on Sunday, January 8, 2012 1:00 PM

 

Hello, new to the forum, and new to building airplanes.  Been building cars since I was a kid, but havent built anything in over 10 years.  So after learning of the crash and learning more about Jimmy Leeward and the history of the Galloping Ghost, I thought I would build a model of it.  Really great looking airplane with alot of great mods and yet a real nostalgic feel in its paint scheme.  Started out with the Hasegawa 1/32 kit.  Scratch built all the mods and the pylon.  Made my own decals with Testors kit.  Thanks for looking in....sorry the pics kind suck, hoping to take some with a good camera soon.

Welcome to the forums.  Nice representation of the aircraft and a creative display.  Hope to see more from you.

Nice indeed and welcome. Here's a couple of pictures I took of her in 2010. I did not go to Reno last year.
