PT-73 from MCHALE'S NAVY

Nice work.

Nice job on the good 'ol PT109, McHale.

Greg, I believe you meant PT-73. Right?

Yikes, I just thought of my mistake and was coming back to edit my post. You beat me to the punch, JT.

Old age is such fun.

PS, now I can't edit the mistake because nobody would know what we are talking about!

And correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the show actually use a Vosper for the running scenes.

Clever, McHale.

THANKS GLAD YOU ALL LIKE IT

I WISH I COULD GET MY HANDS ON ANOTHER ONE OF THESE KITS I WANT TO MAKE A MORE  SHOW ACCURATE REPLICA

Used to watch the show; looks just like I remember it.  Nice work!

thank you

You are going to give it to me aren't you ? I will give you my address after you build ten more ? Just kidding .Very nice build !

Hey G :

You are very observant . They certainly did !

McHale :

  Hey  there , I saw what's hiding behind the P.T. Boat . You found the Minnow didn't you ? The Skipper and Gilligan will be relieved.

thanks tankbuilder

MCHALE,  The Revell 1/72nd scale Vosper MTB kit is the exact same kit, molded in a much lighter gray (almost white) plastic, with different box top art and decals -- it even includes the figures of McHale, Ensign Parker, Captain Binghampton, and Gruber.   Grab one of those Vosper MTB kits, and you've got a duplicate of the kit Revell released back in the '60's as the "McHale's Navy PT 73."

Would your friend be willing to make a couple more sets of those "PT 73" hull decals?  And three or more tiny "73"s, for the cockpit coaming face and sides?  If he is, I'm in.  The decals (and a darker gray paint job) are all that are needed to turn the Vosper MTB kit into McHale's PT 73.

drew i need another one of these kits and i think he could do them again he keeps all the files for all the decals he makes i'll ask him

All we need is Admiral Leadbottom on the pier!  :-)

Nice work.
