Gotta love the inter-war years paints schemes, and yours looks like a nice clean build. Thank God Williams Bros. is on its way back, I'm waiting for a number of their 1920-1930s kits to come out. I forget, what scale is this one?

I Worked for Gorden and Granger Williams at the factory in San Diego prior to Grangers passing and the company was sold.

I liked the kits but the detail truly lacked as well as the instruction sheets.

The P-35 was my favorite.

On a side note, Granger had one of the best (unopened) car model collections that I had ever seen.
