Me, throw you under the bus? Not unless it was a Mopar bus! Just kidding!!!!
Nothing wrong with what you got there!
In fact, it is wicked cool that you saved it for all these years!!!!
I really dig the paint! I like the fading into the body color!
What you going to do? You're older now, you have the technology (ala Six Million Dollar Man....Oscar Goldman, remember?)
Sometimes with the old models I have, or one that I buy already built, I tear them apart and rebuild them. Repaint, reglue etc....
...but with this one, you could even just put all the parts/box in a case and display it.
Looks wicky cool, Jim!
