A member of our model club past away a few years ago and his good wife brought in his model stuff to be dispersed among the gang.One of the exec.members gave me this old Duster,and I do mean old!
There were no instructions,no box,just a bag of parts.
It came with a motor,all hatches worked and wider tracks that didnt look right compared to the Tamiya Duster I had built back in the 80s.

[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v612/sas/duster4.jpg[/img] ....and the size of the final build was bigger,like 1/32.

Looks good, but weren’t parts in a box with the name of the manufacturer ???
Anyway, this is another proof of how old (inaccurate) kits can turn out to be beauties.
Looks like the old Revell 1/32 scale Duster. Came out looking pretty good.
I think it is the old Revell kit, this was my first armor build wat back when.

Nice. I really like the one Palm tree. Fantastic ground work.

Thanks guys,no,I didn`t see anything stamped on either the inside or outside but it does fit the Revell style come to think of it,many thanks guys,mystery solved! Figures btw are the old Multipose GIs,happened to have a few kickin around. The one tree again is made using feathers dyed with green paint for the palms.
Is it perhaps the old Renwal 1/32 M42? Revell reissued it later, as well.
Amazing dio, Sasd!
Well Russ, once again, just outstanding work!
Good work…getting it all into a small footprint is hard…you have done well there !!..very well
AJ
great work, it’s beautiful.
Thankyou everyone,the plastic was a little thick on it too.
Sounds like the old Renwal kit, nice to see an old kit built to look so good.
Wow, very nice work all around on this one for sure! [tup]
J-hulk and grandadjohn got it right. It is the old Renwall kit. Think Revell released it later under their banner.
