I bought this on ebay UK about 6 or so months ago. The date of the kit is 1969 so the decals (although I coated them in two layers of gloss clear) would not release from the paper backing except the footprints that I’ve put on the roof!

I have found another sheet of decals called ‘Flower Power’, so used those.

Great build Pat. [Y] That really looks like some of the wild machines that were built during the “Flower Power” era. The slicks might have been a little hard to control on the sand but otherwise a fun machine.

Cheers Jim. Thi is the box top, the chromed wheel discs don’t come with the kit just grooved discs to copy Long Play vinyl records!

Very cool. And a nice job

Cheers John.

Hi Pat !

With this kit , I was surprised , maybe like you , to find no chrome wheel discs in the kit ! Just 78rpm records . I stole the Chrome Discs from an old Monogram , Black Widow Rod kit .

Yes Tanker-Builder, I was disappointed. I tried chrome tape onto cut olastic discs but they didn’t look right.
