Bordfunker Posted March 19, 2019 Report Share Posted March 19, 2019 That’s a very old kit, along with most of the Airfix vehicle kits. I’ve got a half finished DB6 sitting under my desk that I got for Xmas a few years back from the outlaws. Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NonMember Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 I built one the year before last while helping on an SU holiday (I took a load of Airfix kits for any of the YP who wanted to have a go). Then last Christmas my brother gave me another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not put a kit together for 40 years what fun I would recommend using Revell Contacta glue (blue container/'needle' dispenser) rather than a tube of glue (similar to the ones you & I used 40 years ago) - the Revell option is a lot easier to use. The moulds for the kits kits are getting a bit long in the tooth (I think they were first used in 1962) so there is a fair amount of flash and small imperfections to clean off.
