    A lot of great memories flooded my mind from 60/70's modeling. Thank you for choosing this one & thank you for photos.

    From seeing your previous posts, I can envision this build turning out just as good as it appears on the box art, Allan.

    Allan, are you going with the peacetime scheme, or the wartime camouflage? Hope the decals are still viable.

    Thanks Robert, Craig, Bernard, Jamie, as the title says Pan American, I hope some Micro Scale liquid decal film will help.

    The decals look pretty good by the photo. I've been using Testors 9200 decal bonder in 3oz spray can to restore old decals, It's part of their decal making system, so far it's worked out well for me.
