by Roberto Colaianni on May 19, 2021 · in Automotive · 14 ≡

Well, this time I had to build something unusual for me: a very old Revell snap kit 1/8 of an Harley Davidson. First of all the strange think is that the commitent, a former Harley owner, would like to have a reproduction of the model, as [...]
