    This build was a challenge simply because it was a vintage kit. The metal rods included for the wheels were not the correct size, so I straitened out some large paper clips and fed them through the plastic axles to glue the wheels on properly. I enjoyed this build very much, and I can't wait to see what my friend thinks. He dug this kit out of storage and asked me to build it for him. He does not build anymore due to dexterity issues from a stroke. I was honored that he asked me, and I am proud of the way it all came out.
