Monogram Thunderbird Davey Allison

Finished this one up yesterday. Just a quick and dirty build. I paid 6 entire dollars for this kit at a flea market. Excellent value. Nothing extra here except for some slixx goodyear eagle decals I already had laying around. Decals were not in fine shape and fought me the whole time. Next time I build one of these old kits it may be worth it for me to get a second set. But, it resembles what it should and it was a fun bit of nostalgia for me. 

Thanks for looking!

Nice clean build of a very cool car. Great job Kyle.

Impressive job making those old decals work. I remember building this kit decades ago and didn't have much success with those decals, yours came out way better than mine.

Calvin, thank you! And these decals were a bear just to get them to look as they do here. It made me extremely happy I had never attempted one of these when I was growing up. I’d have ruined it for sure. LOL

Losing Davey made '93 an even tougher year. Nice work on this OOB build.
