Arniec Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 That is looking great Les. Can't wait to see it in some colours. I guess the grey paint is the Alclad primer?! The only trouble I have with all the P-51 models is the exit plate from the oilcooler. That is very difficult to get it right. Cheers, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
