Hallo

I am looking for a kit of a Cessna 170. Anyone an idea?

What do I want to build?

One of the early a/c in natural metal.

Thank you in forward. 

Happy modelling

Hi,

 

Either Hasegawa or Roden 1/48 Cessna O-1 Birddog wings, tail and gear with heavily modified Hasegawa or Cessna 172 fuselage or scratch-built fuselage.

 

Cheers,

I would think a good starting point would be the old Monogram C-180 kit, with rounded tail feathers similar to the O-1 Birddog.. The cowl on the Monogram kit is closer to a C-170, than a C-180, anyhow.

Have a look at my thread on converting 1/48 Cessna 172 to a C 180. When you compare plans the Cessna lights are remarkably similar. Sorry the search function is going crazy at the moment so I can't post link.
