JohnT Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 What do you mean "Not Perfect" Looks great to me !!! Nice job and congratulations on the finish I have a Lanc and the Paragon set ready to do the same thing and if I do half as good a job as you I will be well pleased ! Any tips or pointers for anyone following your path? Was there anything difficult to do or was the paragon conversion reasonably straightforwards.

The Paragon resin parts fit very well. My problem was the recessed engravings. The nose glazing fitted less well. What I do not dare, the angle of the wings is changed. good luck and much fun for your Lincoln. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
