Revell Henry J

[chadacuda]

this was an old built-up in pieces I picked up a few months ago
paid around $10 for a box with a total of 3 Henry J Models...

     this built-up,
     one started Henry J
     and one unbuilt Henry J

too nice and too much glue to take this one apart and totally re-build it...
a whole lotta glue on this one
no paint on body, it was molded in blue plastic
many glue smudges on the body were sanded off
removed decals
cleaned and polished it up a bit
a few coats of future floor was...now called pledge 
scratch built front axle with evergreen tubing and 1/16 brass rod
Molotow chrome marker for the wheels

I always liked the kit, I had one when they first came out. I painted it candy green, of course painting it with all the body parts separate the paint didn't come out very even.
I seem to recall that I had difficulty with cutting and fitting the "glass" that might have been an orange tint. It ever got finished and later the chassis wound up under a coup modified.
