I don't, Karl, but it seems to be a nicely-done, simple kit that builds into a really attractive model. It appears to have a pre-painted body that looks quite good and solves one of the major issues of building a kit yourself.

@mikedetorrice The original builder painted it red, so the new builder stripped it and painted it green for the new owner!

Ooops, Karl, lol, it looks good in either color ! I have only done a few diecast models, and one I painted with an airbrush. They work well yet one needs a painting area/booth of some type or go outside to avoid overspray, etc. The green makes for a very attractive model !
