Original 1959 release Monogram M48 A2 Patton Tank. Retro build.
This kit was partially built and then abandoned by some kid 60 plus years ago. It had many issues: glue smears, parts assembled incorrectly, and a gaping hole in the front of the hull (short shot during injection molding). I corrected everything the best I could and then assembled it retro style, leaving the color of the plastic, and painting in the details according to the instruction sheet. I only used one of the "Big Pat" decals because I think they are a bit corny.
