FRIEND OR FOE? P-51
We
are making these kits available to the general public. They are from
original WWII drawings with additional instructions and assembly photo
sheet. These came about in Great Britain in 1939 when it became
apparent that the anti-aircraft gunners, pilots, observers etc. could
not tell from a distance whether or not an aircraft was a "Friend or
Foe?" These kits are made from solid balsa and take dedication and
skill to build properly. They are like time travel in that most of
these I.D. models were produced here and in GB by high school shop
students. Relive what it was like to be a young person during the 1940s
when most all boys and some girls built model aircraft, ships, cars
etc. They were not cast plastic but real wood! They are not "assembled"
but built by human hands. These when completed, are real works of
art. Most should be able to build one in 8 to 10 hours. They could
even be sold on ebay or given as presents. We also have some of the
tools as optional items which will make your build easier and faster. We
currently have four different model kits available: P-51, Jap Zero,
Spitfire and ME-109. Please specify how many of each when ordering.
The price is $19.95 for each kit, plus shipping of $8.00.
We also have some of the tools to help make the project simpler: German
made coping saw: $19.95, X-ACTO knife set: $18.95 and a cutting mat:
$9.95. Please specify how many of each item you require.
