Humber Super Snipe, Airfix, 1/32nd scale


Monty's Humber


this was new tool back in 1973......i can remember doing it at some point in the late 70s and its been on my list of wanting another go at for nostalgia reasons ever since i took up this modelmaking lark again


at least i shouldnt have to weather this one up since cos its Monty's motor it would have been kept immaculate lol

Looking good Paul. Looks like it comes with a Monty figure too!
