Triang Minic Push and Go Hawker Hunter

[Athro]

I bought this broken jet off ebay very cheaply - I believe it is from the 1950`s
Pics show how it was and how it is now.
I cleaned up the friction bay. straightened the very bent axle - made a new tail wing and scratch built a new canopy and put on a new nosewheel I had laying around
I also put on new vinyl decals on the wings
After all these years it still goes like a dream

Nice recovery.

Well I like the hunter as it says something on the wing you don't often see nowadays made in England

When I read axle, I thought what ? now I see. That's a very interesting little item you have there.

I had one of those when I was a nipper!
