C-45 Strombecker Boeing B-47 Strato-Jet (Stratojet) - 12.5 inch Wingspan Solid Wooden Aircraft Kit

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good++

Classic large 12.5 inch wingspan kit. Made of solid, completely precarved Western Pine - not balsa. Builds up to an impressive display model. Kit includes fuselage, wings, elevators, engine pylons and engine nacelles all cut to shape, wood filler, cement mix, sandpaper, hardwood stand and stand arm. Large and very well detailed USAF decal sheet is very good to excellent condition. The kit has never been started. NOTE: missing rudder, but contains a drawn template in actual size of the rudder. This is an easy part to make from flat wood. Inventoried with all other parts, decals and instructions. Instructions are 'excellent'; even the Strombecker's Model-Makers Club application is intact. Before plastic kits were introduced, Strombecker was famous as the premier hardwood preshaped model manufacturer. In the 1940s and 1950s, Strombecker kits were flawlessly engineered but not inexpensive. All wooden parts are hardwood and are precarved to shape - usually only sanding would finish them.
