1/72 S-26 Strombecker Curtiss P-40E Pursuit Spotter Model
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
Very rare 1940s wartime 'Spotter Model' in the 'National Defense Model Series.' Strombecker specifically made this line of 1/72 scale kits to fit the 'Official National Spotter or Recognition Program' for civilians and the armed forces for training and identification. This is a high quality, highly prefabricated kit of solid western pine hardwood. The parts are almost completely carved - only final sanding is needed! Includes perfectly carved and smooth fuselage, wings with airfoils in place, pre-cut horizontal and vertical stabilizers, detailed instructions, full size plans with gauges, full color insignia sheet including canopy, sand paper, sanding stick, original small parts envelope and two other envelopes - one with Strombecker wood filler and the other with Casco cement. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes color insignia and instructions. NOTE: the instructions have may closed splits along the fold lines. An order form at the lower left has been removed; the area removed is 4" x 2.5". It does not interfere with assembly. The box is missing two of the small inner flaps.
