Well, it came today.
Whomever it was who said that it was not a "Shake the box" kit was not pulling my leg. However, after looking over the instructions carefully, I can do this fairly easily.
It will take some time, and I know I will run across a few hang ups. Whoever said that the valve gear is already assembled with the deluxe kits, not in this kit, they aren't.
I am sure that I will asking for assistance here and there, but in the end I will have one gorgeous model.
My wife has the camera at some work party, so before I begin assembly I will take pics. I will be adding to this thread over the course of the entire assembly, all the way up to to decals (or them putting the self hugging smoking jacket on me).
Stay tuned...
