Holy S*$t-- Early Christmas!!!

Good morning, I just wanted to share with you guys my basement find

My neighbor just handed me this--my jaw is still on my desk-- I know that one of the board members has this paint scheme on his blazer.

Anybody else got models of the early Blazers?

I didn't realize those were molded in orange (or is that red?)

Looks like "Hugger Orange"

Everything is still in the thermal sealed bags, instructions, decals.

He said he got it back in the seventies and never assembled it.

I'm still amazed

Yes, cstanley has this real life blazer. I saw it this past weekend at Norwood, MO. Very unique and neat blazer.

Re: Holy S*$t-- Early Christmas!!!

That is just COOOL !!!! I actually had that same kit sometime in the '70's myself. I did not build it and ended up giving it to a friend who forgot what he did with it. They have since re-released that model and I bought it last year. At some point I hope to build it, but I have enough work to do on the full size real version to keep me busy for a while.
