Ooh! You got decals! This smells like a full restore! Looking forward to the journey!
Oh, and if you have any parts left over after assembly, I'll help you get rid of them, as I have experience with that!

Looking forward to this one Mr. Dave! I really like the dashboard on these. Reminds me of the AC 180 we had at home.

David, Great attention to detail IMHO.
You mentioned it was for Dad, so that speaks a lot. I can remember when my Dad wanted something done, I would jump through hoops to get it done and right. Probably because of all the crap I put him through as a child! LOL! I wish he was still here to help him today.

Nice job Dave! The tin looks pretty straight so hopefully not a lot of body work needed.
I hope you get to enjoy time with your dad for a long time.
I miss mine every day.
