Hi all!
I bought this kit earlier this year. It is a FSM kit #35.
It is old! Like really, really old.....
My guess is that it is as old as me! ;-)
I started the build the last weekend and I have finished the build (sort of....), the doors and light is left to do.
























Feels good!

That looks great as is. I see no reason to add the doors
