Default Interesting project - JBA Falcon

Depending what money this fetches, this could be a nice project for somebody here....

Probably not much interest in these old style roadster kits, so it might be a bargain buy and another John Barlow quality kit so should be no major issues getting it finished and tested.

Looks like quite a lot of work is already done, will make a very good starting point if price is reasonable.

Personally I've not been overly keen on the Falcon, just doesn't resonate with me for some reason, don't know why as it's a well sorted kit.

Yep looks like a good starting point. I'm with you JG about the Falcon. I always thought the grill was too wide and dominated the front of the car too much, the quality though was always among the best. Of course John Barlow's later designs were all gorgeous.
