WANTED - EXPERIENCED MODEL MAKER
Two stalwart members of our Association have recently purchased a large model of D95. Originally built by Jack Russell some years ago, it is desperately in need of some TLC. Jack is not in a position to help us at present. Can you?
We are looking for an experienced model maker, preferably in the Portsmouth area who can return this model to its former glory. Ideally, we would like to have it on display for Re-union 25.
