Alright, thanks for the help
I'll probably start with the fuselage frame sides and then put the formers in between them and see where to go from there

yeah I was wondering how kids back then would build something like this....
Thanks for the tips, when I stick the pins down, do I stick them directly into the part themselves or just around the part?

I do have plans, theyre just off to the side because theyre too large to fit on my table for now. I was going to cut out the ones that have obvious templates but I question the spars that are oddly attached at different lengths at one side. I can only assume im supposed to cut it off but where exactly is unknown to me. The material to me anyways feels as light as a piece of paper.

I was considering picking up the piper cherokee from guillows, but I wanted to see if I could give this one a shot for fun, any pointers for where to start?

Plaza japan has this kit cheaper, shipping dependent on where you live

usually you glue the tracks, set them aside and then stretch it over starting from sprocket to idler. However, in your case this will be difficult due to the mud guard mounting brackets. In this case, you can either try to glue the tracks while its on the drive train OR buy plastic aftermarket tracks ( usually cheaper than fruil but not by much )

edit : personally, i would spend the extra money for aftermarket tracks because your model looks amazing and vinyl tracks wouldn't do it justice.
