Built by: Bob Schaffer in Linden, New Jersey

I scored this Power Stage "8" on E-bay in the summer of 2004. Amazingly, it went all week with not a bid except mine!

I built the main wood structure and coated it with multiple coats of automotive clear until I had a surface nice enough to apply decals--these are the originals, saved using Microscale's liquid decal film.

After application, the whole thing was sprayed with Testors dullcote. The end result doesn't appear to be cleared and the decals truly look painted on.

The original fabric was applied with 3m spray glue. The remainder of assembly is box stock, save for plug wires from phone wire. This is my favorite of the series.
