This 1949 kit was an interesting challenge. |

Wonderful rendition. Nice to see this forgotton kit constructed in such a fine fashion. Where does one find old Comet kits? |

In 1949 I had a job. Most kids did. I shoveled coal into an auger for the home heating system. This kit probably cost 50 cents. Haircuts were $.75 for a kid. And a nickel got you any candy bar in the store. This is a gorgeous rendition. Really a great build. As we used to say, "The Cat's Ass!" |

Gentlemen...thank you for the kind words. You'd have to subtract 16 from 1949 to get my birthdate. At that time it was the "Cats Meow!!" |
