I started building this 1/32 Revell PA-18 as a L-18c , same as the full size ZU-EMX
There are allot of mods to do , the rear glazing on EMX is different, basically the whole cockpit needed to be scratch built, seats, all the tube members ect.I also added the compass on the glareshield.

This kit is odd as they advertize it as a PA-18 supercub but it has elevaotrs for a PA-14 Cruider, not the PA-18 with the counter weights, also only one wing tank, the PA-18 had a tank in each wingroot.
also no flaps on the kit's wing, all these will need to be made for the one I want to model.

The red block on the firewall is the fuel header tank to the carb.

Mooi Theuns ! . Was wondering when you'd get around to this. Is the 100% article still yours ?

Nice one, always nice to build a model to which you have an emotional connection ... plus you know all the mods required!
