One of the somewhat limited number of Comet kits that was designed lightly but with strength and this P-40 model could make a good flyer with that long nose. Everything is complete here except for the wire propeller shaft that has somehow fallen out of the box over these many years. All parts are in excellent condition due to safe storage although the tissue should probably be replaced due to some yellowing from age. The box itself is in very good condition if you wanted to display this. I think this model is a very historic airplane and this kit was once a very popular Comet model kit with decades of production run. Buy it to collect or to build !!!
