Dick Montgomery Posted October 15, 2014 Report Posted October 15, 2014 I'm wondering if any aftermarket company offers a lifeboat for the B-29/SB-29 that carried them for rescue work. Or perhaps there is a B-17 or B-29 kit in 72nd scale that includes the lifeboat as an option.

ewahl Posted October 15, 2014 Report Posted October 15, 2014 Hi, Dick, I have the complete Paragon SB-29 lifeboat set, and I never expect to use it now. It's yours if you want it. PM me and we can make a deal. Ed
Mark Aldrich Posted October 15, 2014 Report Posted October 15, 2014 Dick, No problem. It appears the Academy kit is OOP but it can obviously still be found. Sheesh! Why can't it be that easy when I want an armor kit or set??????
ewahl Posted October 16, 2014 Report Posted October 16, 2014 Hi, Mark, I have the Academy SB-17 kit as well. I found the Paragon SB-29 package inside an original Academy B-29A kit box along with a bunch of other resin and PE things I bought for it. It sounded like Dick wants the SB-29 boat more than the SB-17 boat, so that's what I offered. Ed
Dick Montgomery Posted October 16, 2014 Author Report Posted October 16, 2014 Thanks to one and all....looks like I've struck gold.
ewahl Posted October 18, 2014 Report Posted October 18, 2014 Thanks to one and all....looks like I've struck gold. Something is wrong here. The seller is supposed to strike gold, not the buyer. Obviously I did not charge enough. Ed
