Hi !

   Using the REVELL ROCKWELL B-1B 1/48 kit , I back dated it to the B-1A version in late 80' ,with the time the white paint got yellow and decided it was time to gave it a little love , using more pic available on the net on this version I upgrade it and repainted it  !.. So here it is ...First you have it in is original white yellowish  and the upgrade version !

 If you like to view more and the WIP of the upgrade , I have made an GOOGLE page for this project , here the link:

I want to say that the B-1 kit was originally issued as a B-1A in one of the flight test schemes. Nice to see yours has found its roots.

Fantastic project -You Are The Man!

I'm building one wings-back, inflight, so you can have the nose gear and ladder bits (except for the hatch itself), if that helps. Do you need the wheels/tires too? Or just the L/G strut parts? Send me a PM with your mailing address, as desired.
