Very nice subject. I have a couple of AZ Tr.9's in the stash so will watch this one closely.
The Blitzbau House will be open at the same time too. Looking forward to it.

I look forward to this build as its not a kit I have done. I have only ever built one AZ model and that was a pleasure to build so I hope yours builds well.
