this is the first time i've ever put an "in progress " shot on the site ,but a lot of people said they like looking at them . plus, i haven't seen a dragon wagon come up on the site in a while. ok, theres only one dragon wagon pictured , but there are the remains of three nasty gluebomb dragon wagons in the main body of this. the best chassis i had was missing the front frame piece, and two of the rear slats for the bed. for some reason, the kit had the bed installed upside down, as well as the front axle and all four inner wheels . ( too much glue sniffing? ) .most of the parts i have are pretty rough, so its taking me quite a while to get this far.

Hey Don,
Isn't that the most expensive way to build a kit? Buy three to make one. LOL How many times have we done that. The challenges are greater BUT, so is the satisfaction of completing one. Right?

Looks Good Don. I know how frustrating glue bombs can be.

you're right keith - restoring one can be very frustrating, but in the end , if it all comes together right, you do get a feeling of satisfaction. THAT , and being half scottish,my genetics prevent me from paying the prices that some of these old kits can bring. restoring them is my only hope in getting them ! LOL

Nice work Don! I hope this gets repopped (along with the Dog Catcher) someday because I can't bring myself to pay the eBay prices either But it sure is a cool model!
