Gordon wasn't necessarily referring to Australians. For him up in Yellowknife, everything is "down under."

The LVT-1 is my favourite of the Amtracs and AFAIK the only one still not available in 1/35 (or any scale?) as an injection molded kit.

When you reproduce the instrument panel, are you going to put the wonderful 'THEALLIGATOR" logo on it such as it had?

Default logo

If I remember the alligator logo was made of brass and was bolted on to the instrument panel in the shape of the alligator, not sure how to reproduce it .
