Sportster Restoration
It's gonna take more than a "Bronson rock" to repair this Sportster. It was painted green, then partially assembled (very, very sloppily), then smashed. Reminds me of the Sporty that went over the high side in the TCB episode The Forest Primeval.
It needs lots of work. But here in New England, I'll have some time on my hands - when I don't have a snow shovel in my hands. There's a workshop in the heated basement, with lots of tools (not 1/8th scale!).
Check back next month to see how it's going.
For those of you interested in the "Bronson Motorcycle" plastic model, I have found out that AMT, which owned MPC, was bought by ERTL. I sent them an email about the model - maybe they could reissue it in preparation for the 30-year anniversary of Then Came Bronson (1999). Here are their web address and their email/feedback page address:

(Write to them and tell them you would by at least one if they released it, and you would tell your Then Came Bronson fan friends about it.)
