The 1941 Indian Scout is one of the classic American motorcycles. Produced by the Indian Motorcycle Company from 1920 to 1949, the scale here is 1:12 with a kit produced by sadly defunct manufacturer Gunze Sangyo. The kit is a classic and cost an arm and a leg, but WHAT a result. The build fought me all the way, lots of fit issues, but worth it in the end. Incredible detail including all the electrics and plumbing. I added others (more electrics, white wall tires).
But this kit did not need much. It was fabulous.
