So I've started a 1922 Packard from Jordan while the 2020 Quarantine rages on. Mainly I am doing this because I have a limited amount of space on my workbench at home.


These jokers are fiddly.

Jaime....

I have built two of these over the years.......... probably the toughest of all of the Jordans.

You are very brave sir.........

Did you ever notice how many towns are named after their water towers ! ?

Jaime, looks like you already succeeded in getting all four wheels level to the ground. You're already doing better than most of my Jordan builds. 

Agreed, they are quite fiddly, and some more than others.  But gotta love those results. All of my most prized vehicles on my layout currently are Jordans.

Thanks for the kind words.


It's amazing how much detail is in these little jewels.


Once I get the finest of details on (steering wheel, fender brackets and dashboard) it'll be ready for paint.


When I search for Packard trucks on the interwebs I get more results of models than I do the real thing ...

My hat is off to you sir.  ;)  These kits are great but wow, what a challenge. Thanks for sharing.

Nice! I'm sure when these dinosaur's were roaming the earth a piece of film was spent on something else. You'd probably find them in the background of a Shorpy photo.
