Title: Unknown superstructure
Post by: malcolmfrary on July 20, 2016, 08:28:25 pm

A couple of pictures of a moulded superstructure, probably from a tug, that turned up in a mates shed that he told me to clear out after his passing.  Its about 12.5" long, 3.5" wide, and 4.25" high.  Anybody know what it should belong to?  Going off the assumed deckhead height I'm guessing the scale at about 1/32.

Thanks guys, I know that he did a Girl Class several years ago.  It is quite possible that he did his own superstructure and the moulded one went towards the back of the shelf, which accounts for the layer of dust on it.
Just need to find the rest of the instructions for the "Anglian Man" from MMM that he started...........
