Union KIT, Collection Memorabilia Kit ?

[935k3]

The Heller/Union 917 is one of the worst kits I ever attempted to build.
Yes it has allot of parts but the engraving was not that great and too many thick sprue attachment points to clean up. Yes it had an engine,but is was just a bare block with no engraving. The top was flat where there should be a 3 dimensional fan shroud, the bottom should have cooling fins engraved,the moulded in Fujimi headers look better than the separate Union ones.There wasn't even attachment points for the headers. The tires had raised tread detail instead of engraved detail. The front tube frame is a nightmare to build with absolutely no positive attachment points. The body was decent and the wheels were accurate. Fujimi's kit looks to be much more builder friendly. I love the 917 but I never wanted that kit again, thank God Fujimi made this kit.
