It's gonna take about a sheet and a quarter of 1/4" pine ply, plus various chunks of solid pine, and fabric, and then all that paint. Prolly about 45 pounds...

New in box Guillows B-29 Superfortress.
This is a Build and Show kit not intended for flight. But, you know how us RC guys are, it is meant to fly if you can fit an engine in it!!!
Warning, to make this fly, you must have extensive knowledge and skill in building and electric conversion, but if your a beginner and think you can do it, I'll be happy to take your money!
Great for electric RC Micro conversion!!! Good luck finding one of these outside of Ebay. Very rare and extremely rare to find in such great condition!!! I have opened the box twice. Once to peak at the plans, and once to take the pictures. All plastic, wood, plans, instructions, hardware, etc still in the box, 99.6% of it untouched since packing at the factory! I guarentee that everything is there and in great shape, or I'll refund the price plus shipping back. I will not refund shipping damage or damage by the buyer.
Don't miss out on this awesome large kit with a 53" wingspan and fantastic detailability!
I will ship free if you purchase at the, "Buy It Now" price

Re: GUILLOWS *B-29 SUPERFORTRESS* MODEL KIT on E-Bay
Must be getting close to Christmas. Typically a bad time of year to be cruising ebay in search of a "rare" Guillow's kit.
Some lucky ebay-er only paid 53 bucks for this kit a little over two months ago. My guess is that the seller might have gotten a higher price if he'd put "Guillow's" in the auction's title. Searching every ebay listing under "B-29" or "Superfortress" could get a little tiring, but I guess it might be a good way to find the best price. Sorry if I gave away anyone's secret!
