"The Huff"
started out with a standard "F" slatted wing, but later received the
'6-3 Hard Wing at Suwan in 1953.
To create this
version of the F-86F-1, the fuselage was modified where the wings attach by
removing the fairings for the '6-3 wing. The wings and slats from a Revell F-86D
were installed.
The silver is a
custom made lacquer paint, the colors are Model Master Paints, and the decals
are from Cutting Edge, CED-48174
