A rather simple kit with not a lot of details, though the original doesn't give much to work with anyways.
For its age it has a surprisingly decent fit, just a little bit of sanding here and there and only minimal flash on some parts. Raised panel lines, but it is a 1970ies tooling after all.
The decals are, however, not great. Not complete garbage like in some other yellow box Heller kits, but not easy to work with either. Stiff and papery, they don't stick to the surface well and need some convincing to adhere to surface details. At least they don't fall appart.
After market detailing kits and decals are available for this kit, so with a bit of effort this could be turned into a really nice model.

Thank you Bernd, Gary and Ekki.
I am considering doing her again, but with additional parts and different decals and maybe some other modifications.
That little barrel surely has a certain charme to it 😉
